    It’s easy to find. Loans not repaid from JP reign. A further £5m loan not repaid this year. New date for repayment set early 2023.
    Club looking at a £25m loan at 10% interest to fund January transfers.
    Players sold on deadline day with no replacements. “Paperwork” blamed twice

    I do hope it continues boingy. The situation in China is growing worse by the day and I can see this been a distress sale before lone, which might suit us as investing in football is now proving to be a major health risk. Hopefully he will consider the genuine offers out there.

    Nothing public. But rumored to have been approach by at least one interested party last year and perhaps another inquiry this year.

    He doesn’t need to sell.

    Whilst average crowds of over 20,000 turn up and he can sell off our better players now and again AND continue to leverage the club with these insidious and high rate “loans” he can ride this pony for a good while yet.

    Then there’s the ground and training ground.

    I think we can all be comfortable in knowing Lai will get back every Penny he paid for us by whatever means necessary.

    FOL.

    I am sure we don't own the training ground land, it is on lease from B'ham uni

    He’ll sell the training bibs and the balls on eBay.

    He will rinse every last cent from us.

    I’m not great with football finances. Can anyone explain what they think is happening?

    How does this £25m loan help Lai? If he pockets the cash and leaves the club with the debt, surely that’s £25m plus off the sale price.

    Is this suggesting he won’t sell and take pockets of cash out of the club?
