    I doubt we will ever see them at board meetings let alone match days, They have their money tied up in many bigger things than us to worry about. The club i expect will not change in the way its run and will carry on as we are but with extra revenue we can call on.

    A lot of money in your pocket can make the sanest of people do stupid things.

    given the £1.7 mn profit is very small, maybe an injection of cash is necessary to balance the books next season - our incomers and contract extension players are all thought to be on higher wages!

    I heard a rumor today from a good source that 2 of the board are planning to sell up their shares, if true how will that affect things and would`nt they be better off waiting till we get the big tv money deal first ?

    Eventually the club will announce some investors....It's getting to the stage now that we will be paying more than we are making the way we are spending money like water. i dread to think what our wage bill is and we haven't finished recruiting yet <laugh>

    Yet you want us to spend upwards of £100m on a new stadium, spend about £30m on new players this window, and at the same time stop ripping fans off [sic] by not having new jerseys until a new sponsor is made.

    Is your memory perhaps like running water Dai? As in flowing away your thoughts ;)

    There's always a return Dai, we spend the money on wages and we stay in the premier league hopefully, that is our biggest investment because it brings the biggest ROI.

    I would have thought you'd know that being the monopoly king
