I honestly don't see the lack of a ground as the stumbling block to someone with the kind of wad that is giving Guo Guangchang a hernia. People with pockets that deep will invest to get a long term return, and you've got a decent fan base if the product is right. His only problem would be how he goes about "buying" the council's cooperation. WASPs seem to have set a trend - I'll wager CCC would welcome anybody but SISU to turn CCFC around.

In terms of other assets, forget the ground, the players - the asset is the golden share. That's potentially worth an absolute fortune.

Leicester didn't own their ground when they were bought out.

In the same way that Wasps don't own the ground - they were the tenant on a long lease.

But the owners then purchased the freehold IIRC.
Obviously that's not available to anyone buying us, but building a new stadium maybe.

Man city don't own the etihad they just rent from the council. I'm pretty sure when they first started playing there they didn't have to pay rent if they got over 36,000

It was tied to the capacity of Maine Road. Basically along the lines that Man City only benefitted if more people turned up than they could fit in before. Before it was renegotiated weren't they paying a certain amount per ticket sold over 36K?

Literally the players, the name and the golden share to play in League One.

I believe whoever buys the club also inherits all of its debts?
