Tony’s Statement.

So are we to conclude that he is not actually a billionaire and has ran out of cash- the charlatan option or he is a billionaire but doesn’t want to put any more money into the club- the tosser option?

[Richard]

Or he wants to put more money into the club but the Chinese authorities are preventing him ?

[kippaxvilla2]

HSBC are the main funder.

[berneboy]

We all seem to be making judgements when we know very little about what is going on.
I do know that I don't trust newspaper guesswork.

[PaulWinch again]

Well whichever way you look at it it’s bad.

Don't spoil it for him, he doesn't get to call him a 'funny' name that way.

Not buying this one.

Not buying this one.

Well there's a surprise

See my post on the other thread where I explain why.

You're still at the denial stage. It's anger and bargaining next, then depression.

I think its obvious what he's doing. He'll start selling individual shares for £5 a go, and then have a raffle where the winner with the lucky share gets the club. Works for those people who do it with their houses

Just got in and playing catch up on the day. Tweeting, instead of putting out a proper statement is embarrassing and amateurish. Lead from the front, stop feeling sorry for yourself, put a proper plan in place. He won't want to sell up due to his honour but I don't see any other way unless he has some rich non-Chinese mates who can pump dosh straight in and not have it marooned in China.

He's been out and still catching up, don't be smart.

So according to Collymore, Dr X has found a way to get £50m into the club.
I don't know what to think anymore.
