This, the thing is the vast majority of supporters we're prepared to give these owners time providing we could see a plan to build the club back up.

They talked the "Dortmund" model yet proceeded to flog all the kids for a quick quid and had a scattergun approach to player recruitment.

I'm not fussed how rich the people are who own us, I just want to see a plan based on youth setup and bringing in the best youngsters who'll can improve us and increase their value
The fans gave then 1 full season before demanding that they leave because they appointed a manager that wasn't famous enough.
None of the youth players the owners inherited were good enough to play in the 3rd division.
 
No one is saying anything regardless of good or bad reputation.
I can make vague shite up too and say I believed it.
 
Mark Donnelly from the echo tweeted then deleted that the sun story is Campbell was due to start due diligence last week but Donald pulled the plug last min. Also that we want to give Onien a new contract and that we are after Danny Graham

Must get the same info as Nixon then 😂

The problem was never that he didn't spend the money, rather who he employed to spend the money.

Similar could be said for Donald. The highest wage spend for the 1 completed league one season which included funding Catts and Oviedo's wages which will have been unprecedented for league 1 and I dare say the same will be true for the wages spend for the incomplete second season.

We've also spent the most on agents fees by a long way.

Throw in the fees paid for Grigg and Wyke, money that league one teams rarely spend, it has to be said that we should have escaped league one and its down to Hill, Coton and Ross that we didn't.
