I think I recall Derek saying that if he decides not to continue to financially back the club then he'll return it to a part time club like before his recent investment.

I suppose it's the best opportunity we've had for a while to continue to raise the bar for the club - more season ticket holders, more shirt sales, more lctv subscribers etc. Therefore the club itself will hopefully get to a stage where it either doesn't need investment (possibly on a squad budget, at a guess, of 650k) or doesn't need too much investment. It's in everyone's interest to now make the club the strongest that it can be. The last thing we want is to allow an individual to finance the club and then for the to hit the fan if that finance stops.

The chicken and egg scenario has been discussed many times before - more fans get better players or get better players and hope the fans will follow. Now we've got the facility and the players and we all need to do our bit, no matter how small that is.

I've also bought a season ticket although it would be cheaper for me to pay per game due to work commitments. I'll also see if I can afford to sign up for Lisa.

True, fair play to all of the board and everyone else who has helped to grow the club over the last few years.

BeLeighve!

you dont have to join LISA to give funds to the club there are other ways.try joining the Lottery giving funds to the club plus the chance to win something back. How about buying christmas draw tickets (great prizes). Have you bought tickets for the Q & A for tuesday night. Any function run by any department of our great club should be supported. LISA run coaches to all away games why not use them? there are numerous ways of raising your donations to the club. Half time draw tickets can reward your efforts. The list of ways just keeps growing. A great Match Day programme coukd be better supported. Nuff said

That's a relief. Thank goodness we won't have to go through the stress (or disappointment) of the Qualifiers again, this coming season! icon_wink.gif
