So if rafa loves the toon so much

Surely the whole point about that though is that in the Chimpo he won't get the television exposure for his TAT company which to my mind is the one and only reason he is here and staying here until he can get compensation for the TV exposure he would lose with another owner who would obviously want to sell all of the valuable advertising space Ashley is gobbling up.

Incidentally although we don't like it you can't blame Ashley for getting away with it while he can.

Fair remark, but my take on pboros point (though he posts in the style of headlines rather than conversation so I may have got it wrong) is that you buy a chimp team cheap, invest 30 million for promotion to the PL and suck the sky TV money titts for much less than it would tke if you paid the 3-400 million for an estabished PL team. Thats if I deciphered his morse code correctly.

I dont agree with all his points, but like I say even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

Ashley is getting away with it as you say because he is being allowed to. Rangers fans didnt take it so why are we?

I see the point but the numbers don't add up because you could take say a poll on here to select the three Chimpo teams to get promotion next season and you would get dozens of different combinations.

With a push and a bit of luck almost any three from two thirds of that league could make it so if you spent millions on a possible contender you could just miss out season on season and then languish down there.

Few would have selected Derby this season for example over Nottingham Forest who finished a dismal 17th.
