Tans 25 million quote?

Does anyone actually believe that's the the rough figure our budget will/could be?
I don't i believe it could be much more than that but Tan won't show his hand or clubs will increase the price of the players we are interested in.

I think he was put on the spot with that question and plucked the sum out of the air. I doubt very much he would have had an idea of whats needed to be spent at the time of the question.. If it is 25mill though, then spent wisely and I think it would be more than enough to build the next stage of our squad and keep us up

We can buy Fellani for £27 million so we only need to borrow £2 million :lol: :lol: :lol:

Was discussing this with a mate last night. He's never going to be truthfull about this, as soon as Cardiff come knocking the price of the players will go up if clubs think we have millions to spend!! I really think he is down playing it with the 25 mil quote!! 40-50 would be my guess!!

Well 25mill at the least now is say, could stretch to 30-35million maybe depending on how transfer dealings start to pan out?

It is my guess the guy needs to make at least 200 million if he is to pay Hamman and turn his loans into equity as i am sure it has been documented that he spends 100 million on his annual advertising budget so with a 3 billion audience watching Cardiff in the Premiership and naming rights for the C C S coupled with the inclusive 160 million for winning promotion that would go some way to wiping the slate clean and leaving a decent kitty of say 25/40 million transfer budget :thumbup: .

Like most things directly attributed to Tan its just hearsay.Makes good sense not to tell anyone how big your pot is.
