    Coming back to this, Only gotta look at forest green owner who is worth similar to Rupp I believe. Coasting league two and planning to build a whole complex near the stadium in the coming years. Oh to have a man with a vision

    Because he thought he could make money by picking up players and selling them on. It hasn’t worked and like lots of owners would like to get out.
    There are other motives for owning football clubs like prestige and chances to promote other business. But now sound finance (Sustainability Deficit) have become dirty words with fans but unless a buyer is willing to part with large sums of money with little hope of return it is the only sensible way to go

    Both regular opponents in the past, who have fallen out of the football league and still yet to climb back , like notts county , wrexham, barnet , torquay , yeovil, southend could yet go the other way.
    We are now where we were then, been all the way to the top and back. What a ride.

    So why isn't he seeking a buyer or 'actively looking to sell' ?

    So the plan is to...buy a club and keep it as a possession whilst it tumbles down the leagues :thumbup:

    Because he thinks he can improve things and then get a little more of his money back I suspect

    And how longs he been trying that? Why not stick the money he'd want to make back on to the price tag and promote the fact he's wanting to sell the club

    Possibility of further signings according to Adams
    Adams says there is a possibility there could be further activity this window.

    “We don’t have to be finished at this moment in time. We’re still looking. We have ideas where we want to go, we’ve already identified (targets).”

    Because Edin Rahic sold him the dream and it nearly came off in their first season of owning our club but that was more down to Stuart McCall rather than either owners.

    Or he's forgotten he even owns a football club and wonders who this Ryan is who keeps ringing him.
