You're making an assumption that once this case is settled the owners will back us.  I've no such confidence.

No they'll be able to. There's a difference.

They can now. Can we completely get away from this notion that they're somehow prevented from doing so because of the Court proceedings.

They are CHOOSING not to.

Well I never...BOOM! and there you go.

We might get a hearing around 2035.Sit tight folks.

It is all a put up job, orchestrated by the Venkys and their cronies in the Indian legal system...

I don't mean this disrespectfully or aggressively, but as a genuine question - as members of the Venky's family seem fully dug in to our club.

Who would have to retire, step down - or die - from the family, for Venkys to realistically sell the club - who is the family member(s) that's clinging on and preventing a sale. I can't see them passing us down to their children to inherit many years from now.

Like I said, not a "Let's Kill Venky's" post, more of a what would it actually take for them to sell us at a loss - as a Championship team.

That is literally their plan.

One of the sons who attends uni in the UK uses Jack's former suite (which is now adorned in Venky family portraits) occasionally throughout the season.

Their intention is to pass the club onto him in due course.

It never ends.

I honestly think they’ll own it for generations. Unbelievable really that we’ve ended up with such a unique ownership situation, in which they are not remotely interested in the club, but won’t countenance selling it either.

Just missed being able to attend in person. I’m flying back from New Delhi on 22nd.

There won't be a club to pass on.

A population of 1.429 billion. 

On a population-equivalent basis that would imply 2.5m cases in the UK. The legal system backlog here is bad but nothing like that bad.
