I know there are those who wouldnât agree with you but honestly I canât really see the club ever really being in a strong position until they have our own ground,not that itâll ever happen of course,just seems dead money renting the ground and if we are being frank treated shabbily by the landlords at times tooFirestarter wrote:It will only improve once we get our own stadium

Well that's not what he said, is it? Obviously if you have your own stadium, you have to try to maximise the income you can get from it, all the year round, as Saints try to do.jao 711 wrote:.

Have they taken on Latics debt as part of that deal? I know from memory they was in quite a poor state around three years ago. I imagine the stadium is worth more than 22 million and a championship club will need to turn over around 20million just to cover wages. So it's big money. I would love us to develop our own ground but unless I win a few 100 million on the lottery cant see it :doz:fozzieskem wrote:I know there are those who wouldnât agree with you but honestly I canât really see the club ever really being in a strong position until they have our own ground,not that itâll ever happen of course,just seems dead money renting the ground and if we are being frank treated shabbily by the landlords at times tooFirestarter wrote:It will only improve once we get our own stadium
Plus on a side note at 22 mill the new owners have gotten a bargain surely?
