we're a sleeping giant, and I won't be told any differently.
This mentality will ultimately be the difference between the clubs who do break into the top and those who don't.
The fans have to believe it so they can give the players that little extra when it matters.

My analogy would be were a giant that has been on a very long diet and has lost a lot of weight...we now need some serious feeding up financially and some tlc...weve never slept have we? were always making too much noise one way or another for that

Re: New signings imminent : who's coming in folks?
Our profits were less than £1 mill three years running, and we only managed that through player sales, but some people on this board count that as financial stability.we8manu wrote:don't want to put a downer on things but I read an artical earlier this week that GHF Capital's profits last year were a mere £236.000 can't remember where I read it(read that many articals about the takeover in the last month my mind has melted)
I think there's a lot more going on behind the scenes than we know about.
Keep in mind that GFH are an investment bank. Their primary trade is investing and managing other people's money. It's entirely possible that they are investing other people's money in the club.

Which Bates AND the Trust have both alluded to...they are a front for a big hitter. Fingers X'd.markolufc wrote:

Ive got a sneaky suspision that we are gonna sign Mackail Smith in the January transfer window , I think he was gonna come but the Takeover money didn't come through ( that is only a gut feeling ) cause Warnock did state that he was one of his main targets.
