Default Re: Still thinking of voting NO?

Out of interest has anyone been able to confirm why we're in such bad shape financially?

One of the main highlighted benefits of being owned by WST has been that they've been able to keep us sound financially, turn us into a profit generating club (or at least not making mad losses), with player sales/cup runs seen as a bonus rather than a lifeline we rely on.

Obviously covid hit and has messed things up but it seems like this runs deeper - how has it gone so wrong?

Will the Peppercorn be framed and hung on the wall as an everlasting memento should the deal go through?

I think it should...

Posh frame too.

Mainly bad decisions on the footballing side of things.... poor choices of managers, sanctioning crazy deals for players, strange clauses in contracts etc...

Board members making unqualified footballing decisions has cost us dearly.

It will be interesting to see assuming the takeover goes through the team that the 2 Ronnie's put in place to run the club. I assume there is a list of qualified football ceos they can go to and cherry pick from.

I think I should get to eat it, maybe we could push R&R for loads of peppercorns and we all get one?
