Yes but only if I had enough to really invest in the future of the club. Not just to wipe out debts.0
-
No....................it would take the fun out of supporting them. Too many worries0

No, youd have to be absolutely stark raving bonkers to invest in a football club0

Exactly.
Ask Richard Murray.

Rodex, are you categorically saying you are leading a consortium to take the club over?0

I'd only invest what I didn't expect to get back.
I'd view it like an expensive bet.0 -

Not in a million years, imagine all the prats like Nicky Gray that you'd have to deal with. No matter what you'd do it would never be enough for some 'fans' and i think it would spoil your fun of supporting the club.0

If I'd won the Euro Lottery of £93m (or whatever it was a few weeks back) then I'd certainly bung the club £20m/£30m, couldn't spend it all anyway and it would certainly be fun!0

No. I like the odd gamble but any investment I make I research it as well as I can with the hope that company has a good chance in increasing productivity and thus profit. At no point in my life has football looked a great investment; only in the early nineties for very big clubs and the mid to late 90's for capable champ clubs has it been in decades of loss making years. Unless you could buy the club and develop a new stadium with a few backhanders like good old Bush jr with the Texas Rangers.
Where in any industry do you pay huge guaranteed wages to mainly rubbish and under-performing employees? I've got a lot of time for Richard Murray as he invested a lot of money into the club when there was every chance he'd get none back. But to do that nowadays when terrible players like Youga, Burton and Hudson have earned many thousands... Pah.0 -
if i could get curbs to be manager then it's a no brainer.0

You could always make Henry Supporters Director again.
Like a knight in shining armour, he'd put all the Nick Gray's to the Charlton sword.

Only if I had a serious, huge amount of money. Not worth it if you won £50-100m on the lottery. If I was a billionaire then why not, I'd be a fan of the club and have a chance to play a huge role in moving them forward.0

If I won the Euro lottery for silly amounts of £100m +, I would bung the club £10m, as a gift on the agreement that I had seats for life for myself in any stand I chose for upto 6 people, and a box for life with all food & drink free and on tap, for when the mood suited me.0

Is that all you would want for your £10m? - I think I would like a say in how the money was spent. I wouldn't want to see it pay off existing director debts but be used on strengthening the squad.0 -
what's the asking price including all debts and does it include the training ground and them houses?0
-
i'd put aside £xm into a trust fund that got released to cafc, once i was diagnosed with alzhiemers.0

Yes if millwall were up for sale, that could be a lot of fun!0

Yep, I would state it as a gift to do with what they will, as long as I got the above, and if one day we do make it back to the Premier league etc, the box and seats would become priceless, and I would hasten to add, if the club wanted the box back, they would have to pay me the going rate to buy it back.0 -
No. I dont know a thing about running a business. Wouldn't mind buying Palace though if money was no object, I could come up with a 5 year plan for them.0
-
If it was a case of buying a club and then selling at a loss I'd sooner buy one of Palace/Millwall/Rangers, run them into the ground and then exit. Any financial loss I'd incur would be more than offset by the benefit to humanity.0
-
For you lot to give me grief 24/7 on some internet forum!
You can poke that.0 -
Of course I would.....if i won, say, 40million it would be plenty to have a nice life and save Charlton. How the club would then be run is a different story. Get the dosh to take over, secure the place, but then I'm afraid balance expenditure against income, even if it led to less success. Manure run on tons of debt, but for us we would need to be careful with the money.0
