If you want a recent example of asset stripping by owners paying themselves huge salaries whilst putting in as little as possible (I.e. next to fuck all), look no further than Port Vale.
To clarify, I'm not leveling that accusation at our new lot, but if you're saying clubs at our level are never a target for that type of parasite then you're wrong. There are plenty of examples.
However in light of the fact that Black has been bunging money into the club previously to meet day to day running costs suggests that the club is not sustainable in its present state, therefore to add substantial salaries to the mix would need further investment to pay the salaries, therefore would they not have to invest their own money to pay themselves.
Couple of other things...
The 1957 debt irritated me, but on reflection it is so specific I suspect there must be some truth in it otherwise it shows a fantastic imagination to come up with that. Equally even if it is only £30k I would not expect them to pay immediately, if it has come out of the blue I would expect them to look in detail before paying.
In terms of long term plans I would rather they concentrated on short term till seanson end, equally we don't know what they are doing in private as I would rather it was reasoanble and sorted until they launched.
I remain to be convinced either way on things, their communication hasn't been great but then if the whole debt embargo thing is unexpected and as off the wall as it sounds then I would rather they got on with sorting it out rather than making statements.
Jed made a big deal of wanting to engage with fans groups etc when he took over, has that happened yet, to me that in the first term is the key illustration of what their true aims/angle is.
