    They’re making good signings though so far. I’d love it if we could pip them to Lowe though!

    Baldwin is a starter? I absolutely pray that's not the case. He has 3 decent months last year, outside of which he was an absolutely liability.

    GA said exactly that in his recent Radio Leeds special with Jamie Raynor

    he was better than that had a few dodgy games but was far more consistent than most of our players apart from Shepherd and Smallwood

    At the beginning his distribution was shocking but once settled he was pretty consistent.

    He was decent in the first half at Doncaster.

    Another player we've been linked with to cross off list.
    Dean Campbell has signed for Northampton.

    It makes you wonder how we had the second best defence in the league last year and along with Sheperd he was the mainstay

    Huddersfield and a few others are on a different planet to us budget wise.

    The league seems to have changed a lot in that respect since we were last here.

    Tbf we could never compete with the likes of Sheffield United, Wolves, Wigan, Sunderland and Blackburn last time around. But there’s definitely been an increase.

    Wealthy owners , willing to throw serious money at a club are becoming the norm these days as opposed to being the exception ?

    A very quick , non scientific search , indicated a THIRD of the 72 EFL clubs are US owned..

    The proportion of owners of other clubs are also owned by other overseas investors isn’t known , other than MKD Kuwaiti and BCAFC , German?

    Long gone are the days when clubs were owned by people like Bob Martin with a tiny shop in Shipley;)

    oooops disregard my last.........es, Wycombe Wanderers have a new owner, Kazakhstan billionaire Mikheil Lomtadze, who purchased a 90% stake in the club. His company, Blue Ocean Partners Ltd, now owns the club. Lomtadze is reportedly worth $5.7 billion (£4.5bn). This influx of capital from a billionaire owner means Wycombe has a significantly stronger financial position.

    Absolutely loaded if this is right.


    Wycombe Wanderers is primarily owned by Feliciana EFL Limited (90%) and Wycombe Wanderers Supporters Group Limited (10%). Feliciana EFL Limited is in turn owned by Blue Ocean Partners II Limited, which is owned by Mikheil Lomtadze. Mikheil Lomtadze is a technology investor and entrepreneur from Kazakhstan.

    Mellon off to Donny. Bid acceptes by Burnley according to reports.

    I thought he was shite tbh. Lower L2 at best. NL probably more his level.

    Happy with that if true, McCann obviously hasn't seen him play :)
