So Forest, despite an average attendance of more than twice ours, a much higher turnover than us, additional investment of £30 million by the owners and increased debt of £45 million, are not exactly a roaring success.
I'm not sure how we will be better off by taking on more debt in the form of "investment".
I just can't see what the business plan would be.
If someone wants to give us say £30 million to do with as we please - great.
If someone gives us an interest free loan until we are swimming with cash - great.
Otherwise ploughing money in to create a debt we can't service is the road to ruin. In my opinion of course.
I'm not trying to be disrespectful here. The call for more investment is a common one. I'd just like to know how people proposing such a move see it working.
