Midlands Yellow 4,682 Posted April 14, 2023 The season is over, Smith and Jones fcuk off this summer and the Webber’s follow swiftly. Time to bite the **** pie and rebuild under new ownership. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Danke bitte 1,154 Posted April 14, 2023 Agreed. But what does that mean? Mid table medium for how many seasons. We’ve been used to a taste of success and you can’t get unused to it easily Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Feedthewolf 5,885 Posted April 14, 2023 The takeover business is probably dragging its feet because Attanasio knows that it'll be much easier and cheaper to buy out a Championship club than a Premier League club. Tonight was a tough watch, but the new ownership will have a lot more impact in the summer if we know we're playing in this division than the one above. Patience is in order. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We're not talking about someone buying a used car. If Attanasio walks away then we all know what the atmosphere will be like around the club. Now we're pretty much guaranteed to be playing Championship football next season, the cogs have turned in Attanasio's favour. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
raunds canary 238 Posted April 14, 2023 Who is still looking forward to a day out at Wembley in may . Strange things have happened. 1981/82 we were about 10th with a few weeks to go. Glass half full says we got the worst performance of the season out of the way and it will now be plain sailing all the way to the premier League 😀😀 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We played a lot worse than that under smith. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I can't wait for this season to be over. That's the 2nd in a row and the season before that I wasn't allowed in the ground. Tough times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

FtW, I doubt tonight’s will have had much effect either way on Attanasio’s plans. What I am very much looking forward to, though, is the reaction here when Attanasio, having taken over and been greeted as a saviour, then decides to keep both Webbers in place… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nutty nigel 7,902 Posted April 14, 2023 (edited) It won't be long. I know people who wanted Watling, South, Chase, Delia (they never mention Michael), McNally, Balls, Moxey and Webber out.

Ignoring the conjecture about the Webbers, which may or may not come to pass, do you not think that Attanasio might bide his time on the takeover? In a couple of weeks, the overall value of the club could be drastically different based on whether or not we have a chance of factoring in the PL riches to the club's valuation? I add the caveat that I know nothing of matters fiscal, but surely our league status would have an impact upon the value of S&J's shareholding? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
