Red Tinted Glasses

Dont get me wrong I am strongly opposed to these changes which by all accounts appear to be going through. I am just trying to find a shred of something positive in all of this. It looks like they are going to force this change upon us and all this talk of a 100 million investment may well be pie in the sky. I was wondering is it true that the most that can be invested in players is now £6,000,000? Leicester had £14,000,000 this season and it didn't do them any good. My lucky colour is black but im not always in the black having worn it to the bookies.

Surely if a club that has dropped down keep their existing players but still have the same £6,000,000 cap, they have a huge advantage anyway? Can somebody explain to me if this is right and what the rules are now on spending in the Championship. By the sounds of it if we had a billion to spend it would still be a huge task to get to the Prem anyway. Whats the point of a 35,000 seater stadium when there is nobody to fill it?

If something looks to good to be true it usually is. If Tan loves the fans and the club that much why would he rip the heart out of it unless he could smell money. He didnt become a billionaire by winning the Malaysian lottery, it dont pay out that much ive checked.

Perhaps a few people need to wake up, take off their red tinted glasses and and have a look at the real world.This club is simply a business opportunity to him and were along for the ride, which is more of a horror ghost train drenched in red than the traditional roller-coaster. :o
