Let's not work with <snip> profit oriented sharks.
God forbid a business being profit oriented! What will they think of next?
Why is a club a business?
Why should a club have as its motive making money for external investors?
While we're on about loaded Irishmen, what about Michael O'Leary, boss of Ryanair? Oh, silly me .............. he would want paying to take it off SISU's hands
A club is only allowed to be a business as long as it's not ccfc....

So presumably you think CCFC is being run as a business? Well everyone to their own.
It is, just not a very successful one!
Well, not quite. My auditor friend's comment come accounts time is usually along the lines of 'fuck knows why your club hasn't been wound up, it's fucked'*
*(not the tone of advice he charges for)
Not a steward, and that's the last of your 20 questions.
All I would say is that it comes from a credible source, such that I believe it true.

Agreed. Football seems to be the only business in the world where you're continually making losses and raking up debt, and everything's smiles and nods and encourages them to spend a bit more. Bonkers.
Or run that business down to virtually nothing,with very little future and then expect to get more for it than you've put in. Bonkers.

Because there would only be donors...not investors. That's what investors do - invest to hopefully get a handsome return on teir investment.Why is a club a business?

Yes bonkers.
On a side note Leyton Orient have failed to pay their players this month. Isn't their owner supposed to be worth around £500m?

No fan wants to feel they're just customers to be commoditised and talked down to. No fan wants their team to drop like a stone because of lack of funding.
No one said we were a logical and realistic bunch.
That doesn't really answer the question. However, on the subject of what investors do.
- In which case, be content with interest being charged on loans from our present lot.
- In which case, be content with decisions being made for financial profit and short term gain rather than long term stability, and a sense of belonging.
- In which case, accept the club is a business and we have no right to have a say about anything, all we should do is transfer our support to Aston Villa.
- In which case, accept the City of Coventry not having a league club as the failing business is wound up...
As that's what investors do.
Careful, You;ll be branded a FAN.
Heard that yesterday. Didn't they only take over near the end of last season? And like you say, meant to be worth a bit. Don't get that at all? Are they bored of it already?

just what's been encouraged by speculative shareholders.
Not just in their industry. Take a look at the likes of IBM, who slash their staff costs because they only make a few $billion profit.
Or Tesco's selling off their assets for that matter.
Short term demand for dividends from, yes, the investors, wins out over long term business sense.
Not entirely sure Walmart are a company to aspire to!
In terms of stock market performance
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NO_fx1WshCAAnd that's entirely the wrong measurement for a football club. It's the lack of ethics that helps that. Dance with the devil however... It would be so much better for our club if we could move away from talk of investment/investors, and returns. As long as they're the rules of discourse... then SISU have won.
I was told by someone in the club that he was offered Director of Football so they didn't have to pay him off but obviously Pressley declined.
