Honest opinion on this 100 million investment?

Tue May 22, 2012 2:29 pm

Now we all know for many years Cardiff City have been like a leaking pot when it
comes to money!!! This is an honest question would anybody on here put one eighth
of their total wealth into a football club? I know I wouldnt and if our backer is a self
made man I wonder why as self made people tend to enjoy and like to keep their wealth!!
Is there so masterplan for Cardiff to become a world domineering force in British football?
As I am sure our bakers know that theres many clubs where investment have gambled big
and got very little back? I am a little scepticle to be honest!
Respect and Regards

My season ticket costs £329 which would be easily equate to 1/8th of my total wealth, depending on weather or not I have paid my mobile phone bill ;)

My honest opinion that it was more PR Bullshit from the Malaysians and this time it has helped spilt the fans even more.

It's clear they want us to be a bigger team, rich people have dreams and to make more money in the long run,
I for one if I won £80m (say) on the Euro Lottery I would give "my club" £5m,
I would do more but the missus would say no :ayatollah:

What I can't understand is why not buy Everton? already there, less debt, bigger fan base, we all love our clubs dearly but this one doesn't stack up

It's all on a wing and a prayer. Believe it when I see it.

Hype I'm placing it down to until we see some hard evidence.

That sounds about right, untill hard evidence is shown my opinion will remain the same.
