Believe me or don't 15:28 - Jan 3 with 19120 viewsCOYBitfc

But I have it on very good authority to ME is in discussions with 2 interested parties concerning potential take over. 1 has been a fairly long term discussion and the other relatively new in comparison.

I guess with it being no secret that he'd sell if the deal was right that it's expected that he'll be having such discussions.

Will they come to anything though?

From what I'm told by the board intelligentsia, there is no possible way to sell a football club, no one will ever be interested in buying ITFC even if it were, and Marcus Evans will, by necessity, have to own us in perpetuity. So I remain sceptical of this one.

I don’t think he’s prepared to drop his asking price ( not sure what that is tbh) but he always said when / if Club was sold the debt will be written off.

Wonder if there’s any more in this Gadolphin rumour then?

The other thing is , would any new owner be able ( allowed ) to put more money in than Evans already is currently doing? I think he said in an interview that he is limited to what he can put into the Club by the FFP rules , ( we seem to be one of the few that adhere to it!)

F*** me I wish this was true, never wanted something so much in my life.

If someone bought the club from that man it would be up there with the best things that have ever happened to me. (see below)

1. England winning a penalty shootout in WC 2018
2. The birth of my daughter
3. Play off final win

I for one look forward to seeing if you are right or wrong. You may be right.

My sources tell me the Oystons are looking to step up.

is is 30 or 45 million over 3 years?

Evans puts in around 18 million roughly over that period it appears.

he has the unenviable position of choosing between continuing to lose money over the long-term or taking a big hit in the short-term.

I'm not sure he's the ogre as many make out, but I don't have any sympathy for people like him who try and use football clubs to make money.

it really does depend on who comes in, if it's some hot head who fires managers every half season, then not for me.

For all Evans' faults he gives managers time, sometimes too much!

This is the problem. I can't quite remember exactly but the losses can't exceed £39M over three years right?

We currently lose around £6-8m with only little investment in transfer fees. We really can't spend that much whilst our income is so low.

If you were a true Town fan you'd buy Norwich.

How can you not think he will drop his price if you don’t know what it is? He will get out if at all possible. He knows he is incompetent in this area.

But if you get better players who play better football and you are towards the top of the league attendances will rise as will turnover.

See Derby for an example of that where they are averaging about 10,000 more per game which is circa £300k per home game more than us and £7M over a season.

While I agree that good performances lead to better attendances, there's also the small fact that there's 100k more people living in Derby than Ipswich.

We are stuck with Evans until Evans wants to sell it.

In no scenario are we better off with him gone unless somebody richer (or at least more prepared to spend more) wants to buy it.

Anyway, just because someone can afford to buy it, it doesn't mean they would plan on funding it to the level that some on here are expecting/dreaming of.
