You know all the details ? I don’t

If the new coach wants to dominate possession in an enzo way then vesty is good at it. but I assume we gave him a new contract because we intended to sell him if we went down and recoup some of our dosh.

Whoever pays us the most money can have him If he’s going then we just get over it

I’m thinking six and I reckon the club might decide to take that on the chin if they think that will be the end of it

If we were still in the PL we could be more creative (like Chelsea) the championship is way more restrictive

Of course but if the list hadn’t been compromised then there’s no way we would have brought 19k across

I wonder how many Afghans we would have taken in without the ‘leak’ of that document ? (Which left us with no moral right to reject ) could be one of the most expensive errors ever made by an official

Have we become slower to announce incomings since the silva debacle? just looks as though we’re trying to delay announcing this until as late as possible pre trip to Austria. Recall ranieri was revealed whilst we were there. You’d assume that he’s had input re recruitment and sales (although doubt he’ll have much say on the latter).

We’re saving up for the plane tickets if we can’t get the Kbet deal across the line today then only one of his coaching staff can go to Austria …….

There are a number of people with genuine concerns over gambling (mostly through personal experience) whom I understand wholeheartedly have an issue with betting companies sponsoring out shirts etc - others …. . the anger from others ?? - your post hits the nail on the head. If we were being run well and doing ok then it wouldn’t be much of a story on here.

Excellent are you short or long leg ???

Do fans of wolves, palace and other clubs sponsored by dodgy gambling firms have the same view as ours ????

If it’s your first name then after the firth over is completed, you’re supposed to remove your clothing and run across the pitch, making sure that you jump the wickets and don’t catch the bails with anything looking forward to the videos !

This is way closer to the truth than anything else. from where I’m sitting, the owners went out and the best chance they have of getting the most dosh is to have the club in the PL or challenging in the champ. so they’ll do whatever it takes to achieve that - Using a dodgy gambling website to feed funds into the club. If it were my money then I’d be doing the same or similar. the risks of being done for this are less than the level of punishment for failing psr without this extra 5/10m. Your morals are not necessarily their morals. we all know that we’re where we are because of gross mismanagement- but they seem unable to accept that. and we are are where we are now.

What percentage do KP now own ? Top/the family own more for sure. You don’t build an extension to your house when you may be looking to sell it at short notice ……… and you make should sure that the house looks the best it can. Yes we can comment on the quality of cleaner and gardener being employed. Hence the garden is overgrown and the bathrooms look terrible. but if you could find a way of trying to improve the appearance to help a sale then you’d do it.

I’m not seeing what you’re seeing From my perspective, K bet is simply a conduit to pass funds from king power/the family into the football club. The rules only allow a certain amount to be invested by owners. This arrangement gets around that. Effectively, Top gives £15m to Kbet and they conveniently sponsor us to the tune of 15m. My question is why would the 15m sent through by the family be questionable in its origins?

I appreciate this post as addressing the elephants filling the room atm none of us know the depth of the financial mess that the club is in the fact that they’re doing deals like this to drive an additional (not allowed) owner funded 10m/annum into the club last season (and probably 5m this ) shows how much shite we’re in on psr. The idea that these funds are also of illegal origin is not something I’d considered. what is the basis for this idea?

Not seeing a ‘happy ending’ with this one the club would argue that this is the only way they can get additional investment into the business and avoid more psr sanctions. If other clubs are doing this’s then it becomes a case of do it or drop further behind. The glass half full view is at least it shows that king power are putting max capital into the club that they are allowed to. (And effectively more). The moral aspect is clear though. are championship clubs doing this in the same way as PL ones do? I could see the EFL chomping at the bit to take us to the cleaners on something like this.

By one run !!!!!!!

Isn’t it just about the owners being able to put more cash into the club than they’re allowed to? (Via dodgy overstated sponsorship )?

I’ll drink to that ! I have news for you ……….

Was going to post this maybe the kit launch had to wait for the sponsor (betting co) to be created!

Kiwis waking up to see that they’ll retain the record !

Hazelwood killed it htf does your captain play that shot when staring down the barrel of an unwanted record as they are ????

Excitement for the kiwis potentially losing a record they’ve held for 70 years!
