Sounds very similar to the Weds set up and investments over the years. Not right good these far East folk at trying to enter the English game.

It makes you wonder how we as a club would have turned out if someone pumped that amount of money into us, with the right management of course.

Wether it’s £50 mill or £22 mill as stated above you have to wonder where Wycombe are getting the money from.

I kept with the original valuation of the training ground.

Is the £22m spouted a price offered Caytonmiller.

Wether it’s £50 mill or £22 mill as stated above you have to wonder where Wycombe are getting the money from.

American lawyer Rob Couhig holds 90% of the shares of Wycombe Wanderers, under Feliciana EFL Ltd.

Wycombe Wanderers Supporters Group Ltd hold 10% of the shares.

The ground Adams Park was left in a legacy by former owner Frank Adams to the fans, so it can not be
sold without permission of the Frank Adams Legacy Board

So the money coming from the American Lawyer Rob Couhig.

Couhig said in July 2023, that he would sell his shares within 4 years of Wycombe Wanderers FC

The £50m amount is what the training ground has cost to build.

Statement - Reading spent approximately £50m on the facility, which first opened in 2019.

A sale to be completed, no figures have been confirmed, but rumoured around £20m - £25m

I would image land value is a good chunk of that. £50m is a lot of money to have spent on just the pitches/buildings/lights...
