Away from the playing side, if you're after that stadium that earns 365 days of the year that some have mentioned, there'll need to be initial outlay there. It won't run or market itself..

It won't, but you'd like to think with two accountants running the club, that it would operate at a profit, and it would probably be money that they weren't making before.

It`s a good job you`ve come on to tell us this Clearwing, hopefully our BOD will be reading this as I`m sure they would be just expecting to build a stand, close there eyes and for cash to fall from the sky, landing on there lap.

Wasn't aimed at your directors, Wildcat29. Seemed to be a discussion about whether financial input was all it should be. Point I was trying to make was that there are considerations beyond the first team squad. Same as for lots of clubs with new/redeveloped grounds.

Good for him, much better quality of life and a lot less stress.
It certainly is Timmy, better pace, and healthier.
Knowing that the sun will shine most days of the year, does wonders for physical and mental wellbeing.
It was only ailing health of our parents that brought us back in 2015.
We will return ourselves one day, and a couple of benefit of what I do now is that I am pretty much my own boss and home based, so I could do it anywhere in the world with little interruptions

So, if MC goes now who's going to run the club? Whatever the reason is for what's happening on the pitch, the blame doesn't lie with the directors running the club. They have been badly let down as we all have. They appointed WP as coach following good performances initially and to the approval of most on here. They sign players on the recommendations of the coach, so they are hardly to blame for the playing personnel. Sorry, but the buck stops with WP for me. He's got too much faith in some players who are simply not doing it for him. He needs to have a long hard think and fast, because, unlike many other survival years we've had in SL, this year we ARE the worst team and I seriously think this year we've been well and truly found out.
