Sounds to me like the usual bull to increase the attendance over the next few weeks. Drag it out for as long as possible and by the end of the transfer window we will realise it was all hot air.
cynics! met Haigh twice ..... top bloke to be fair his quote "why buy a ferrari and not put petrol in it?"
Not sure it's hot air to be honest. Too much info given and too far down the line to be fabricated.
If it is then even he knows the fans would not stand for it.
I cant see him taking a position in Politics and filling people full off bull!..
How would that look if he went in for the hot seat and he has the world of football against him?..
It was all a load of (red) bull...
don't get your hopes up, and always remember his rather flattering soft focus sparkly-shiny teeth twitter pic until he,

Do people actually not trust him because he chose a twitter photo of himself before he gained a few pounds? I'm sure most people would do the same!
He goes down in the opinion of many on this board when he comes out with comments like
"We want people to have fun!"
The barsteward....!
I mean that's just wrong in the eyes of so many isn't it...?
I will believe it when it happens be it buying back the ground or some decent investment in the team. We have heard it all before from Bates and it was always just before the transfer window. My money is on we were to late to do anything as the buy out is dragging on a little!
Some comments from Haigh that stood out for me were................
It's so much more special to have 30,000 in ER. It makes it more fun & the team work harder. I want more young people in.
Excellent to see he wants to build a fanbase and get the kids in - more incentives and offers for adults with kids would have us getting the big home attendance in thew league every-time

"I intend to stay here... We are Premier League ready.We are making plans. We already see ourselves as a Premier League club."
" We know there are certain players we need to keep. We speak to Brian regularly about it. Look at our record over the 12 months."
I think I also heard him say that the deal to buy the ground back is in motion.
It would make sense to buy it back before the next price and rental increase is due (in October?).

What we have to remember is that they can buy the ground back for £15m at the moment and this should represent a good investment for them in the medium term. It should also add immediate value to their assett line as it's surely worth more?
If they are paying around 9% of the value in rental then the saving is the same as investing £15m and getting a 9% return. Plus they have the increasing value of the ground and land around it.
