Lower league tycoon query

[Mattias333]

I started a save with King’s Lynn in conference National. Got promoted first season with real life chairman. Then second season in conference national (top of league) the chairman kept trying to sell the club. There was one failed local business man one but never got as far as a transfer embargo so guess it was never close.

I then got the elusive “things might never be the same” media message. Claimed a South Korean business man tycoon wanted to buy the club and would make £11.2m available for transfers. This went on for a month or two with the “deal close” and “deal close to falling apart” media messages repeatedly coming up…then a transfer embargo set in and it happened. 
 

I have screen shots on my laptop but there was a media message using the words “tycoon” and the landmarks tab now says the club was taken over by a tycoon. However a message was received saying he was making 100k available for transfers. I mean 100k at conference level was handy but not ground breaking as a tycoon take over should be in my opinion. Our wage budget went up but only to 7th highest in national league. The original media message did the usual “he will stop at nothing to make Kings Lynn the biggest team in the land”.
 

Either way I got promotion again in record breaking style to league 2. Budget released for that season 60k transfer budget and 60k salary budget which is ok but again not spectacular for league 2 by any means. 
 

The question I’m asking is anyone with experience of tycoon take overs, I know there is 3 different types of tycoons but if you’ve had one at lower league do they sometimes take time to start investing money. I mean my side like all conference sides bleeds money despite me never going over salary budget etc and operating carefully. The owner put £1m in to help with running costs at the end of the national league promotion season when the overall balance was £300k in the red (still no actual debt etc). He usually after an argument accepts requests to improve youth recruitment but any improvement to facilities gets rejected “because of the clubs financial situation” which I find odd as he’s a tycoon and the club balance is positive and no debt. 
 

I’m now at a stage where championship clubs are coming in for me. I always play my journey man saves as real as I can (virtually no rep, badges etc). I move when it’s realistic to etc. I didn’t know I’d get a tycoon take over but when I’m on £950 p/w and clubs are offering me £6,750 p/w wage in real life I’d surely jump to a massive club (derby and Coventry for context) but I’m tempted to stay because of the tycoon aspect. 

Playing round on the skin I use I noticed on the finances tab it tells you if which ever club your looking at, has a tycoon an what type (underwriter, foreground) etc. on my Kings Lynn save it just says Tycoon and no description of which. Only one I can find with no description as well. 
 

Is this normal for a tycoon save to be like this. I don’t want to leave and suddenly after over a year he starts acting like the announcements at his take over claimed he would be 😂. Basically what I’m saying is, after 30 plus years of playing fm and never getting a tycoon take over, if he’s about to give me a truck load of money randomly I will stay put lol.

Just some further images ref the tycoon take over.

Initial Budget for League 2 after promotion from National League. It didnt improve when I got to the summer.

Salary per year compared to rest of conference national after tycoon take over.

Initial budget immediately after Tycoon take over in Conference North. Largest its ever been. Only got smaller since.

Landmarks tab showing it was a tycoon who took over.

Initial message from the Tycoon after completing the takeover.

Tycoon media message saying he will stop at nothing to ensure King's Lynn become the greatest team.

Media message stating the tycoon promises to make £21.5m available for new players LOL!!! Gave me 100k really.

Evidence of stadium improvements forced on the tycoon to meet league 2 entry requirements. Only cost 100k

Also I use the WTS skin and on the club tab if you click finances it has a Rich benefactor section on the right. Under some like Man City it says Foreground Tycoon. Under others like Derby it says Underwriter, under others like Kidderminster for example it says none. On King's Lynn it doesn't list anything....anyone else had this?

The Tycoon who's taken over....his name's not Glazier is it?

I've had 2 take overs..... Once my game crashed before I could save it  but recently with Leatherhead in the South Conference I was taken over by a Korean who pumped millions into the club. Problem is, my back to back promotions has my reputation very low so I either cant get players or they get me to pay them way too much

Ouch! Similar to mine yet the opposite. I to got back to back promotions from conference north to league 2 with rep still being low. However, the tycoon has only pumped the odd million in for youth facilities. Transfer budget and salary has been minimal to normal levels. I'm gonna take a gamble and leave to a championship team but know they'll suddenly start getting millions when im gone.
