yup. WHich i hate BTW. I really really hate this.

My head knows we need a Saudi or whatever.
My heart hates the prospect.

I would love it LOVE IT for us to be able to compete and suceed under the current board.
A Board made up of people with a genuine love for the club and the fans.
With a desire to do things they way it used to be done (albeit one that shows a lack of ability at times).

Can't be done though. So i'm left with a choice between supporting a succesful rich club that no longer follows my own beliefs on how the sport should work, or supporting a club stuck in a downward spiral that will surely end in league one football at some stage.

        i think i'm fairly much with you on this (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Mar 24, 10:39:59
        
        Indeed - mere pontification and we'll never know (NCFC) - duke of york, Mar 24, 10:37:38

      - Yes, I guess it's semantics (NCFC) - duke of york, Mar 24, 10:26:56
