    With these flybys, protests etc. being planned now just wondering if anyone heard the Talksport interview with the Charlton owner - he got annoyed with the negativity displayed by the fans (albeit I think it was more widespread support than our predicament has)

    Be interesting to see what he said as I imagine given where we appear to be heading as a club we'll be in a very similar situation soon.....

    We need to look at like-for-like not mis-comparisons. The Charlton owner can do what he likes and ignore all the protests he wants to, after all, he's worth nearly half a billion. They are losing him £10m per annum and he has huge problems..... here is what he recently said.

    "“My conclusion is that the recipes from the business world are totally unsuccessful in football. Investing in football was a mistake. The football business doesn’t suit me. Too irrational. If you want to lose real money, buy a football club."

    The Blackpool owners starting off very rich and getting even richer via the PL may well find themselves bankrupt. It's chuck a load of money at it or slow incremental growth with, hopefully, big luck.

    Edin had neither advantage.
