No it doesn't Paul, it depends on whether any challenge to the takeover right now will help on the pitch this season. It will not. > Some of the other offers had more money available to invest in the > squad, if > they were in control would we stand a better chance of promotion? Utterly irrelevant. They do not own the club right here, right now. > Niall Quinn's consortium didn't takeover Sunderland until late July but > they > provided sufficient funds to their untried manager to win the > Championship. Were sunderland in administration then? Were sunderland hamstrung by not being able to buy/sell players throughout the whole process? Did quinn's takeover mean they couldn't buy & sell players until November? > I also think you have to question how important, in the scale of > things, you > consider getting promoted NEXT season is, and whether Ken Bates agrees > with > you or not.
