Now Bale wants to buy Cardiff as well as Plymouth

[Martyn - Derwydd]

Looks to have a lot of traction though mart

Yeah does look that way but one of the strategies in investment is the buy on the dip sell on the high.

Plymouth & Cardiffs value(cost to buy them) will have dropped as a result of relegation. Cardiff's revenue this year will drop from 24m/year to 14m/yr thanks to loss of TV revenues at Championship levels etc

That's why I speculate that the consortium is bottom fishing. Hoping that an owner has had enough and wants out after a relegation. Bale may want Cardiff for sure but the consortium are looking for a deal.

The investors wont care if its Cardiff, Plymouth, which they already moved onto after their Cardiff bid was rejected out of hand, or Luton, Sheff Weds or ????

With Cardiff in debt approx 80m, mostly to Tan, and that's not counting the current just finished season, its hard to see why they would be a good target compared to other clubs. Tan has put over 200m into that club. He would have to be desperate for money to sell it in a fire sale right now.

But there is all sorts of ways to structure deals so it may happen. Take the Burnley takeover for example where the buyers effectively used Burnley's own money to buy the club. Think it was Burnley, havent checked

Frank Hennesey is meant to be involved
