Billions, not millions

Prem*

I'd rather Wolves win the Prem than Man U, Man C, Chelsea etc...

And the same here bring it the Midlands!

It is a time of uncertainty and I too are apprehensive about what will happen to our beloved club and can only hope and pray for a successful, positive and understanding outcome.

It seems obvious that English football and particularly the Premier League is held in a higher regard overseas, particularly in the Mid and Far East than it is in the UK, otherwise, why do we not see mega wealthy potential British owners showing interest.

We all have our opinion on the playing policies of Pulis and management of JP, but this foreign buyer scenario could, potentially, become a nightmare for us all.

On the other hand, given this mans reputed wealth, we could possibly become a second Manchester City with real aspirations of success. Untold wealth can be both good and bad - good if funds are available to attract 5 star players and a progressive Head Coach. On the other hand, could it be a 'Vincent Tan' scenario with re-naming, re-shirting and re-branding?

Time will tell but I just hope JP as a 'fan' can see further than the £150m he will draw from any sale.

(Anyone wish for a return to the old days of Bovril, 5 Park Drive, and a 5/-d Steak & Kidney pie at half-time ?)

you're right to be apprehensive, these prospective owners are so uber-rich and being 7,000 miles away so removed from any fan pressure that their new toy could disappear into a cyber filing cabinet, left to stagnate.

That's the attitude I like to see!! Rivalries are one thing, but at the end of the day, I'd rather ANY midlands team won the PL other than the mancs and cockneys. Cant stand them.

It was great to see Leicester win last year. But if teams from the West Midlands can get in on the act, just in the top 5 and fighting, then that would be even better!

Look at us lot getting on!

***k you Wolves!
