God there are some hypocrites on here. Birmingham were good landlords to us when were in the shite with SISU. And if Tom Brady rocked up here with his cash I suspect it would be a very different tune.

In fact a Tom Brady is exactly what we need because DK does not have the pockets deep enough to keep us in the Prem were we to get there. Actually Sheik Ali Ben TomBradikov or something like that coming on board would be just the ticket.

What on earth is this? Firstly Tom Brady is just a face to 'legitimise' the takeover, he owns around 3%. He's a celebrity face for their cringe owner to try and create a Wrexham 2.0 story, but unfortunately no one outside of America gives a fuck about Tom Brady.
Secondly, if Tom Brady was the owner, his rumoured net worth is lower than that of Doug King.
Basically its hard to know where to start with this.

Tom Brady doesn't either. All he's done is attracted outside loans at interest rates of around 12%. They are never ever going to be in a position to make a profit so will just end up being a heavily indebted zombie.

In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if the authorities are held to ransom over investing in the new stadium as a way of securing BCFC's existence.



The amount owed to Brady and friends in the current accounts is £72m, that'll be £82m by the end of next year without even a further penny being borrowed.

Lets be honest, the new stadium is nonsense. It's nothing more than a PR stunt to attract external investors.

I think you're being a bit unfair to Gibbo guys. Regardless of stake, he's certainly raised awareness to a new audience and may attract other investors. The 3% he's been gifted if it becomes 3% of a bigger value because he's involved, then it was certainly worthwhile however crass it looks.

Tom Brady has 333 non voting shares in the blues which is 3.3% of all shares, he's basically there so they can just say "look Tom Brady" and that is about all.

Anything but a 60k stadium i'd imagine. What they're proposing is completely absurd and isn't financially feasible.

Didn't lose loads of his money as well as he fell for a crypto con?

I didn't know that but if he's stupid enough to think being the face of Birmingham City is a positive thing then I can't say I'm surprised.
