You'd have to ask the question how the hell we allowed that to happen though with 2 recent promotions to the EPL and sold Emi for £35m. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GJL Mid-Norfolk Canary 1,805 Posted September 23, 2023 I'd love to know if we'd have sold Omabamidele a week before the window shut , if we'd have still signed Hwang, or spent a bit on someone better ...sadly I still think it would have been the former Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty straightforward - husband and wife combo running the Club (the Webbers, not the Smith’s) with no independent scrutiny. Money wasted everywhere…..

Money wasted everywhere….. Well actually two sets of husbands and wife's. Farcical situation has been allowed to develop and one can but pray that the boy Athanasio may see through this and take the necessary action. Oh wait! He's wedded to The Stowmarket Two for another 2 years and 4 months 'at the minimum'! May God have mercy on our souls. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duncan Edwards 2,271 Posted September 23, 2023 Is there any way we can find out about the money? I think the club should have to show where the money goes every year as a bare minimum. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They perhaps should be scrutinised by a regulatory body every year but I might be going a bit far with that one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All businesses lost money, NCFC continued with the season ticket renewals back in 2020, because we’re self-funded. Supporters paying the price, again.

nutty nigel 7,648 Posted September 23, 2023 I reckon the money's gone where it always goes. And I reckon folk want richer owners so that more money can go where it always goes. Covid? I remember that. For a few short weeks when we were most scared there were threads saying it would bring about a reset in values... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
