    His main aim is to make money? An American living in Minnesota with a few million to burn sees investing in. Scottish Soccer team as his best bet to make money from an investment? Terry, with the greatest of regards, you’re talking a pile of pish there. If his main aim is to make money there’s a thing called the stock market. Every man and his dog could tell you footballs a bottomless pit.

    He said that (£££) was what he was in it for. Fair play to him for the honesty. We knew it was gonna be a capitalist as soon as we heard the words 'American inverstor'.

    Like yourself, I'm thinking 'that's a hard gig in Scottish Football'.

    Let's face it, we're in the lap of the gods here. Marko & Son may give us a few thrills as they mount their assault on the 'top six'. But at the end of the day, WE all know that they ain't makin any profit.

    They could have a good time though.

    I have no idea why but i feel like my club is back from the horror show it was. Could be a disaster and promotion may not happen this season. Interesting to see how our owner would react to that.

    Impressed by his answers. Although making money is a tough gig in football at least he recognises it is only possible with a team performing regularly towards the top of the premiership. Fingers crossed that isn't too far away!

    Encouraging it has already convinced some to pick up half season tickets. Hopefully will see many others do likewise.

    Fair play to Mike Martin too. Did what he said he would do. Not all his decisions were everyone's cup of tea but has done what he promised. Left with dignity I think.

    Good interview, things about to get very interesting with United.

    Considerably more positive than recent times. Finally turning the corner hopefully.
