Wolves are for sale and Darlo wants some smooth thighs

[FrankMunro-371]

That is a very easy soundbite.

Leicester City owners, when the club got promoted promised to spend "£180m". They didn't - they have had a significant spend, but nothing like that. And look at their success level this season (early days but the signs are brilliantly encouraging).

Reading have had ups and downs with rich owners don't forget. I would love to see how they propose to spend "hundreds of millions". I can't imagine Messi pitching up in Theale any time soon.

When Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha bought Leicester City, I said that his aim was to make Leicester a top six side. Most people thought I had taken leave of my senses, but believe me his investment thus far is loose change compared to what he will put into the club if they achieve European football.

He is wisely biding his time on the investment. Do it when it pushes on to the next level I guess.

Tbf I think they said they'll spend £180m over like 5 years which all of is laughed at and said they'll had to spend that evey year.

Is Cyber not saying buy a club for £40m spend £80m on getting the club promoted and then your investment is now worth £140m?

1 Yes I am and the investment is more. You get the club plus 140million from TV so in fact if the club is solvent and well run the risks are reduced

If he is that is massively simplistic

I agree it is. But given all the detail the fact is that this is quite achievable with Wolves with a reduced risk given the rewards awaiting in the promised land

It might be the cider but I reckon these brothers will buy us, sack KJ, give our new manager (maybe Pearson) £20m to spend in January, we'll get some great players, win the league, and end up in Europe in 3 years.

Kevin Muscat fronting a bid?

Source?

Source?

WM apparently. He's head coach at Melbourne Victory, I assume the main me would be whoever owns them?

 

[Lycan]

Just checked MolMix and the ITK ones are all saying it as well.

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

Kevin Muscat fronting a bid?

Whaaaaaaat?

Wonder how that would go down if true

 

[thehistorymakers]

You're right about the development around the ground, but she has said that they have football aims as well.
May all be talk, but here it is:-

There already is a hotel infront of their ground and thousands of new flats.

 

[Derby Wolf]

The chairman of Melbourne Victory is a guy called Anthony Di Pietro... I can find next to nothing on him outside of the club website and Wikipedia doesn't show his net worth. I've read one proper sketchy website saying he's only worth 750k though so fuck knows. They have a guy called Harry Stamoulis on the board who is worth 480m and is trying to sell his stake in them..

Nope.

Meanwhile, BT Sport are reporting that Steve Morgan is ready to accept £30-40million for Wolves.

 

[Penk Wolf]

He was at the training on Friday. Replacement for Jacket was more the thoughts though.

Muscat is ace!

 

[malta mick]

give the muskrat a go !! he can bring deputy dawg as his assistant.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

You sure on this one? As Melbourne had a game on Sat morning our time. Also why would a potential Ken replacement be allowed to stalk the training ground.

He was definitely there. The rest was guess work, which if rumours above are correct then the guess was wrong.
