As reported by the Tizer here's who they are. Have to say I don't like the fact they've got their financial fingers in three other clubs. I suppose I can rest easy in the fact they wouldn't take any of our current lot and ship them out to China....

A very "buzzwordy" statement that won't particularly resonate with football fans.
Don't really know what to think about this to be honest. -
Far Eastern money involved? Sudden Lee Sum Ting Wong springs to mind.

Maybe if demands weren't as high last time with the Yanks consortium, this would have been well over with 2 seasons ago and we wouldn't have been in our current position.

Mmmmmm ! not very reassuring that methinks !!
Takes the club somewhere uncertain but we won?t be the first !!!
Needs sorting sharpish thoComment

Other clubs they are involved with never heard of. Doesn't sound to me they'd invest the funds needed to for us to progress?Comment

I found it very interesting, and rather intriguing.
As a rule, if you're investing in something you expect a return, ie a profit,football clubs,especially ones in the EFL generally lose money, so what's in it for them ?
But there's no doubt this is what the club needs, so let's see what happens.Comment

Multi-club ownership can bring some benefits (if run well), but it can also lead to smaller clubs ending up as feeders to the larger teams in the structure. I'd also flag concerns around governing bodies tightening up on how these structures operate, and the danger of ownership groups having the ability to create profits for other businesses/holding companies set up to 'manage' the organisations. They can be very opaque, and given the consensus with our fans on needing more transparency and communication, this may be a very poor fit for a club like ours.
Put me down in the cynical camp for now.Comment

After Hall & Martha I'd give anything to do with Europe a wide birth.Comment

What has Hall done wrong?? Sometimes I wonder if some fans only stick with the club to rip the players apart.Originally posted by RU66 View PostComment

Complete *******s. A severe hamstring injury for a few weeks, and a single game in September. Chased and got stuck in as much as anyone between times.Originally posted by RU66 View PostComment

Hall has played 22 league games that is under 50% we need players that play 70 to 80 percentage of league games. The poor level of availability of players has to be a major criteria for who we try to move on and who we recruit. Also every players should have strict fitness and health plans in place. Hall decent player doesn't play enough games but I expect him to be sold anyway before the window closesComment

Not to split hairs, but he participated in 28 of 46, and played in 27. Massively immaterial in any case, because... and I know this obviously doesn't seem to register with some of our 'fans', but... players... get... injured. It happens. Some cry off because the weather is damp, and some get actual injuries. Hall had one bad injury. He was available for all except three games in the previous three seasons.
I swear, if I ever manage to find a player we own who doesn't attract misplaced negativity from our fans, that's the day I'll crack out the champagne. What a fanbase.Comment

Hall wasn't brought up in the intensity of our game. You can see that at his age he should be able put a run of games together without getting injured but he failed to do. I'm hoping him & Martha are gone before the start of next season.Comment
