Do we need an Investor?

But you've explained it very well here draig, so maybe, just maybe it might sink in now?

I don't consider myself "one of their flagwavers" as I don't know anyone on either board.
How much influence do you think you'd have if we had a private owner?
Man U fans aren't too happy.

There you go then. Case proved. Better off as we are. Simples.

Tell me when you see that swallow in April and I will go out and get new barbecue equipment.

We're also suffering because (and I was no great fan of DB as a person but he could do the job he was paid to do and agree some mistakes were made by him as well esp when G Mills came in) the two professionals involved in running the club Horne and in particular Bircham left and weren't replaced.

Because the utterly out of their depth individuals in charge don't think they need professional help when clearly they do and/or are running it (very much with the ever present Pep Darlington) as there own little plaything and don't want others treading on there toes and/or are utterly obsessed with sub Corbyn politics and the purity of being a fans owned club not with results on the pitch.

We've got practically no influence now so there's not really much difference. Have you even read this thread? There are two posts one by draig and the other by Haruki that clearly explain why and how we have, in reality zero influence. Conveniently ignored no doubt.

This ownership model sees thousand of pounds wasted every season on hair brained managerial appointments and pay offs, but its not their money so it won't have the same impact as if it were a private owner. Do they really care how much money is wasted? I don't see that in their decisions.

Anyone still trying to bang the fans owned drum for this club needs to look at the league, point me to the disabled platform in the stadium, disprove all the lies they've spread and then maybe it'll be worth listening. Until then all the evidence is against you along with all the other privately owned clubs doing far better than we are..

What we have written on our WST membership card does not mean Jack. Artistic licence, if you like ! Best not to be taken in by it.

I know that I can attend meetings and put forward resolutions and that if enough people vote for them they will have to be acted on.

Are you sure about that? The second disabled platform fiasco suggests it’s less of a ‘will have to be acted on’ and more a ‘if the board feel like it they’ll act on them.”

You got your card then? Lucky you. Been waiting months and months for mine.

You're beginning to sound like someone who needs their laptop checking by the police.
