As said, relegation is a blow, now much on ice. In the prem there would be major improvements from american financial acumen, commercial savvy, global sponsor deals, investment in the club, all taking us to the next level. The 2002 investors had run out of gas. Apart from what I said before the americans already did a great stadium deal with the council. |

Yes that includes the Trust |

Well, did not the Trust inner sanctum take the position back then it will “never sell”? A defining moment. What were other investers meant to do? |

Whatever the spelling many improvements under the yanks. |

Yes pretty much by himself. All 2002 investors to be fair must be thanked for putting in money. |

Morgans specially and others wanted to sellout for max $$$ before the finances spiraled out of control - can you blame after all they did in 2002? Huw deserves cashout most as he single handed got us in the prem league. Be joyful the local boys Martin and Huw and Leigh are waiting to save the club again and start over. Thanks boys! |

Yeah, our saviors Jenkins and Morgan knew they couldn’t keep up with running the club on a shoestring and the spiralling greed of premier league agents. They wanted to make things better by selling the club to wealthy owners to professionalize things and better manage cash and invest with their access to vast american capital markets. Relegation was a blow but the americans are to be fair doing well already this season, listening to advice from Jenkins and Dineen, with slashing wage costs and finding a hungry new manager and giving youngsters a chance. This proves selling to the americans was a good idea, and at least better than the alternatives. |
