    They're serious about building a club that is sustainable for the long-term, which includes significant capital investment in infrastructure that brings in revenue on an ongoing basis.

    Some of the money from sales will be reinvested in players I'm sure - probably already has, but don't expect the club to be splashing big money. The emphasis is on value, and if they can pick up a great player for a small fee or no fee - as they did with Crowley and Rodrigues and Langstaff (to name but three) - then that's what they'll do, when those opportunities arise.

    I get a bit tired of fans laying down the law about how they think the club should be run. When a club is owned by private individuals it's the owners' prerogative to make such decisions, and the Reedtz Bros haven't got much wrong, unlike their predecessors. If fans want fans to call the shots, go back to being fan-owned club and see how much money there is to play with.

    The Bros have already said IF they got us to the championship they probably couldn’t take us any further. My bet would be they want us breaking even this season or next with the hope we may make it to the champ and then someone may want to buy us for 25-30m with a hope of getting us to the prem.

    I reckon Conor Grant has the potential to be the new Ruben. We shall see.

    Don't leave the door a JAH for that possibility.
