Dean Coneys boots 1,484 Posted November 21, 2017 It is very frustrating. All but the most wilfully blind happy clapper can see that this board is stale- well beyond its use-by date. A hangover of local club ownership struggling to compete in the global era. We should be very grateful for all they have done. But knowing when to leave is as important as knowing when to step in. And the days of them helping this club move forward are long gone. Which is why we stagnate under this watch and see nepotism creep in (nephew Tom and celebrity Ed Balls) where business sense should dominate. Doubtless the nay sayers will be quick to shout that money doesnt necessarily bring success. Fine. But a lack of it most certainly guarantees failure in the mid to long term. I stand by the belief for which I am often attacked on this site. That we will not remain a decent champ team unless the board is replaced. We are heading to League 1 on this watch. It is there for all to see....Perhaps once Klose, Murphy, Maddison and Pritchard are sold to cover costs, and we can no longer afford Gun and Harrison on loan- that fact will settle in... purchasing cheap players from other countries and then hoping for the best is not a road map for long term glory Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rogue Baboon 0 Posted November 21, 2017 Ashley selling Newcastle.West Ham fans want Sullivan/Gold/Brady out.Both have been relatively successful at their current clubs, both avoid the ‘foreign ownership’ stigma, both have experience of the English leagues.So would we be against either if they approached Delia?

If you did have that money would you buy the football club you love and then be made unwelcome by the other fans if the players you were financing didn''t meet others expectations?And another serious question.

If I were worth a few billion then yes I’d throw money at the club, if I were worth what Delia is, then no chance, because football has moved into the playthings of the mega rich now.
