RB Leipzig: How did Red Bull build a Champions League side from scratch?
First, let me say, NO truth / knowledge of this - idle consideration on a rainy day after reading the BBC report.
It is entirely fictional....but, given the current situation, who would be willing to have red bull takeover the club?
Positives - probably build a new ground (called the red bull arena), in Coventry. Money pumped in, so likely to be settled in championship or even perhaps a lower end premier team - all within ten years.
Negatives - renamed RB Coventry, kit change in colour, links to other foreign clubs (with us as a possible feeder in first few years)?
I personally can't decide....if we go back to Ricoh in championship next year, I can only see financial struggles in the future, without a real home.
If we are still in league one / st Andrews in the next few seasons, any recent momentum will be lost and the large gap between us and upper championship will just get wider.
Alternatively, other owners/new stadium in Coventry...all unlikely.
