For a minute, lets take away the last 15 years when the club has been owned by land obsessed 'investors'.

Lets just say for a minute we…the fans…had raised just 125k a year by bonds etc. And 125k a year had been put aside from the playing budget. Thats million plus interest…for argument sake lets say 3.5 million.

You'd only need 500 people putting in 200quid a year each to hit 100k. Im sure 10% of our fan base would 'buy into' something that had a real 'end goal' to it.

Of course this cannot happen when the club is owned 'by investors'. Of course the big benefit of an 'investor' is that they have a big wedge of cash to bring to the party to cover financial outlays that are not budgeted for. The only problem we've had is that neither of our last two 'investors' (unless you consider the Chinese overspend) appear to have 'invested' much! KT and co (like DC before them) did bring money to the party initially though to pay bills that the fans couldn't. Or the previous owner couldn't! for different reasons!!)

Id argue that a fresh start is needed unless KT and his fellow director/s reassure the fans quickly that they have positive plans for us. And by reassurance, Id like to see actual 'plans', not opened ended answers to closed questions. Personally Ive had enough of spin now!
