How Rich Are We Now?

Not as much an Issue I said. We can be as rich as City but if we don't spend correctly we won't be successful. Hopefully we'll now see successful planning and a bit of funding to boot!
This is what I was getting at really. Donald never had the funds to sustain in the PL really. I know football has changed with FFP and such but you still need a bit of money behind you.

Kind of agree but Huddersfield Norwich even burnley and west Bromwich aren't rich and all been to prem recently.
 
Did we sell out every home game?

Thats was the selling pitch Quinn gave Short.
You know what Quinn said to short. Your better informed than madbob you like! We had very good attendances for the division. Short was rich but he's admitted himself he made terrible decisions and employed the wrong people. That's what cost us.
 
Rich enough to change the name of the stadium to the KLD stadium and maybe do a SSV Markranstadt, that wont happen of course.
 
Surely the richest we've ever been? Between Dreyfus, Sartori and his missus and whatever Metheven and Donald have (admittedly fuck all) we have more money than most people realise. I'm not going to go around shouting about it but it's a nice feeling to have.

As we learned in the premer league, its not the being rich, that was the problem its the investing in the right areas to build a winning team, its simple really, spend money on team recruit players that can be sold on and give speakman what he needs in the background, and we should be half way towards becoming a serious outfit again.

They haven't officially taken control yet.

I've got a good feeling about this one, I have to admit. The owner has a football family background. He'll have been well versed in what he should do.
Burnley sustained their status without fortunes. Leicester have just spent what they earned as have Southampton.
Yeah fair comment but Leicester and Southampton still have a fair bit of money behind them. Let's not pretend their paupers because they're not.

the gold taps are back on the agenda and we are replacing the AOL manure with the fresh shite from Arabian thoroughbreds to give the trees at the academy a little boost.
