    I think he was (just) a £ billionaire a few years before Covid, but he has seen his personal wealth shrink ever since. According to the usual rich lists (Forbes etc) he is now down to half of what he was worth in 2015.

    But what they put into their club is chicken feed.

    How many clubs in the top ten of that list would you regard as being well run? Preston possibly, but, generally speaking, the list reads like the league table turned upside down.

    I didn't realise there was such a strong welsh connection with Reading.

    Jacks doing ok considering the owners don’t have a pot to you know what in….I guess they don’t count the wealth of the 27 hedge funders picking up transfer fees from them.

    Love the fact that Rotherhams owners are named Joan and Tony, sound like the couple everyone tries to avoid on a privately run Caravan site in Burnham.

    Didn't realise that Luton were supporter owned. For that reason alone it's great to see them pushing for promotion.

    Vinnie is way down through funding us.

    Swansea owners are way up on player sales income

    The player pot is empty now mind so the only way is down.

    Those Reading owners have to be at least part Welsh surely?

    I really should read the full thread

    Nothing wrong with Burnham

    Great fishing off that sea wall

    Pop into Minehead for the Adults Weekends

    Finish it off with Chicken Curry and chips

    Have it

    Avoid Taunton, please. We don't want any riff-raff here.

    PNE fans really don't like their owners, they think they're going backwards. Your point is valid, though. The Champ is a complete mess.

    Yeh, it's only those pesky asians that use tax avoidance and hide money. Wouldn't happen in the west, that's for sure. Any more xenophobia you'd like to spout while you're at it?

    Looks to me like they're staying exactly where they are.

    Preston's league finishes since returning to the Championship in 2015:

    2015/16 - 11th
    2016/17 - 11th
    2017/18 - 7th
    2018/19 - 14th
    2019/20 - 9th
    2020/21 - 13th
    2021/22 - 13th
    Currently - 12th

    They are the very definition of a mid-table side in a division that is getting steadily worse. It can't be much fun.

    Yeesh, that's dull. I think Ipswich went for about 10 seasons of nothing. Their fans really don't like Ryan Lowe either.
