There was a brief shower but, if I recall the rain had stopped before his first ride. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It boils down as to whether the club sees it an investment to make. Obviously, if anyone is going to be out of pocket it's going to be the club. But then as the old tale goes you've got to spend money to make money. Look at Ipswich for example, Jason and Emil. Just them 2 for example certainly draws in bigger crowds and that buy in allows the club to further invest and the circle keeps going round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Douglas1979 3 Posted May 2, 2023 The whole place seams flat at the moment. Perhaps a big sponsor is what's needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However, it's not like Alex Brady hasn't put in a sizeable investment into the club and I'm sure these MacInnes boys have thrown some money into the coffers too. It's just that the money has been directed in the wrong place. If this is the standard we now have to become accustomed too, then the Premiership isn't the league for us. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
