In that year we lost 24.7million. Over 5 x what we lost the previous year. That was a big gamble for us...bearing in mind we were and still are paying off the last fine
We took a calculated gamble that year, which we felt (at the time) we could mitigate if it all went wrong. We didn't go all out in a $4!t or bust gamble that could put us out of business if it went wrong. We also gambled again by not selling Willock, Chair, and Dickie when they had significantly higher resale value.
We didn't take a big enough risk maybe. I understand all the risks, but I dislike hearing some opinions on here which just seem to say that we should simply accept our fate and give up. The only way to get to the Premier League is to have an awful lot of money behind you it seems.
This could easily be us in the future so I don't find any enjoyment about their plight. Fit and proper test of owners by the EFL is a joke.
