As a model of future policy then maybe OGC Nice provides a pointer. Fans there are in meltdown and the previous long standing 20% part owner (similar to Cryne position) and the CEO ev resigned this season over Dog keeping £30 million in transfer surpluses and drawing it from the club to pay off part of the loan he took to buy the club. No incoming major transfers ev been sanctioned, particularly strikers desperately sought by Vierra. Nice are now the second lowest scorers in the league. (And Goat ez stepped into the vacant CEO's shoes)
Wi the 20 million they layed art to buy this club I should think itull be a good three or four years afooar more sales of our big hitters like Potts or Bradshaw will begin to pay that back.

Pinnock will be next art followed by whoever tables a bid for the rest of our more talented players.

Once the initial investment is payed back to the consortium through player sales itull be interesting to see what happens to the money if the club turns over a profit, afterall they reiterated that they're here long term
