It has now become increasingly clear, the TFG are intent on a financial level of support that protects their assets value, insuring the club does not slip into the relegation zone, but will not put in the necessary funding to return the club to a level able to compete for the major Honours.
If this is their stance, then please, sell up, take your profit, and Leave, ASAP.

Unless you have insider knowledge, I would suggest it is not obvious at all. What is obvious by any measure is that TFG (like any good business) are intent on bringing the Club as close to solvency as reasonably possible.
This Window was a good one overall. SCR toward last days was 102%, but within the 30% overshoot. I am guessing that the players out, in the end, brought us back down.

I don’t think anything is increasingly clear other than we are in a lot better place than we were a couple of seasons ago. We are investing in youth, but still adding experience to the squad. Bringing greater investment into the club will only help in the future.
Apart from the fact, they don’t attend games, I really can’t see as they are doing that much wrong. Could be like Forest, I guess, whose owner seems to wake up and think who can I sack today.

We have come million miles since the Moshiri regime, so much better in every way, TFG have been our saviour.

I don't think anything is clear. What TFG have done is stabilise our club. The debts were astronomical and they didn't just vanish.

What is clear is that you have no comprehension of the financial state of the club, nor do you understand the mess that TFG picked up when purchasing us.
We have been in trouble financially since the FM era, splashing out the cash with a blatant disregard for the consequences of spending above our means. TFG, no matter whether you dislike them or not, have put us back on stable ground and, moving forward, we will have money to spend. The new stadium will help pave the way for making cash not just through football but from concerts, rugby etc.
They want outside investment, but a lot of the top clubs have more than one person putting in the money. Running a football club is an expensive thing, long gone are the days that a simple millionaire can invest and keep things ticking over. Even as a billionaire, they need deep pockets to fund a Premier League club.
We could just go back to finding someone as reckless as Moshiri, throwing money at everything and eventually come close to administration again, point deductions and heavy fines.
We were very close to the 30% buffer on the new financial system that the league is using. We had no choice but to bring that down to a more manageable figure otherwise sanctions would eventually follow. Would you prefer that?
I don't care whether the owners come to games or not, that's their prerogative. They have the people they have hired representing them at the match, so I don't see what that has got to do with anything. As long as they are keeping us financially competitive and continue building a better club beyond the football team, then I am happy. Rome wasn't built in a day so let's see where they take us. One thing is certain, it isn't as bad as the FM era and we are pulling away from league sanctions. Surely that is a good thing?
