I'd presume something like X number of players have to be from their agency/X in the starting line up have to be

If we keep the freehold (Russ 19:37) presumably the upkeep of PL is down to us?

I would be surprised if the group don’t have a prepared answer for that question tbh

Main one for me Oddsock is pretty much just where we are already - if the deal ends after decent investment has been executed well then we cannot go back and will always have to have investment.

I hope someone asks the main question - “what’s in it for you?” These are wealthy men they don’t do stuff just to be nice to people in Wimbledon. What’s their exit plan?
I was late joining so apologies if covered. But what’s in it for them? How do they make money? Is it purely from player sales?

Surely time to bring back Terry Eames, Trigs?

Sounds juicy. And let's hope we get more professional and employ a proper proof reader - the interval slide up at the moment says if we have questions we have to e-mail info@thedonsturst.org (sic)

This is basically what I was hoping for, let them take the rewards if their investment propels us upwards, but have the safeguards in place if it goes wrong. Questions should focus on the safeguards but this looks like a very nice model on paper.

Yeah can’t see JJ or CC featuring in the future scenario.

Probably not Wally either mate just to manage expectations:-)
And the downside(s) is/are?

Q&A starting,let's hope some of our knobheads dont piss off the investors.

Can't see us ever getting such a deal again. Bring back Wally
Safe to say that despite 10 goals shipped and 1 scored, the misery of the last 110 days or so got a tad bit better...

It's like a Barcelona-esque president model. Put the money in and you control footballing side, dont and you lose it again.

Yes other than a cosy pay off for some on the board this should limit future DTB nonsense somewhat.

Changes the role and purpose of the Trust - until such time as it's needed to try and take us on/save us.
Unbelievable that a bunch of fans went from nothing to a business worth £100m (£87m for 90%) in just over 20 years

DT won’t get to do anything with it as far as I understand as although they pay us £16m at he start they then have full autonomy to do as they please. It’s a bit like Jim Ratcliffe at United to my mind.

Ridiculous amount of cash – you have to suspect that it's window dressing and the reality will be less.

Most of the investment will be on the footballing side and SSC will control that. DTB are more of an oversight body with safeguards which is really the best scenario we could hope for.

So it only took the DTB 6 months to do this? :-)

I'm all for it in principle but will withhold my vote until wise people have asked their questions to stress test this.
OI I get the impression the DTB won’t get to just spunk this up the wall.

I hope they do get control, they can't be worse than the recent DTBs
