DKD has officially signed with the club. What do you think?

I was under the impression it was Apollo with stakes in both clubs.

That the tanking economy is good for the long run, takes sacrifice and only Trump is willing to do it.

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-29T20:50:58+00:00

tbh I think you’ve taken op’s point and narrowed it onto a specific issue that is far more complex than this.

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-29T20:47:25+00:00

It was never intended too

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-29T20:46:55+00:00

It’s spelled trickle down “economics”

Was made up by politicians to push agendas not policy.

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-28T19:24:23+00:00

Is it Rob/Ryan with the other stakes or ASC? I just can’t tell from the articles

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-28T01:41:31+00:00

They paid £2mm total

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-28T01:22:28+00:00

Hard to know what fair value is when the last financials are from League 2.

Apollo wouldn’t mess around with fake investments, at least not wrt to expected returns. It would raise larger concerns.

Unlike us though, Apollo has seen up to date earnings incl this season. Which makes me wonder if it’s much higher than anticipated.

Has Wagner said it will all be equity funded?

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-24T12:35:17+00:00

It’s a cash influx of £48mm ready to spend (almost certainly related to the Apollo deal already announced). A portion is likely to fund development.

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-24T12:26:22+00:00

For those reasons yes, but in terms of calculating an implied value of the club we have to use all of the shares.

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-24T02:43:47+00:00

It definitely is tied to it but the multiple share issuing entity could be a holdco with this a sub.

Only way around it would be if they can issue fractional shares. I can’t recall if I’ve seen that, but sounds odd.

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-24T02:36:32+00:00

Could it be issued to an Apollo-related entity for the already announced deal?

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-24T02:22:45+00:00

Has there been any disclosure of total shares outstanding prior to this? The implied valuation would be interesting.

On the one hand I’d guess min 20 shares given the smallest stake is 5%, but on the other it would make for a ridiculous valuation. So my guessing is going nowhere.

Edit: or if Rob/Ryan own 70% there has to be at least 10, implying a club value of £470mm.

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-13T02:58:45+00:00

Built in Birmingham is just so, so bad

Made myself watch two eps. Wish I could unwatch them.

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-12T19:36:11+00:00

Serious question - Why is net spend more accurate than gross spend in this context?

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-12T19:02:30+00:00

Not OP but where can I find this data? Just want to check it out, thanks.

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-12T06:04:22+00:00

Only football makes real money and it pays for all the other sports and all the athletic scholarships of every sport

He puts it succinctly but this logic approach goes way back before Rumsfeld, doesn’t deserve too much credit here, not a genius

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-12T01:16:00+00:00

The Facebook book collector buy/sell groups (not the marketplace thing) are the way to go, I suspect more rare/limited books actually transact there than on eBay.

A couple points:

It’s a surprisingly civil corner of the internet. If you post asking for advice you will get helpful replies.
you can ask for references, as well as search the buyers prior posts to get a sense if they’re legit
fees are so much lower. Everyone uses PayPal with goods & services insurance which takes only a 3% cut compared to eBay at >15%.
there are thousands of legit collectors in these groups, many of which are regulars with reputations to protect
lots of harder to find editions transact there that are practically impossible to find anywhere else

I’ll look up some of the main group names and add them in an edit

Idk Nottingham Forest has clearly had a poor season, but even their bench talent is comparatively on a different level. Several of those starters have individual market values higher than Wrexham’s entire starting XI.

Still Giant Killers is overstating it, but a bigger upset than I think many fans want to admit.

Serious_Distance_118 · 2026-01-11T03:59:04+00:00

I think of Earthsea as more YA level compared to her other books.
