It wouldn’t have gone down well in my household if I’d said was going to get a loan for (say) £50k to help buy Wrexham. I might’ve been sitting pretty with the student flats but that’s not the point.
We've got a core of around 5k of very loyal supports, selling shares at £100 each raises half a million. Also absolutely no guarantees that bond would ever be payed back either.

'Proper fans' as some WST members put it would've remortgaged their homes anyway
