TBF they must be sweating on ever seeing their money back after the past 6 years clearly not going to plan.

I have always wondered why he is wearing a funeral suit on that interview!

I'm very grateful for KT saving the club but it would be in all our interests if he sold up. Set a realistic price to cover some of his loses but forget about cashing in on any redevelopment. The club isn't being run very well and really needs a new direction.

If the land deal is anywhere near as lucrative as manwork has suggested there is no way he is leaving for some of his loses, I would want all of those loses paid plus a good percentage of potential profit from the land redevelopment. With all the red tape over the whole thing nobody else is going to touch the club with a barge pole. I would imagine we will have to wait until the whole process is done before a change of owner. Then someone else comes in and in all likelihood like most other clubs our size we remain in league 2 with the odd trip up to league 1, a minute chance of the championship and a bigger chance of the conference. After a while fans get restless, demand change, the cycle continues.

Don’t forget when he and his partners acquired NTFC the day before this interview the main parcel of land under CDNL was not included and the insolvency actions on that separate business was not concluded until early 2017. So any talk of development couldn’t have been defined by realisation of that land at that point unless it has been promised well ahead of insolvency procedures. It was smart manoeuvring on their part and the polar opposite for NBC.
Either way five years on what have we achieved? Two promotions and most likely two relegations and a significant accumulation of debt without development progressing in any meaningful way.

I think someone should just take this city of Peterborough and just... just flush it down the f***in' toilet

Cardoza was offered £27m for the land and turned it down.

I thought it was 24 million? Either way, that figure was quoted in the media.

John Brady gets my support, loving the fact he wants assurances before he takes the job full time. He is basically saying he’s not going to take a job where your hands are tied, very sensible and savvy. Will be very interesting how that goes down with KT?

+1 and I wasn't expecting 'fighting talk' with staring relegation in the face. Brave, stupid or keeping his integrity intact? It couldn't have been a fun time for him personally so don't blame him at all. I am sure that he has been working all hours and it must have been emotionally and physically draining, for a lot less money than a lot of us earn. I hope he gets the opportunity to have a proper go.

i have a feeling KT won’t like being held to ransom over the job but someone is telling the truth about the state of the club here . It’s run on a shoestring and is bargain basement under this chairmanship

It’s dicey reporting by the Chron after a supposed interview and article on Brady actually taking the job! Fair amount of assumptions and in any case nobody knows what these demands/assurances are. So the conspiracy theories circulate! Bit like Boris and his wallpaper episode?

I have not bothered to look at the club’s accounts but as far as I’m aware the club usually runs at a loss. Forgive me if I’m being naive but if the club was run more extravagantly wouldn’t the losses be huge and potentially dangerous? Are other smaller clubs than us that bring in less revenue than us spending more on their budgets? If so how? Have they all got wealthy benefactors?.
