Makes sod all difference though. I've worked for businesses owned by companies with massive market value, but it made no difference to my pay packet, and we had to achieve our margin like every other business they owned.

It's perfectly normal for the recipient of an ongoing service to expect the provider to make improvements to that service over time, and to share plans for the future with customers.

Too right.

You could have 10 billion but if you don't want to spend it means jack sh**, and even if you do want to spend it FFP stops small clubs getting bigger and keeps the big boys in their cosy environment.

As for the Al Qadi's they fall into the first category. The runt of their litter has been given loose change and has run out of pocket money.

I know size don't matter, it's what you do with it that counts.... so I am told

But I thought it was interesting as its the first time that I have actually seen a figure next to our owners name as it's been so secretive since Wael joined from day one.

I wouldn’t get to carried away with the accuracy of those figures, after all it is from the evil post!

It’s what the Bristol Post does best, makes up lists, really quite pathetic for a paper.

It does make you wonder why they brought us in the first place if they are not going to invest?

14th on that list is quite high up,and given there lack of investment I thought we would be in the bottom ten.

There wealth is £400m, to buy land for a new stadium (If you can find it in Bristol that is) and build the thing would cost £40/£60 million and it would set us up with a 25/30k ground that would be ready for premiership football one day.

New grounds always are followed by outside investment and success.So with us being from one of the UKs premier Cities they would get there money back and a very large profit when they did decide to sell.

Tom Gorringe has shown that outside investment/sponsorship is available even with an old stadium - pity the previous Board didn't recognise that

I suggest you both reflect on your choice of words and show respect to someone who may well have saved our Club from going into administration

It's not their fault, some people are more easily influenced by the negative sh**e put about by some than others are.
