Lai has to sell and quickly to get any money at all.
The potential of Premier League and big money is a false dawn for him. That is unless he actually invested more and allowed Carlos to build the squad and he could be at the helm of a promotion club. But he would have done that if he actually wanted it (or was allowed to).
The reality is that the potential is only theoretically and is only achievable if Lai sells. The potential relies heavily on us keeping Carlos at the helm and performing miracles with the players he has.
The minute the fire sale happens in January we are on a spiral of doom. We drop out of the promotion race, Carlos gives up and gets tempted away to a club with sponsors (most likely to happen in either scenario) and we end up with an unknown manager and the remnants of a squad to try and stay in the Championship.
Then we become yet another poor football club looking at managers starting their careers and building squads from the young and lower league starlets and will spend years, if not decades fighting to survive.
We need to protect this squad and manager at all costs. If this is not resolved by Dec 31 then I fear the very worse.
Happy Christmas everyone
