Oh the irony of yoof. Many, many idiots amass fortunes because of the old school tie they wear, who their parents are, the college they attended or as in the case of Trump with a small 100 m dollar loan from his Dad. Personally I would have said that anybody getting involved in business dealings with Brent is an idiot as Hallett has just found out. It's all this cap doffing to gentlemen in fine suits that aided and abetted the seven years of Brent and really needs to end pronto.

Yep but lets be clear that "fortune" extends to 3 figures. Takes a great deal of acumen to accumulate that and in my opinion he will see a sizeable profit if and when he moves on hopefully not to soon...

Everyone's being a bit trusting atm. Any "fortune" that SH has amassed has been done so by investing other people's money and taking a cut of the profits. Does anyone know how much SH is really worth, how much of that he might be willing to invest in PAFC and whether he's actually using his own money?

Given some of the dodgy dealings of US based so called "bankers" in the past, let's not celebrate until we are sure we haven't been stuck with Brent [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

Wouldn’t call it trusting as such as his profile is there for all to see unlike Brent’s.
As for making profit out of other people’s money isn’t that what all banks and building societies do ? it would appear he’s been pretty good at it not only in the USA but also in the Far East.
If there is a concern for me that is having one person owning 94% of PAFC but we shall see.

Not to sure the point your trying to make, reading Hallett’s profile and other on line info it’s pretty clear he’s just a smart cookie whose made the best of his brains.

Well Brent’s been moved on, so good job done by Hallett I think and we’ll see how it all pans out in the near future.

I think Hallett is a different character than Brent.

His total investment in the club must easily be the largest in its history.

Hallett puts his money where his mouth is, unlike JB, who I find to be a rather slippery character more interested in property investment.

So far I think Hallett deserves a good deal of praise. It’s easy to criticise but most of us, including me, have never tried to invest or help the club financially. Hallett has stepped up to the plate. He is a local person, even though he has spent years in the US and unlike Brent actually supported the team before he bought in.

I think he is genuine.

Brent had a reputation as a financial high flyer when he took over-remember how that turned out?
Had a US based businessman team up with Kagami a few years ago-remember how that turned out?
Why can't we just have a few local fans/businessmen take over the Club-Shyte, I remember how that turned out!

No comment on Trump because it blows holes in the argument that Hallett must be smart because he has money. Cap doffing shite that's got us in trouble before. I think Hallett is aa massive upgrade on the mare yet that doesn't mean he should be given a free ride actions speak louder thaan words and all that. Let's just hope his massive share injection persuades. Some decent players to sign because. At the moment we have no strikers to speak of barring Fletcher.

Don't think those of a right mind are giving him any kind of free ride but so far, so good. People on this site, particularly, have been crying out for genuine investment after the Brent years. Well, here it is. It might not be Abu Dhabi level but what he has done so far is significant.

You are right that we need to see this translate into some proper squad rebuilding but I think that is coming.

Didn't think I'd feel positive after such a depressing slide out of League One just a couple of months ago but it now seems possible we are going to move forward again, with firmer foundations in place.

I would feel happier without the groundhog day feeling literally every day as our targets sign for other clubs. The past three years have been marred by pre season bumbling and faffing with little or no action. Last year it ended in relegation" since that relegation we have got rid of three players who scored what 35 goals between them and signed one player likely to score five or six. Unless we replace those goal scorers non league football beckons. If we sign three decent strikers tomorrow brilliant but I won't be holding my breath.
I honestly do wonder whether Argyle fans prefer supporting owners rather than the players and team. I find it fooking baffling.

The £3 million is to cover running costs, infrastucture and additional costs for the Grandstand. So, for all we know, it could be £2.99 million for the building project, which is a straightforward business investment by a speculator, and a few quid to ease the summer cashflow. On the football side, several big earners have left, one of the few (probably the only) saleable player has been cashed in and a free transfer player has been signed from another relegated club. And the Manager is already telling the local press he won't be spending big.

If Brent had presided over, what is in footballing terms, a crap summer, he would be the subject of abuse on here. Yet Super Simon seems to be the Goldenballs of Home Park.

I'll become a Hallett fan, when and if, we see evidence of extra money going into the football team. I say extra, because on turnstyle income terms, PAFC should be among the top spenders anyway.

Time is ticking bye we've had the talk and fair play to si, he seems to have sorted out the finacial mess, now we want decent signings a club with ten thousand fans should have.
Forget Glasto Ryan, get some decent players in!

Brent copped the abuse because he didn’t put the money into the right areas, he copped the abuse because he never put anything in at all.

Comparing Hallett to Brent is taking it a bit too far imo.

Comparing the two is a pointless exercise Hallett should be judged on what he achieves and if he doesn't pull his finger out it will be another relegation. Just look at the team we have.

No plaudits from me.  We've lost the three good L2 standard players we had and now it looks like none of Lowe's Bury targets are coming.  This has to be the result of a shit playing budget. As far as the playing budget is concerned it looks like  nothing's changed under hallett.

I cant believe that Lowe would have come here with a Brent Budget if that is the case then its bottom six for the club.
However i think Hallet will give him the proper backing needed to get out of this shit league at the first attempt.

Zackly, the team is the only measure to judge a football club and at the moment it's worse than last year. What happened to the whirlwind weekend and strap yourself in?

If you want to start a thread on Trump then fine by me and I’ll join in, this thread is about Hallett and he has a proven record and funds to prove he’s smart, couldn’t find nothing about Brent to prove he constructs anything
But your right on about Hallett and no he shouldn’t be given a free ride but for now I’m liking what he’s done so far

I'll like him more when we don't have a relegation squad.

Been sceptical all a long about the playing budget plus soon as he was quoted as saying he will be running the club along the same lines & what with volunteers tidying up & doing maintenance as well I quess that’s what he meant now by running it along the same lines

2 of the 3 players you mentioned were offered increases in wage, but chose abroad instead.
Playing budget has has a sizeable increase from last year. Easily a top 3 budget, if signings don't come, it wont be due to budget.

It always amazes me how some people "know" private stuff from within the club, or do we have some Noolie wannabes? I doubt if more than half a dozen people within the club, know the budget Lowe has to work to. 

Whatever the details, we've already had several players leave as either they suddenly don't like Plymouth or more likely they had better offers. As for a "top three" budget, that would suggest the previous poster knows the playing budgets of all 24 clubs, not just PAFC! Certainly, as one of the better supported clubs in the basement division, I would like to think PAFC are prepared to spend the fans' money on the football team. I would also be cautious of saying that if signings don't come, it won't be due to budgets, cos if the Club are making good offers and not getting anyone, what's the reason.

I sincerely hope SH will pump money into the football side, but I haven't seen any evidence of that yet.

At the moment, PAFC have had a worse transfer window than both Torquay Utd & Exeter City!

Mayor signs

Brown sauce or red?
