Probably when we haven’t just won.

it must be hard being angry all the time, sometimes it’s nice to smile

I’m not in that camp , I do smile by the way however it can’t be lets All pretend it’s ok when we win or it’s all depressing & shite when we lose
Has to be a balanced view regardless
I think the OP has a valid point

Sure, it’s neither the great or shite position that this board seems to specialise in

How much is the owner worth or how much does he want to invest in the club is more direct ?
The neglect of the stadium is unacceptable
Theres a lot wrong with the running of the club

what does the owners worth have to do with anything? its the club that needs the money to improve the facilities, the owner has his money, and covers the clubs losses, but the owners money isnt the clubs money...
He is running SAFC as a business, precisely as he said he would, and while he is getting a lot of things wrong, there has been a lot of progress as well.

I would probably say that he is the main source of capital as most owners of clubs are
Are you a bit thick ?

except for the clubs that make a profit or take external financing..a la chelsea newcastle tottenham man utd etc..ie clubs that are big enough not to need handouts from owners as their only way to exist

I already have done, several times.

Last season for example we were the 6th highest spenders in the division.

If you account for expenditure versus outgoings, only Norwich spent more than us.

Only 5 sides in the division spent more on one player than we did on Ballard.

It's impossible to compete with the sides who have parachute payments unless you want to go bust very quickly.

Apart from those sides, we are being extremely competitive in terms of transfer spend.

Agreed, investing in overly tight salmon leisure slacks, with elasticated waist (for comfort) should be the cornerstone of any solid business plan.
