    We don't need to sell anybody.Their value will rocket up when they see how good they will be in the Championship matches ahead.The club should be in a healthy state and by keeping our better players it will make the club even stronger.

    And I resent it because it isn't true. He isn't in it to line his pockets, absurd.
    Anyone with half a business brain can track back to the origins of his involvement in the club and see it was a good deal for him.

    I commend what he’s done with the club.

    Look how the stadium and the football club are structured. Look at who owns what and then come back and say it’s absurd.

    If you still believe that fair enough. We’ll just put it down to you not having the first idea about business or why Tony Stewart took it on in the first place.

    He isn’t going to walk away as chairman of this club poorer for taking it on. FACT.

    …….. and good luck to him BTW.

    Just look at how it’s structured. Consider land and buildings values. Look at the accounts of the related businesses. Do the sums.

    There’s enough information in the public domain.

    Tony Stewart got a lot of help when he took it on because people wanted the club to survive.

    It’s worked out pretty well for all parties. Long may it continue.

    If TS ever agreed to sell the club, he still owns NYS. What would it be worth at todays prices?? What would it cost to build now, 10yrs later? Probably a lot more than the £15M what it cost. How much he'd make on NYS might not cover what he's put in to the running of club.

    Avondale buddy, when Tony is no longer around, our biggest worry is Richard willing to keep it going? My gut feeling is no. That's when we may see a big upset at the club, that's unless i can crack the Euromillions big time and I'm straiaght in, screw the kids and Grandkids they can squander over what's left when I've gone

    Brin pal, i share your concern about the future. We've come a long way since 2008 and we now have a stable club with no, or very little debt.

    What no one has said is what happens when the stadium £15M is paid back thro the rent by the club?

    Yes I have the same feeling over Richard, we need to start chanting his name and getting to love us
