Fair enough. They seemed a decent Group of companies from just looking at the accounts (without going in to what they did), and a £6m profitable business is not to be sniffed at! So when business was going well he'll have been more well off than the majority of Town fans. But as we've seen with DH, it's wealth on a different level that's needed to sustain and run a moderately successful Championship football club. How many Town fans who fit into that category can probably be counted on the fingers of one hand. I'm getting a bit lost here. If Floyd's figures are correct - and to me as an outsider they seem the most believable and researched of any I've seen - then why on earth was Phil Hodgkinson allowed within a million miles of owning our club ? As PH and DH have said, Dean Hoyle actually went out of his way to approach Mr Hodgkinson. I can totally see how DH would have benefitted but how would Huddersfield Town ?!? Only my opinion , but the sooner these two, er, businessmen get out of my club, the better. Why wouldn't he be? What about Floyds figures makes you think that? Why the 'er, businessmen'.. are you questioning that they are now?

I saw they have an Huddersfield office on their website (which looks like it was put together by someone who isn't very tech savvy), with a Manchester phone code 🤣

For a company looking to acquire an IT & telecoms businesses their website is terrible.. They must do well without the internet & LinkedIn because they're just about undiscoverable 🤣

To be fair they look that bad that I wouldn't be surprised if it's them that takes us over.
On a serious note, their Comms designed to look like rescuing us from admin is the problem with this whole admin bluff. Yet again it makes us out to be the little guys or those who need the help.

I don’t put a gun to their head, they choose to take on the custodianship. How about you explain to me why the shares haven’t been put into a trust despite 12 years of promises they would. portugalterrier I’m still waiting on an explanation. Suggest you take it up with whoever made the promise, the point I am making is that absolutely nobody is going to fund HTAFC without ownership, custodian through ownership.

Floyds figures seem well researched and same as you I'm no expert, but I can't see how anyone could look at those numbers and think he could own a Championship club. Surely we must be missing something? Hoyle must have experts advising him.
