As of June 2019 (last accounts) it was £4.7m (not including the money he spent to buy the shares)

Why do you think he's taken over Dundee Utd? Anyone who takes over a football club must realise you are not going to make back any kind of investment to the value you put in, therefore you are spending money with little to no return. If he genuinely thinks he's going to make millions from us then he got it wrong well before the Pandemic arrived.

Yeah, i couldn't give French fancy what the media think (how good are French fancies BTW, ooft!!!).

It's not a slagging of the owner either, it's genuine concerns about our club and how it's being run. He may prove me wrong entirely, I just have this gut feeling about the whole thing.

He can buy and sell me a million times over but by phuck he's got a lot to learn,FACT.

That is fair enough I agree with that and also can't see how he think he is going to make money out of utd?Only way I could see is to make us loads better then sell up for more than he has invested.I do not agree that he should be expected to just keep writting blank checks till he runs out of money and don't agree that the foundation should just keep collecting money in a bank account while utd are struggling to survive in a pandemic.

Cheers mate he has pumped £4.7 plus money he spent on shares and the money he has put in since last accounts I honestly think he is doing his bit for the club and really can't understand why some think the foundation putting in £100,000 or a £1,000,000 or any other amount they can raise is wrong?I know peter and other trolls pop on and slag utd fans for giving club money but we know what they are like with money.

My main concern is that MO is in this for the wrong reason. He wants to make money. I dnt see how this is ever going to happen as there is always the chance that he will up sticks and walk away.

I said this very thing on here when he arrived and talked about making profit.

Honestly I am not a business man and don't have a clue why he bought utd he says he has a plan to make money but I can't see it know fergus mccann said the same and everyone in scotland piss.. theirselfs laughing at him me included.Still don't think he will make money from utd though but really don't think he took over just to get rid of tens of millions of pounds what he has already put in never mind if he does keep signing checks till end of season is an awful lot of money.

I agree foundation is a great thing as is the money and support of the ogrens which is substantial and the reason why we are in the premier league at this time

Let’s stick together - come on United !!!

That to me is a far bigger worry than asking the foundation to release some money to help out.What happens if he does decide he has invested enough can't see anyone else moving in at the moment so we fu..ed.Hopefully he plays the long game and see's out this pandemic and takes it from there .Don't know how much more money he will wan't to punt into what no one on here can see ever making him a profit though.
