Please don't be a wanker..
As stated previously...why would any business man invest millions in a football club and let it fail ?
It's relative...the sales in recent times of Henshall, Morrison, Cox, Greer, Austin have netted about 3 mill, of that we've spent approx 1 mill (including Cox initial fee) so 2 mill in, a profit announced at the last agm.
I don't suppose it will have gone unnoticed that a lot of the higher earners can be cleared out in the summer with a relegation, freeing up space for the recent acquisitions and probably the likes of Kennedy.
Given that in our last season in Div 4 gates were higher than previously in Div 3, it's quite conceivable another profit can be turned, which businessmen don't see as failure.
We fans do, but we don't pay the bills, and would happily see the club go to the wall, for a few wins if it meant getting players we can't afford.
PS I've posted before about shit runs in Div 3...12 without a win in 55/56, is what we're aiming for, generally reckoned to be the nadir of post war STFC, before Bert Head sorted it out.
That side had more points at the same stage, but finished off 24th, an all time low for the level
