Great touch from SCFC in news today, Steve Bellis taking the trophy to a lifelong fan who is sadly receiving end of life care.

Is the owner of Stockport actually putting money into the club, or his he loading the club with debt?

Putting money in. All loans he's given the club are being converted to equity

He's put a lot of money in and the only debt we have is the Covid loan that clubs received from the government.

Used to live near Stockport years ago and would regularly watch them if the Reds were not playing. A traditional working class club with die hard fans who have witnessed hard times to be rescued by a very rich owner. Plenty of similarities with Wrexham really and congratulations to them. They were at least a year ahead of us in their rebuilding but I still think we were slow to get our act together before the season started. A big difference though is, despite their decent fan base, they are too close to PL giants to really expand it much more. Whereas we could given the size of the catchment area and possible ground redevelopment. Hope we play them next season!

Thanks for this and I agree with the vast majority of it but it's worth noting that we turned ourselves around before the investment. I think we were even in the NL POs with Gannon at the helm when Stott completed his takeover. That season we missed out on the POs by PPG with Covid. But for the takeover we wouldn't have the squad and potential we have now but we weren't a complete basket case that needed to be rescued.

I agree that your catchment area is larger but it's promising that our gates have actually grown in non-league, admittedly from a low base when we were a mid-table NLN team. We're getting close to our Championship levels now and there does seem to be lots of supporters, young and old, losing interest in or touch with the PL.
