This description of 'will do a job in the championshop' is being levelled at a lot of our players, but going by last season and how they performed as a team, they'd be lucky not to be in another relegation battle in the champioinship.

Good player and would be a excellent signing (in terms of on field ability) for a Championship club. But I'm not really up to date with his off field antics, as he actually done much wrong.
Wyness has said that Xia is in negotiations at the moment, but nothing will be announced this week. From that it sounds like something could happen fairly soon. I think he was in the US recentlyishly (going by his Weibo) so maybe he's found a smallish club there, to invest in.
An unknown Spanish club was mentioned a week or so back. In some cases, especially with European clubs, it might just be a case of forging partnerships, rather than Recon actually buying the clubs out.
I suppose it's exciting for some, I guess because it's seen as further evidence of Xia's financial credentials, although I don't think it would cost heaps to buy an A-league team. City only bought Melbourne for about £12M.
