Don't you think he would have sold you this season then if he had a buyer? If he wants out surely he would have been on the lookout for a buyer already.

Now he finds himself possibly £140 million out of pocket and back at square one...

Don't know mate, I'm just going by what is being printed In Here, that the club is 100% up for sale. I haven't got a clue if he is looking to sell up or not, but if he is, then I can't see how he would get anywhere near his money back if we are a struggling championship team (if indeed he is looking to sell) so just my oppinion , that he will probably back another push for promotion next season... Even if it means only money made from transfers to be used on strengthening the squad, which would probably be more than enough for another stab at promotion, if we sell caulker, medal and one or to others, the manager, could build a promotion squad with a good few mill to spare...that's what I think tan will do anyway, and if we look like being promoted early like last season, then if he does want to sell and has a buyer lined up, that would probably be the time to do it for him, probably also be the time when he turns debt to equity

whose telling us the club is up for sale at £140 million? Could this be more fiction? Been lots of fiction on here lately as today's press releases indicate. To be honest I wouldn't believe a word anyone said on here most of what is written is a fabrication in peoples minds isn't it? :laughing6:

Exactly! But with the lack of support the only logical thing is for Tan to sell. But the club isn't sellable, so if he sell our most attractive players he will get some money back. The rest of his depth have gone in to infrastructure and makes the club marked able. As long as we don't return to blue, the fans will still be devided, and how do you see us getting promoted next year with the debacle we have had this season? Nope, both Tan and Ole is leaving :thumbup: :bluescarf:

£10 million won't guarantee promotion though will it. Don't you think it's more likely he'd think twice about splashing the cash again? After all, he's back where he started after spunking £140 million against the wall.

To be honest I doubt he was going to say all of his players are shit and he hopes he can sell them all :lol:

From today's press conference I don't agree. He clearly stated he was going " to do I my way", and clearly stated times of big changes. Only, he won't get the chance :thumbup:

Why are you so adamant Tan and Ole are going like you're ITK?

Only logical conclusion when neither have support, ain't it?
