Burton Albion o/t

[Redalert1970]

Since new owners have taken over at the Pirelli they have signed players for fun

Today they have signed Daniel Orsi from Crawley (25 goals last season)

Shows what could maybe happen if we eventually get a new owner

[KenH]

Only if the new owners actually have money to burn and just want the club as a play thing.

I'd rather have sensible owners who either themselves or appoint business growth orientated directors to help develop and invest in the club to make it properly self supporting and sustainable, i.e. develop alternative income streams to cover overheads (particularly far more use of the land, buildings, suites, bar, etc.). Just like we've been promised for the last 15 years but which never actually happens! We need people with new ideas, vision, etc., not just people who'll throw a few million in and then lose interest!

A rich owner may be good in the short term, but once they lose interest, we'd be in a worse position of having high costs, insufficient income, etc.
