I meant, no sign, with this kind of investment

That they'll plough large chunks of money in year after year after year.

Not that they'd bail quickly.

Usually there's an initial splurge and then (at best) a trickle to keep things ticking over.

The question, in my mind, has always been whether our current owners' considerable experience is worth more than the £5mil per year ish, that other wealthy owners tend to punt in (until disillusionment kicks in and they start to try to recoup).
