BarberSaint Posted October 20 Share Posted October 20 Strikes me there are too many people who think Solak is like them. He isn't. He isn't a fan either. He likes golf and presumably there's a use for the club. He has a 33% stake in his old company which grew from local to very big quite quickly - I wonder how (it was funded)? He seems to want to be Rupert Murdoch. I can see his interest in Turkey as a market, but can't see any reason to take an interest in SR either as an investment vehicle or a vanity project unless he wants to help out RA with his assumed wealth of $5m or thereabouts unless getting into football gets you connections in other things: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dragan_Šolak_(businessman) https://www.europeanbusinessreview.com/how-gino-pozzo-transformed-watford-fc-football-club/ https://portasconsulting.com/insights/multi-club-ownership-the-questions-facing-european-football/ https://footballtoday.com/multi-club-owners/ https://footballtoday.com/multi-club-owners/ https://www.sportcal.com/features/multi-club-ownership-the-roots-opportunities-and-challenges-of-the-accelerating-trend/?cf-view https://footballleagueworld.co.uk/how-rich-the-southampton-fc-owners-are-compared-to-the-championships-wealthiest-clubs/ Can't see much interest in the multi-club model although the Americans are taking over the PL so presume we'll be sold more crap so maybe he wants to use it as a vehicle to network with them or move money to the UK or ... ?

Turning the clock back further there was a link to something towards the end of the season when we dropped to the Championship, it was mentioned that Solaks people were alarmed that Saints in particular were burning through Dragans money at an alarming rate. SR might have voiced that plan only to find “Daddy” had restricted their pocket money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be the flagship to base other clubs around. Instead, RalphBall was busted when they bought us, and they're finding out that keeping a club in the PL with their plan isn't financially sustainable for their model. They may end up with a multi club model, just based in different leagues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Solak sees being an owner in the PL as useful when negotiating rights for PL football deals in Central Europe. From memory, his broadcasting company lost the PL rights in Serbia having fallen out with the Govt there, so I always assumed he bought Saints as a way of influencing future TV deals in that region and usurping the Serbian govt. influence. The French club ownership is (I imagine) a vehicle to access the African player market more readily as part of their player-trading plan. They probably see some potential in the Turkish market independently (big population etc), and also owning a PL side helps their status there. I'm sure there's a plan for the Group. I'm astonished at how incompetent their management of our football planning and operations has been (and how costly). Solak must be spitting feathers. Ankersen has been predictably wily in distancing himself from the UK ops. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morse Posted October 22 Share Posted October 22 By any metric you care to apply, Sport Republic have been abysmal owners. The whole outfit seems rudderless. Bizarre managerial appointments, millions spent on players that never play, a director of football leaves and isn't replaced, and now talk of a mystical 10 year plan, the desired outcome of which is never explained. Dragon needs to bin off the Danish clowns, ditch the foreign clubs and get back to basics with a new off field team. 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably focusing in on Rasmus's involvement at Brentford, at the time looking like a coup, but now it's plainly obvious that Giles was the mastermind behind Brentford and Rasmus was just his PA, if that. The entire 'group' is bereft of any actual footballing experience, that's why having someone like Wilcox around was a positive as he knew the actual game in this country. I know big clubs will always tempt players/staff away, but the frequency at which it happens under SR is incredibly alarming. Doesn't strike of an environment that's fostering any sort of consistency in anything. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FarehamSaintJames Posted October 22 Share Posted October 22 Sport Republic effectively are trying to build a mansion without laying an foundations. It’s all well and good having a multi-club model once you built up the support network and infrastructure but you cannot do it overnight and rush it which I think they’re clearly doing. SR should look at what the City Group did. They focused on the area of Manchester first, redeveloped the entire area, plowed millions into it, and as that developed and the portfolio widened they then branched out abroad. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you look at city group they are not doing all at well either in Europe (except for City itself). Lommel SK has been lingering in Belgium 2nd division; Troyes FC got relegated to the French 3rd level (just like Valenciennes FC, coincidence ?), only to get saved at the last minute thanks for Bordeaux financial demise; now they are seating bottom of the table, very likely to join Valenciennes FC next year ... I don't understand this multi club ownership model, if it is supposed to mimic the farming model baseball franchises established in the US then it is failing miserably. SR is burning money with VA FC (~10M Euro budget, with almost no revenues). Making them look like philanthropists. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HarvSFC Posted Saturday at 17:34 Share Posted Saturday at 17:34 Everyone knows their mistakes of the previous Premier League campaign and the poor signings of last year, so won't list those and you could slightly forgive them for it being their first year and they did at least invest a lot, which they also did this summer. However, in 2024: 2023, but still affecting us today and all season - Didn't replace the set-piece coach. Been awful attacking and defending them ever since. Didn't replace Jason Wilcox, instead chose to promote within, and judging from the summer, it hasn't worked. We gave another contract to Alex McCarthy, still eating up a portion of our wages. We gave a new contract to Russell Martin. Despite, scraping promotion last season and not even starting the new season to see how he would fare. You can imagine the pay off is slightly in the owners mind in regards to sacking him. We went for quantity over quality in our signings again. 12 first team signings, without including the likes of Welington and the Goztepe and Valenciennes signings and the only ones who have improved their positions are Lallana at 36, Fernandes and Ramsdale. Taylor, Edwards, Wood, Brereton-Diaz and Fraser barely get a minute and Sugawara and I assume Archer from today are in and out of the eleven. That then brings us on to our two loan spots. The two loan spots that needed to be used smartly as they could have been used to get in some real quality to help us out. Instead we went for Ugochukwu and Cornet. Two more that barely ever play. Rubbish. They spend a lot of money on a lot of crap hoping to make a profit, while making a big song and dance about how having a football group can improve our scouting setup across the world. Last summer the sales of Lavia, Livramento, Tella and Ward-Prowse made up for the shitshow signings of that year and next summer Dibling, Fernandes, Ramsdale and Harwood-Bellis will earn us good money. But, this is an awful way to run a football club and so far SR have been given an easy ride by the fans. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All of this is a fact, and has been obvious with SR for a while. Need a latter day John Williams as SFC CEO, have a strategic hook-up with an agent like Wolves had with Mendez next season until the scouting department is rebuilt top to bottom and ensure Rasmus’s nose is kept firmly out of any transfers. Hire a first team manager committed to the type of press then pass football which suits Saints and what the fans enjoy and recruit players accordingly with pace, power, maybe raw but the materials to improve. Even when a transfer looks a good deal on paper, the first team manager has right of veto. SR themselves need a couple more investors with Dragan to get the headroom up to 3-5Bn which is the minimum for a multi club model and dilute Rasmus and Henrik’s influence. A global figurehead like Patrick Vieira or Henry would make them be taken far more seriously in the industry. At the moment, all they’re doing is giving a horrific glimpse of what Pinnacle would’ve been like if Markus hadn’t bought us. Professionalise or sell up this season. Your choice Dragan. I wouldn’t invest in setting up a hotel chain as I don’t have a hospitality background, I’d start with a smaller hotel and hire very experienced in that industry around me first. They have never got Saints right at the core before taking on two more clubs with not much success so far either.
