I just hope it is not the MAPP scenario all over again, we tee ourselves up in a great position for the playoffs etc only for the ownership to get cold feet over the thought of going up.
Some interesting criteria for Champ clubs... Especially if I'm reading right we need goal line tech installed. Looks to be around 250k a pop.

Personally as long as the status quo around the stadium ownership exists we will be sat just where we are in L1, I am all for sustainability and the model of balancing the books with a few player sales but the money grab on the last day of the transfer window says it all. Great I'm happy we can address the deficit and offset the losses for this season, yet did we need to snatch at the first offer? could we have waited to the close season? are not both players under contract for next season and in budget for this season.
Yes Fosu had a release clause met but where was the persuasion to hang on to the end of the season, maybe I'm looking at it to simplistically
Losing Cadden then Baptiste / Fosu has obviously upset the apple cart, it has irked KR and the fact we seem to be rushing Branners back in to try stem the tide of the downturn has back fired although he had a better game last night. We have a lot of fight but I see heads have dropped and minds elsewhere..
Still, I'm very happy the training ground has been sorted that's a great plus, we have again had a lovely cup run but it does have a feel of MAPPS last season.
I predict if the stadium ownership does not get resolved soon we will have another turnover of owners soon.
Let's face it the infamous first press conference of tigers! said it all.
