Inward Investment

Seen the comments re the AGM below and the mention of investment. Not sure if this Board is that open to offers of investment from an outside party.

Obviously, you have to establish what might be motivating this but we never seem to have anyone like Mandaric interested in putting money into the club.

If you were an individual looking to invest significant sums you would at least need some representation on the Board to ensure your interests were being looked after.

All hypothetical of course but I wonder what kind of response someone would get if they contacted the club with a genuine offer of investment. There was that Davey guy a few years ago but he wasn't really looking at putting any money into the club, just buying a controlling interest. He seemed to disappear off the face of the earth after that.
