It's all good and well when the parent club seem interested like they currently do at Heart but what happens in a few years time when the initial enthusiasm wanes from the owner and all he sees is money being pissed into a black hole???


I will say it again. The only way forward is to diversify ownership to a group of 4-5 OWNERS where the debts incurred running football clubs are spread about between 4-5 parties and not lumped on one rich bloke who will eventually ask WTF as he continues to piss money into a black hole of debt.

Exact same predicament with Con Tinks etc. The rest of it is just window dressing.

One Rich Bloke owning the club is ALWAYS doomed to inevitable failure
Financial fair play is the difference between now and the northern spirit/rangers debacle.
