    ...............and quick !!!

    PC did a good job to get us into the Championship but after that, season after season there has been less money going into the club.
    This has resulted in a large percentage of the fans giving up on the club.

    We now have the best mangement team at the club in living memory........at a time when there's no money being put into the club.
    We are desperate for a new owner who is able to back Keith Hill so he is able to compete for the signing of JUST SOME of the players in this league.
    Were would we be if Keith had anything like the £1.2 Million that Simon Davey had to spend on players like Hume.

    If Hill takes us to the FA Cup Semi Final

    he might get £1.2 million to spend on a proven striker.

    Spot on Nudge. I'd love to see Hill have a budget comparable with Davey and Robins had. People would see just how good he is if he was actually on a level playing field with other managers.

    Well when you get us on a great cup run that gets us to an FA Cup semi final at Wembley you generate more cash for yourself to spend on the team.

    SAME AS ROBINS!!

    Only difference is the willingness/capacity of teh owner to fund extras like GOC.

    I like our current management team, but the best in living memory? How old are you, 15? :)

    No, but I didn't post that. YN did. And he's bonkers. Just like all managers since Wilson they have had the POTENTIAL to be better than Wilson (being more than fair in many cases) but not one has achieved anything like he did.

    So, you'd like to put the club's future in jeapordy just to see whether Hill is better than Davey / Robins?

    A bit more precision on the exact amount might bring ABSOLUTE or FACT into play there SM.

    Ive slept since I was told the details but the absolute factual truth is the additional TV revenue, the gate receipts and merchandising meant the cup run brought in over a million pounds, straight from someone who would know. Not to mention the players who were later sold for good money. Howard + JCR = Hume, or thereabouts.

    If Hill could get us through a few rounds of the cup, the purse strings might not be so tight.

    Wouldn`t have a clue, however, hearsay relies on truth.

    In your opinion not mine. That depends on your age though.I am 41 and Hill and Flitcroft are not the greatest BFC management team in my living memory.
