How many really successful ones are there in European football? But they're perhaps the only ones with the willing financial power to do it cause there's nothing coming from the Gulf No-one can come in and splash the cash. UEFA PSR rules have determined that. Until we run a successful trading model we are absolutely fucked, end of Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be happier with a rich Scottish Orangeman who knows his sh*t, can run a club the way it should be run and found a Manager that thinks and manages a team like Walter Smith and Bill Struth combined. That would do nicely. Sadly, this fantasy is non existent nowadays. jamess, RFCHTID, DiamondBear and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted, hasn’t gone fully to plan for Birmingham and Burnley on the pitch but still, the nationality doesn’t matter. The owners we have now are fucking idiots. Wrexham are a total social experiment tbh. That can only go so far. Birmingham are a complete cluster fuck and Burnley have tried so hard to get away from what made the club relevant in the first place they'll go back to obscurity Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why else would they invest that money Nowadays folk are more interested in listening to podcasts revisiting old matches, weekly round ups, discussion etc etc. They don't get their extra info from having "press privileges" and Tbh, this summer, all they seemed to do is ask the club question and the club would say "not happening". It's basically a bigger hub for club content than the actual club itself so it would do just fine without the "press privilege" the post I was referring to suggested it needed. I don't care if people don't like them, it's their choice, but it's a bit daft having a pop at them when they've literally just tweeted that the board aren't up to standard - and have been beating that drum all summer too.

If Bennett is the Rangers man he says he is, then he should do the right thing and step down for the good of the club. Agree but he’s £20m into Rangers.
