I would've thought ITFC fans would perhaps be a little bit reticent about big changes, but it seems as though almost everyone wants Gamechanger 20 to take majority ownership.
Just ask yourself, why? Why would a group of US investment brokers and asset managers be interested in purchasing ITFC? They have no connection to ITFC or to Suffolk, and not much connection to football, so what are they hoping to do? Why are they doing searches on the land ownership around our training facilities?
If we had a potential investor who was genuinely a real football nut, and had tens of millions money to splurge, I would love to see it. I just don't see anything like that with these Americans and I'm worried that they will asset strip the club and ruin us. In my humble opinion, ME has been far too involved in tinkering with football matters, and has in the past not picked the right managers. But he has provided enough dosh for us to have the best squad in League 1 . Better the devil you know - I would be happy now to see what Paul Cook can do, and see if we can get promoted without selling out to people I don't trust. |  |

We don't have any assets.
There's a bit of ground owned by Evans and ok, if he's being honest and wants to protect the club by refusing to sell that bit of soil until he's sure who they are and what they want, then credit to him.
He will have fulfilled at least a part of his promise of custodian.
But the worth of that land may run, what, into the hundreds of thousands [?]*, and for a US consortium to go to all that trouble for that?
If Evans wanted a return on that land he could just sell it himself for development if permission was viable.
That sounds more far-fetched than the romance and possible returns of taking on an English football club lock stock and barrel.
Would they purchase an entire club with the sole intention of doing the dirty and giving themselves a reputation and a potential load of grief too?
* I have no idea what that land is worth as it stands. |
