Let them think that based on a weird article that grouped us with Wigan and Reading.
Well that is rubbish as we we were prompted from league 1 under his ownership only a couple of years ago, so clearly he can afford to do that. The championship is different, many clubs are throwing away millions to go nowhere, we can still afford to compete, albeit at the lower end if we get the appointment and the club identifies targets right.We do have financial difficulties, our owner doesn't have the funds to run a successful professional football club to a competitive level be it the Championship or League 1.

Whisper it, but actually Segantii is in the middle of a big expansion from Circa $6bn AUM to $7bn after being closed to new investors for some years. That’s going to involve a lot of new hiring.Yes you are talking rubbish.
You have no idea of SS's finance's do you? Unless of course you have access to his bank accounts, which you don't unless SS has cloned your username.
Individual's and companies at the top their game in the Financial Markets that SS works in don't lose money. They just stash it away offshore for a rainy day.

Of course they did!!

Actually lots of hedge funds did lose money last year, but Segantii didn’t. It was something like the sixth or seventh best performing hedge fund in Hong Kong last year, returning something in the region of 6.5 percent. Lower than in the past, but easily beating the market.

Apologies for interjecting with facts, I know this isn’t approved of on this message board
Correct. Assets under management.
Are you insinuating he does have the money to sustain a competitive club at League One or Championship level?Yes you are talking rubbish.

Well the evidence shows that he can comfortably do so in League One. His first season in the Championship, I don’t recall anyone moaning about not spending enough. Last season, probably a deadly combination of bad managerial appointments and not enough investment on Championship quality.
So we didn’t invest into championship quality - was that due to a lack of money?
Lightening didn't strike twice last season from the previous because the poor coaching of players they went backwards,those we brought in didn't cut it, the loans where a bunch of kids who blow hot and cold and formations didn't suit our squad.
Lockdown didn’t help
You’re talking the same rubbish as Bennys mob. He doesn’t know Sadlers financial situation and nor do you. Very few people apart from SS and his accountant know how wealthy,or not, he is. We will all just have to wait and see how the next couple of transfer windows pan out, we may then have an idea , not of his wealth, but how much he is prepared to spend.Yes you are talking rubbish.

Which is what I said, how much he’s prepared to spend. That isn’t an indicator of his wealth just, to repeat, how much he’s prepared to spend. That means both how much he, and the club have available within the parameters he set.
Then there's the problem of extra money given goes onto the books as debt and Sadler said from the start he wasn't prepared to do a 'Derby'.
He spent ~£9m buying the club, lost £2m in 2019/20, £5m in 2020/21, and just about broke even in 2021/22 thanks to £2m from Critchley going to Villa.
It’s insane people moaning about SS. Imagine literally just knowing you’ll lose two million quid a year. If I ever get close to that half of that, you’ll not hear from me again.
Yep I'll just add it to some of the other knee jerk explosions of nonsense you seem to be spouting of late .

UTMP 
Likewise, if you look at the seasons where the club has done well, what's noticeable is how few injuries to the first XI players we had in that season.I reckon that last season's relegation nightmare was mainly due to the number of injuries we had week after week, seemingly all season. The treatment room must have resembled a hospital ward.
Quite a number of times throughout the season, I predicted that if every player in the squad was available, the first team wouldn't beat a made up team of the currently injured players with Stuart Moore in goal.
I can assure you! You are talking rubbish. Who are you to say the owner doesn’t have the funds, etc? You have no knowledge whatsoever regarding the owners financial standing.We do have financial difficulties, our owner doesn't have the funds to run a successful professional football club to a competitive level be it the Championship or League 1.

He is a Blackburn fan Wiz (He told me himself). He did have a season ticket in the South Stand - but he said it was more so he could take his lad to watch football.
I think it's the lack of spending on decent players and going down with a whimper that makes people think we are skint
I would agree with that Phil. There’s a stark difference between to working to a set budget and not having the money to fund that budget.
Financial issues aside, League 1 does appear weaker this year following the departure of Ipswich and Sheffield Wednesday.
Going back to the title of the o/p's post .. who thinks we're having financial issues? That thought has never crossed my mind?
