You always come up with this quote...

Honestly I'm sure you've got it on some kind of hotkey. But I really don't see the objection, I'd rather support a club that played fair, that looked after its supporters and provided a valuable resource to the whole community, than one like Leeds who survive on unrealistic ambitions and pay a far greater price.

If you asked me whether I'd prefer my club to be run on a long-term basis for the benefit of the community, or gamble everything on success and potentially get into very, very serious trouble, I'd choose the first option every time.
