Oh dear, I think many of we oldies have been here many times before.....this is Sufc we love and support, it will not change. Accept it and move on. Cobb.

Blame flying about everywhere, lest we not forget, if the players were good enough nothing else would matter. The players aren't meeting the challenge at the moment and whilst I acknowledge some of this blame is at the manager's door, the players need to take some of the blame here.

Very true !

My pre season prediction of an 11th place finish this season is looking good at present.:nope:

Do you really think RM hasn't put any money into the club? Oh dear.

Of course he has. It's just not his money

Erm, Try and asking a certain Supermarket Chain if Much of the money was Ron's

So when did Ron take over and when did Sainsbury's get involved? Where did the money come from until then?

Westy has answered that question in a quick nutshell.

 

[Jam_Man]

Ron's firms did support the club initially and did so obviously with profit to be made from the development.

The problem is they ran into trouble during the recession and since then have been unable to do so, hence we built up large debts via Sainsbury.

I'd say its been at least 5 years since 'Ron's money' has been keeping us going.

Its worth bearing in mind though that if there is profit made from the stadium and if its used to clear the debts then that could certainly be classed as his. That's a time will tell situation though.

Come on people! Blame game belongs to politicians.
Ron isn't perfect but he isn't a Reynolds or Anton Johnson either.
Personally I think we are lucky to still be a going concern as SUFC; and, as I haven't got 2pence to rub, together I am not in much of a position to gamble with other people's money.
