It doesnt matter whether the Well Society own the club or a multi billionaire. We still have to live within our means. Billionaires dont become billionaires by giving away their money. They only lend it to football clubs in the form of loans that require to be paid back. Kettlewell had plenty of money to spend, regardless of how he made out that he didnt. He just didnt spend it as wisely as he might have. Thats why we are running a 34 man squad. Obviously, if the Society can bring in more outside investment, that will be welcome. But we still have to spend it properly. Same with any money we make off Lennon Miller. There are ways to grow a football club even at our level. If we start by not pissing it up a wall it will be a good start! I know you're talking in general so no offence taken. There's a difference between investment and soft loans. A company or entrepreneur if theyre making enough money will always look to invest somewhere that raises their profile and fits into their ethos as it is effectively written of against tax. I look forward to finding out the progress on this front from the WS in time, I've every confidence that they're on the ball with that. Totally agree that Kettlewell made a total arse of his signings and to end up with the size of squad we have is testament to negligence and I again look forward to seeing what our wage bill is for this season.

We could definitely do with some updates on the outside investment opportunities, if only to keep the narrative under our control. We have some good people with skills and expertise on both the Well Society and Executive Boards now who are more than capable of increasing our revenue streams. I just get very frustrated when I see posts that dont take any account of how much change has occurred in the last 12 months on both counts. (Again not directing that at your good self).

I'm like you and suspect you're talking about all the naysayers on X and FB who really don't have a clue about inward investment and have an axe to grind with the WS. An update would be good as I think from memory they said something would be announced last year and with nothing concrete yet forthcoming it just gives these trolls more ammunition and theyre probably the same ones who were dishing out the abuse to Kettlewell ( deserved or not). I've every confidence that our finances are under control. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
