If SISU WANT MONEY (1 Viewer)

IF sisu want money then they should spend money to get us promoted,as if they sell players they get about 5-8 mil for the whole team give or take but if we get promoted they get a 80mil cash windfall it's an easy choice! or are sisu just intent on destroying the club?

Mmmm, thats radical,never thought of that. somebody should tell ken.

so simple isnt it and guaranteed too :facepalm:
wouldnt disagree that some structured investment in the team is necessary but dont assume that by doing so the Premiership is there for the taking - ask Cardiff if spending money guarantees success. it only gives you the possibility...... whereas no spending and cutting too many players gives you the probability of relegation

You mention Cardiff and you have a point seeing they have failed 3 times recently in the play-offs but they are on just about their third group of players in the last 5 years, selling here, buying there and are top 3 again, supposed to be in dire straights yet always at the right end of the division ?

Without looking at their finances I cant tell you how they do it ........... sooner or later though if it is borrowed money it catches up with you.

But it is no good getting the likes of Cody Mcdonald is it ..... to have hope of being higher up the table we would need to spend 3 to 5 million to bring players in who would have annual salary of say £600K each. So that package could mean a cost in the first year of £6m and still guarantees nothing. We have spent in the past in this division like that and still not been in the playoffs. It does guarantee an increase in losses unless we get better crowds (minimum of 7000 better on average), that and a team gelling to get success is going to take longer planning. Would, like you, love to see it - but we could still be at the lower end of the league - nothing is guaranteed.

In the context of our club and the assets we have to borrow money against to buy the players then that is actually spend spend spend. Not seen anything from SISU or Hoffman that says that is what will happen - think to get sustained success we have to think cleverer than just throw money at it
