I don't understand the O2 comparison, from my understanding the government paid the build and all other associated costs. They were desperate to get rid of it, AEG took a white elephant (albeit an iconic structure) off their hands. AEG had massive previous entertainment experience from the USA.
Us on the other hand are a rather small football club that's just about to get relegated with debts of approx £100m and owned by a bloke who made his money in the airline industry.
We will have to build our complex from scratch with little if any government help, taking into consideration the sale of LR, our debts before a ball is kicked in our new stadium is going to be approx £250m at the least. Ok if your real or utd who can absorb such debts but not a club whose fanbase number 15k.
For all those who say TF knows what he's doing or he has the best people around him. This might be the case but he had so called expert advisers when he signed MH and got his agent closely involved in transfers, he also sanctioned the purchase of Bosingwa and AJ. He said he made mistakes, what is about to be embarked on unless properly advised could be a disaster.
Wasn't it Amit who said we should take things slowly.

Originally posted by blueboy View Postthe comparison with the O2,is the amount of money it makes a year($121 million in 2010)we will have to build it,hopefully with money from investors who see an indoor stadium/entertainment complex as a good investment opportunity.QPR,and football,will be just a part of it.The debts we have at the moment,are partly owed to other investors in the club.This is all going to take quite a few years.It will,hopefully,be part of a large redevlopment area that will have large amounts of government cash invested in it.Football played the Charlie Ferris way

Originally posted by TBLOCKRANGER View PostThe absurdity of what we are planning to embark on is why I love this club of 15k supporters. Most clubs just get relegated, we in turn always have to take it a step further by spending a fortune in January for the sole purpose of staying up, we continue to be rubbish and accrue debts of 100m. However it's all going to be ok because we are going to get a retractable roof and unlike any other club in the history of English football we are going to become the new Donald Trump and become self financing.
this has got to be better than building a stand alone stadium

and KM who own tune group which is more than just an airline. Global entertainment including ownership of the venues is part of TF and KM's plan. I think they own an arena or two already
"Tune Group Sdn Bhd is a leisure and entertainment corporation founded by Malaysian entrepreneurs Tony Fernandes and Kamarudin Meranun.[1] Its subsidiaries include low-cost airline Air Asia, the Formula One team Lotus Racing[2] and the Premier League club QPR" (QPR are not part of tune group in fact because ruben and the mittals are shareholders. although finance, telecoms and hotels are within the group). Add to this PB's arena and entertainment experience
