Yes, invested money - certainly more than £1
If that's all it took anyone could have put their hand in their pocked for a quid.
If she hadn't.....what? Who knows. Someone else may have come in, but from all accounts there wasn't a queue.
Would we have ended up in Admin & like Swindon? Bradford? Scrabbling around in the lower divisions for decades.
People rightly mention the 3rd party stumping up cash for Hucks & he was pivotal - but it wasn't just him. Money was found for Crouch, McKenzie, Svennson...etc...
I've no issue with her having taken her money back if she has done - I'd do the same and as far as I'm aware she doesn't take anything else money wise from us.
We still have a strong club, we've had some great times & no doubt we will again.
If someone with deep pockets comes along and buys us, then great, but if she chooses not to sell, then so be it. She's the majority shareholder.....her choice.
It's no more a dictatorship than the Glaziers or any other club which has a majority shareholder in my view.
