I am generally a supporter of fan ownership but feel that huge mistakes have been made by the football board. There seems to be no rhyme nor reason to some of those decisions. I can see no progress being made on the pitch with glaringly obvious issues not being addressed. Almost seems to be a board intent on self harm. Things just don't seem to stack up for me and haven't done for a while. If we need to revise our expectations then I would rather hear it like it is without spin then maybe we could all make an informed decision about the future of the club.

The same thing that the investors in other clubs get.

You won't. Not short term anyway.

But how come clubs like Fylde, Eastleigh, Fleetwood, Crawley, Forest Green, Salford etc etc have backers?

Loads on here said Fleetwood would go pop. Still going strong in League one.

It works both ways, you're asking people to explain whats in it for them, which is fair enough but there are many examples of people who do buy clubs and I guess do it because they love football and want to be involved.

The issue with us is that we've been shafted twice and its left fans uber paranoid even years later.

The difference now is that we or the WST are in total control. Don't like an investor? Then tell them to do one. It would be on our terms, we hold all the cards now. This isn't like before where the fans were on the outside looking in with no real control, everything is in the hands of the WST.

Do heads need to roll on the board?
Do heads need to roll on the coaching side including the out of his depth manager?

Or who thinks everything is Hunky Dory at the club and just needs some small changes?

My personal view is something is very wrong in the ever increasing secret corridors of power.

I think the club needs major surgery right from the ground up, if change is not made then this club will never go up and our loyal fanbase are at breaking point.

Rumour is some American consortium (i don't know if true or just rumour) are looking to take over Yeovil.

Big question with this club being a sleeping medium giant and a supported club that outshines clubs far higher in the football pyramid nobody is interested in us, I expect the usual we have nothing worth investing in by the scared of private ownership because of past crooks, be we have to learn from what was mistakes by the club then as regards to these owners. Or accept the club will never go forward of the field a bit like the team.

IF me and some of my business friends were invited to invest in the club what would you as fans expect from us and what would we get for our investment ? how would the share structure give us our security and power?

Sorry best ignore as I see someone else has made a similar comment.

I wonder what's in it for Leyton Orient's investor, as we wave them off to the sunlit uplands of League 2...
