    I totally agree but Sergio Pinto III to have a different take claiming the likes of Luton, Bournemouth, Swansea, Burnley, Brentford, Blackpool, Wigan and so on...........they didn't need 20,000 fans.

    You mean there are still gullible rich people out there who don't do their due diligence properly and wonder why what they purchased doesn't meet with their requirements, by the way looking at Brad Galinson net worth Stephan Rupp is quoted as being richer.

    Swindon eyeing up a move for Dan Kemp of MK Dons.

    Could offer some competition for Walker and can play on either wing offering width. Goals in him. Just what is required.

    Id actually have him over Banks tbh.

    He certainly had a good time at Hartlepool United 9 goals from midfield in 16 outings, and apparently MK Dons are having financial problems could be a good time to get him for Swindon.

    Brad Galidon’s net worth is $100 million. Rupp is worth about the same on two sources I just found Dave . Dollar is better value than the Euro at the moment so it depends on when they are calculated.

    Completely bizarre thinking, if an investor is willing to pay £2 million more than what the club is actually worth we don't want them within a million miles because they're terrible businessmen

    Didn't Swindon clear their debt at the end of last year when their new owner came in? Fairly certain at the time I remember the new owner paid the 3 or 4 million owed.

    The new owner bought their stadium back too.

    That’s entirely possible, the balance sheet was for 22 but made grim reading . They had no assets on the sheet!

    Swindon are struggling to get anyone in. I can’t see them doing much next season.

    I'm not sure it is.

    What is the club actually 'actually worth'? There is no right figure because it depends on so many factors.

    My point was that if a couple of million pounds is a deal breaker at point of sale then the investor is unlikely to have sufficient funds to fund the club long term. How much would it take to get us into the Championship and keep us there for a sustained period? Tens of millions. Whilst a million or two isn't trivial, it is relatively insignificant to the likely amounts needed.

    When Stefan Rupp understood this and realised the BS he had been spun about making money out of football, we became a club that broadly needs to pay its way.

    Had a check in the meantime, they are debt free it seems under the new ownership from late 2022.

    They also received a 6 figure fee from Fifa this summer for players leaving to play in the world cup. Looks like they are above the line for the first time in a long time.

    216 pages into this thread, yet I cannot remember a summer with so few rumours.

    Boring compared to the incoming masses last summer! Think we will see another 2-3 incoming and perhaps 4 departing ?

    Yes. A PR stunt perhaps...
