Don't get me wrong, i don't believe throwing money, particulary someone elses money, is always the answer, it can lead to debt that is called on sooner or later.
My point is, that Peace said he couldn't push us on to the next level without investment. So he sought out buyer.
We waited a year while he found one, and even then he took so long with his due diligence that we missed the transfer window.
Now we find our new owner can't invest, though probably through no fault of his own, and so we are back to square one, a premier league club lacking investment.
Mr Lai say's he doesn't want to sell but stay and develop us. But how is he going to do that if his government won't allow the movement of money overseas?
I think we have all been duped, it was never about developing football clubs over here, but developing the game over there, at our expense.
It's a bit of a coincidence that the Chinese government decided to put the blocks on once a number of English clubs had been bought.
We are told that no money can come out from China, but does that work both ways, and are we merely the cow thats being milked by the Chinese?
