Apart from the fact we clearly haven't got any!
Since the takeover two transfer windows and our squad is still no stronger than when they took over, we are where we are thanks to DC and the team we had in the Conference before the takeover.
Stadium is no further ahead and will never be built, lots of talk about finances are not being a problem but no sign that we have any money to spend.
The honeymoon is well and truly over!

Evolution not revolution ! no money needed just patience....

Taylor had a release clause, we couldn't stop his sale.
Give them more time on the ground.
This week we could own our own training ground for the first time in a long time - in the majority of my lifetime at least if not all of it.
It's Darrell who doesn't want to spend and he's right if it's not going to be the right decision in the long run.

And the award for over reaction of the day goes to...
Seriously, today has been a kick in the nads, and I would have been disappointed to see MT leave for anybody, let alone to them. He must realise how much abuse he's going to get now. If he doesn't he's going to have a rude awakening!
However, we need to stand tall and not let the news today get us down to the point of meltdown and making ourselves look stupid.

Some of the over-reactions tonight have been totally ridiculous with people writing off our own soddin team, calling out our owner and calling our chairman a knob and a prick. Well done, cause if City do lose tonight this place sure will cheer them all up when they read it (and they will). 90% of the comments today have given them EXACTLY what Mr Lansdown wanted and some on here just sat up like lapdogs and gave them it. Embarrassing.

I presume it is the former and all football clubs should constantly get rid of their players and buy in new ones from somewhere else.

I agree the players and coaches have done a brilliant job stepping up to League One, but they were all here a year ago. If the takeover had not happened we would still be where we are because the credit goes to the players and coaches, but Hamer and Al Qadi take the credit, what have they done?

Embarrassing. Absolutely spot on Sir Alan. It has cost SL a reported 300k (pocket change to him) to turn us against our owners and send us into turmoil. We're a few points off a play-off spot. We are not a one man team. Let's get behind the owners, manager and players - an unprecedented 3rd promotion is in our own hands - let's try and make history!

Where have Hamer and Al Qadi taken the credit? I've never seen this documented or posted anywhere!

It's really starting to grate me with our fans growing obsession to throw money at everything. That's not what football should be about nor is it likely to do us any good. Our board is doing things the proper way round by totally reorganizing and adding substantially to our backroom staff and the new training facilities will only back this up and push it on further and further. These are just a couple of obvious points and I'm sure there are plenty of other positive changes and additions to the day to day running of the club that we are never likely to see.
You can't build a house without foundations if you want it to last.

I do think we are short now up front. our options don't fill me with confidence i can't remember last time gaffeney scored, don't believe James has scored, granted he hasn't played often, though what I've seen he's been average at best.
