Easy to make that claim without providing anything to back it up...


I do believe there has been an approach. Pete alluded to it in that half hour interview he did and even went as far as saying that it was a non-starter because of the the way the game is set up regarding dual ownership,

While most will obviously scoff currently at the thought of one day being denied European football because of the risk we might meet our sister club’s in Leipzig or Salzburg, if Pete’s genuinely serious about leaving a legacy, then it would be ruined in one fell swoop by a future generation being denied football at the highest level. Whatever the benefits, imposing a glass ceiling on this club is not in his brief. He’ll find another way to get the funding.



He did, if I recall correctly, in that video say that we have to be investable, so I can only assume he is indeed open to funding from another source

Fair point.

I was part of the initial meeting that took place and know what was asked for ahead of it, it wasn't much as it was a show round the new ground during the building phase, and these minor requests weren't taken on board.

Anything outside of this i don't know.

Interesting - thanks.

What sort of requests?

So, you’re talking about Red Bull* investment being on the agenda in 2006 or so?

The discusssions I was alluding to we’re in the last twelve months.

Am I right in assuming that’s who you’re talking about, even?

Can't be bothered with Bb56 getting air time, tbh. Quick 101 it is.

Sounds like Yoda. 8-)
As a matter of interest when this occurs does the person receive an email thanking them for their contributions but saying their services are no longer required? Or is it phrased rather more strongly?
Or is it just they can't log on one day and they have to work out why? (Even if it does take some of 'em a while).
Anyone know?

Better than MK fucking Dons. I hate the fact we took the Dons name. Didn't even keep the fucking kit colour so why the Dons bit.

Never liked it. I think it just stokes the fires.
