Leicester threw a lot if money at it (Without changing colour I might add) and they were nowhere to be seen.


But watch them next season. I for one don't associate the investment with promotion. It's about taking the club forward and ensuring survival. If promotion comes then great, but only if we have a chance if staying there. All the malaysian backing gives us is a chance but it's a chance worth taking. I'm yet to hear a proper argument against other than hyped up nonsense and bleating about selling out.

No, we don't. What does this tell you about the intentions about this man? I, for one, don't believe for a second that he has any good intentions!

Im yet to here a proper argument why they can invest 100m only if red other than superstition and one mans whim what proper reason is there for such radical changes?

I do. I think he wants us to get in the prem and become a regular Prem team (like Stoke have done), then perhaps sell us on.

No. I preferred when we were in league 1 and the dungeon actually.

Less plastics more hooligans.

Ill only believe the 100m when I see it as well.

Quite pathetic a shareholder will only invest if he can change the colour and nickname tbh.


Not as pathetic as your post. Those days are long gone but explains your stuck in the past bleating. We have literally 20000 more fans attending games than when we were in the dungeon. All they all plastics? If so just how many non plastics do we have?

I'll just about adapt to the red kit but i certainly won't be shouting red army at the games. We'll always be blue army/bluebirds to me.

If these are his intentions, and you may very well be right, that show his reason to invest and his absolut contempt for the tradition and symbols of the club. A football club has a soul and is a great part of people's lives, you can't just buy it, shape it the way you like and then try to sell it again.

You know what it was probably late 80s early 90s but we were around the 3000 avg sometimes less But at times we may have been in the 4000's. Don't be ignorant as well as stupid. Probably asking too much though. Fool

Name is just one part if identity.

Michael Jackson kept his name but changed his colour and he was never looked upon the same.
