Wardie Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Obviously, Frank paid 1M for the badge and 11M on Unsworth and his team. Seriously, it's no use speculating on the machinations of the sale whilst intimating there is something amiss and the whole thing has gone tits up. I assume we will hear when there is something tangible to be told. At the moment, I am really more concerned about matters on the pitch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pidge Posted February 16, 2023 Share Posted February 16, 2023 Maybe Frank also included the cost of purchasing the businesses, the gym, the OEC etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shrek Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 Debt, land, facilities, businesses, the club and it's outstanding costs (contracts etc), budget for improvements around the ground and the team. I can see how that could get to £12mill when it's all done, quite quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We all owe Frank our thanks and gratitude for what he has and is doing for our club despite opinions about Unsworth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get your drift and respect your concern but maybe a tad on the pessimistic side? I'm sure the successful businessman that he is will ensure everything is done properly, no matter how long it takes. Why fret about this when, as football fans, we really need to be immediately concerned about matters on the pitch? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could do a non league version. Get the lad off Corrie that makes cheese to sponsor the main stand. It could be the Hard Cheddar stand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange that a deal can take 8 months if it's just a straight forward ground and land purchase. Chelsea were sold, lock, stock and barrel completed in about 6 weeks and was worth about £4 billion all whilst the seller had his assets frozen from the government. Don't understand why it's taking so long. On 2/16/2023 at 11:02 AM, PeteG said: We know that! When Frank was asked on ITV how much HE PAID for the club and the ground, he said £12 million which he actually corrected to £13 million within seconds. He was talking shit of course because at that point he hadn't even purchased the ground and still hasn't. Bump! Isn't it about time you stopped listening to the blubbernaught that used to be our failed senior director he's making you look like abit on a nob.
