It's an asset of community value, that can't be released as part of a share purchase.
That’s good news.
Have you seen that confirmed or referenced anywhere ?

It’s the kind of good thing that Barry Kilby would do for the club if it was BK who brought it in when they bought the land back.

How much did we pay for Andre Gray? He was a very good signing by Dyche.
From memory it was £6m initially which rose to £9m on promotion.
