Throwing money at a white elephant would be pointless especially as it would not be sustainable. Once the money ran out then so would the system.

Whilst we remain outside the football league then funding the COE has become difficult so we have to either use all available money to get back into the league (that then solves the financial issue) or look at ways to make the COE self funding on an annual basis. This means attracting sponsorship for youth that would not come into the club if it were spent on the first team.

If we got £1m for Ward then I would fund the COE for 1 year to allow them to build a pot that could be used over future years. Put a big chunk into the first team with a 2 year plan and then keep the remainder in the WST for use as a loan bank for community, ground and disabled projects (all of which would be repayable).

So £200k COE, £500k team, £300k WST. Just a thought
