    As it clearly means nothing, Birmingham having a £72m debt with impunity, could we maybe spend some of Neerav's millions to buy ourselves promotion?

    Just a thought

    Easy to spend someone else's money. Go watch Man City if you're not happy. Be thankful we have a club. :D

    As a club we could already be accused of trying to buy our way by the losses we are reporting.

    But let's just say it happens, an neerav chucks 50 million at it.

    Would you trust the recruitment to deliver that squad?

    Yes. We only come unstuck when players get into the last few months of their contracts. Look back through history of the last twenty years. This season was an anomaly because we were crap and nobody wants our players.

    Just for context, Birmingham city are currently running at 155% growth on revenue streams, they are projected to have the biggest ever revenue growth in championship history, I don't think they'll be worried about the 35m spend to get back up.

    I think you should perhaps ask Neerav if he's happy to spend his millions.....

    We probably all hoped for this but I’m not sure I’d trust any of them with a shopping list for Asda.
