    To paraphrase our discussion at the game today: You can get some good stuff from Aldi, but I wouldn't try to do a full shop there.

    You’ll believe what you like. The club could have been sold in that time.

    I know of at least two different people, one on at least three occasions, contacting the club about investing and getting no response.

    Easy to assume that.

    Their wealth doesn’t come into it more that they will carry the can and pay the price for mistakes made stretching back almost two years.

    They aren't fools .They knew exactly what they were buying as the due diligence will have shown . We'll see soon enough about their investment intentions but I'm not holding my breath . We mean nothing to them .

    Maybe it would be better if they handed control back to James on relegation

    Agree. More Barnsley, right into non-league.

    How embarrassingly insular.

    You’re doing the same, just by accident of birth. Interesting that that same accident of birth can excuse anything but no slack can be cut for anyone outside that accident of birth.

    I’m not following my leader at all. Just asking for a new regime to be afforded at least the same amount of time to make their own mistakes

    They are foreign investors, money makers who have taken a punt on a small northern football club that have no debt because 'of the plan' that Patrick implemented,they wouldn't be here otherwise. You have to understand we are just a page in their portfolio.

    What was paid for the club would be less than small change to these guys. Will their patience stretch to a season (or more ) in League One? There has to be a question mark.

    You are making huge assumptions.

    Like I say, let’s hand it back to James and keep on with picking players his “algorithm” picks out.

    Someone somewhere else was talking about vanity projects. The Plan has that written all over it
