Hi Linda,

 

Yep - c'est la vie.

You think Mo's 1.2m would be for pishing up the wall on the playing budget then? Dont you think we would be better investing it into the club, rather than on a one-off juice of the playing budget for a couple of years?

 

What about RW Suite?

Finishing Lorne Street?

Improving the bogs?

Training/Youth facilities?

All Weather pitch?

Better catering facilities?

Scouting network?

What ever we did with it , it's a dam sight better than what the idiots running our club could dream of

[sandyford_valiant]

That's of course if the Manager Micky Adams wanted him.....

[Mr Carter]

That investment will now be tied up in the Esporta deal, wonder if Mo is knocking it down and building houses ?

Sure, but this isn't about the current lot. Its about the next lot and how their 1.2m investment would be best spent.

 

Personally, I think playing budget isn't the highest priority with that kind of cash to play with. And I don't really see it as a wise "investment" into the club. We would be better off spending the money on something that would add long term value, rather than just using it to run a larger loss for a couple of years.

No - Thats my point. They did spend a lot of money on an unaffordable playing budget though a few seasons back.

[valeblue]

:doh:I give up , is it me ??

[tisdeano]

No - Thats my point.

 

And I agree

 

However of the 1.2m I agree also, some should be used on the playing side, some will be used to get us out of immediate danger and hopefully whats left can be used to improve infrastructure.

Hi AVIM,

 

The investment was considerably more than the £1.2M acquisition of new shares and we had budgeted for investment in the business and an improved playing budget. Players such as Ryan were well within our budget. Our priority however was to invest in the youth set up ad that is where we see the long term value.

 

However I am not going to re-open the debate on the bid as "we are where we are" in the words of your esteem Chairman.

 

Kind Regards

Maybe one "trophy" signing to get everyone excited, perhaps. I could understand that. But I really dont think we should be wasting a 1.2m opportunity to add some much needed improvements to the club's infrastructure.

All that's going to make a big hole in the 13k:D
