Why is everyone so concerned about having money Sheffield United and Norwich have got promoted without throwing money it. We got promoted without throwing money at it You don't need to be the richest to succeed in the Championship, just the smartest Statistically that isn’t true. You’re talking about anomalies there. Next thing you’ll be bringing up Leicester as evidence that anyone can win the premier league. It’s a money game now. Richest win. Others, bar the very odd exception, don’t.

I will be up there again tomorrow regardless of anything. I love my club and have total trust in Deano and his judgement. Please get behind the team and the whole club. Let's get this new era off to a good start, without all the bickering. Personally I'm happy to have a shrewd hard bloke at the helm. Exciting times ahead come rain or shine it's gonna be just grand. TTID That’s the way football fans are these days. It’s like society- there are the haves and the have nots and the have not always want want the haves have. We’ve got a deeply uninspiring manager and a chairman with no money. Fans aren’t gonna be happy with that.

The efl wouldn’t pass any form of mortgage to purchase a club after bolton. People want to be supportive. There are questions about this takeover people understandably want answering. Then get yourself down to Canalside 10-30 tomorrow morning and ask away.

Hmmm... Facts are ; • Dean isn't going to be chairman • however he is still here and going to help and advise. • he is still on the board of directors Is he really gone? Nope. Not in my opinion. To me it looks like he wanted to ease of the running and enjoy life, he found someone who appears to be good at running clubs sustainably and he's a town supporter. If he doesn't have that much money so what? The club does now. If he’s got no money how has he bought 75% shares in the club? Pauper Phil couldn’t even afford Sobhi! Does he need money? Maybe Dean wanted the right person rather than money. He might have sold it for 20p... Does he need money when we have the parachute payments? Dean may still be happy to act as the money behind it, hence 25%. I get the feeling that Dean isn't ready to let go and wants it in good hands. He just needs to be free from the day to day.

'consortium' covers a multitude of sins and quite 'legal' possibilities... Has consortium been mentioned? consortium/backers/investors with agreements in place should we reach the 'promised land' and Dean still a shareholder with his financial assets?? The 'owner' of a football club not using his own money is not new.. Dean may not be up to being full time owner/chairman but he is still THERE... We still have more money by far than we did the last time we were in the championship, worrying now is 'going daft quite a bit early doors' imo...

If it's anything like his season card fables, I won't bother.. Just a case of ‘employee says nice things about new boss’. Nothing unexpected. Goodness me, and I thought that I can be negative. Firstly, I've never met Sean Jarvis but everything I know about him (what he says, writes and does) suggests that he has done/is doing an excellent job for Huddersfield Town. I trust him. Secondly, I'd repeat all of the above, times 100, about Dean Hoyle. I trust him. Thirdly I know nothing about this new bloke - how rich he is/how he plans to finance his/our dreams - other than that he is a totally true Town supporter. I trust him, and will continue to do so until he gives me a reason not to. I can be as cynical as the next man but some on DATM have, in my opinion, overstepped the mark a bit. Give the man a chance.

He might have sold it for 20p... So Hoyle virtually gave the club away so a fan could run it. How many currently successful clubs are run by lifelong fans with no money again?

But you are correct, in that there will be SOME fans who are not happy, but there are equally SOME that are happy, and IMO the majority who are somewhere in between, and willing to give the Manager and the soon to be new Owner a decent chance before casting dispersion's and copping a negative attitude. And as you say, it is reflective on modern society and this internet shite that can bring out the best and worst in us all. UTT

If you do facebook, go and Sead Sean J's views on the new chairman. Should settle a few nerves.

Fair play he was involved at Southport. however me being a Town fan, if i had any sort of fundings like some and substantial enough to plug into a team, i wouldnt do it with any other than the one im a die hard fan of. So thats my question and so is where is the money and backing coming from? If he is on his own, then overall, it dont look great. If there are others then im happy to let it pan out and accept it on Deans trust. Should it go tits up, this bloke wont be watching Town for a while after..... Isn't his company based over Southport way. I thought he used to be on here too but I can't remember his user name, was he Mersey Terrier ? No...... Not him....I am Spartacus

Are you in anyway related or pals with Phil? You have pulled up a hell of alot of posts just merely questioning it. Calling someone a jerk, implementing im being provocative etc. Very odd as you have just started posting now, on this subject...... Er no - I'm a supporter of the club for 52 years home and away and what that gives you is reasoned perspective e.g. I trust Dean Hoyles's judgement far and away above yours - is that odd enough for you?

I’m really disappointed we’ve sold to someone who runs a law firm rather than a genuine businessman. I’d have preferred Hoyle to look abroad and someone to push us straight back to the prem and then the real cash required to stay there this time. I can’t see that happening with this guy in charge. All I can foresee is a managed climb down and resetting of fans expectations to be a middling championship club like Brentford. Hope I’m wrong. Don’t think I will be.

UTT Football is changing with the huge financial growth and fans know this so they’re changing too. I’ve found our fans were negative the whole time we were in the prem. It’s the way thing are nowadays. It’s the worst thing about the game and what turns me off altogether. I don’t blame fans though- if you’re not bankrolled these days your team won’t be able to compete. I particularly hate law firms and people that run them who pass themselves off as businessmen when they don’t create any wealth themselves or benefit society in any way.

Maybe I have a sweet tooth or not but if you're so confident about your doubts - then get down to Canalside tomorrow face to face and put them forward to DH - it's easy to make assertions anonymously on an online forum so go ahead subject them to some critical scrutiny in the real world....

Jesus Freire you are not the secret police - people are allowed to hold differing opinions to you in the absence of certain facts regarding the takeover.
Tomorrow at the q and a hopefully some of the holes will be filled in.

When Dean took over there was a real sense of excitement that something good was about to happen to the club. I’m certainly not feeling this now, expectations have already been reset for next season and beyond.

I'm actually really happy a town fan will still have ownership. That means long term stability and decisions made with the club at heart.

Peeps expecting us to spend much in the summer are living in cloud cuckoo land. This new bloke sounds to be a very astute businessman and lifelong town fan. Hopefully we will have a good solid player squad to build on after a big clearout. Tbh I would never wish my club gets like Man City or Chelsea just spunking money everywhere, buying the league tbh. This season has been very very unenjoyable for me. Good luck to our new Owner. Nickhudd. Nick - someone articulate has hacked your account I was starting to think I was still pissed.

My experience rather than my view. It’s not a comfortable truth granted but it’s what I’ve experienced. It’s natural when the game is so skewed by moment these days. Was always going to happen when you take the tribalism out of the game and replace with bank balances.

At first I was quite excited by the prospect of some billionaire foreigner buying the club. But its such a massive gamble, and it goes counter to everything we are as a football club, rooted in the community and with a strong local identity.
This feels like a good and sensible decision to me. He’s not going to change our name to the Huddersfield Terriers or change the colour to purple because that’s the national colour in Uzbekistan.
Parachute payments and player sales will be all the money we need for the next couple of years and there’ll be a strategy for investment after that. It’s a good sign that Hoyle headhunted him and also that he’s run a club before. Looking forward to seeing him make a difference and bring his energy to the club.
