But it's not like he chooses to put money in. He's forced to because the Club will go bust otherwise. The same will be the case for the foreseeable future. I'd imagine that RonWorld will take a decade to complete fully which is a decade in which he'll be obliged to subsidise the Club somehow.

Why would he be obliged to?

On another note, what reason would RM apart from vanity wish to put money into the club once his goal is achieved of getting us out of RH ?

For as long as he's owner he won't have a choice. And if he sells the Club or gives it away then that seems to be what you want anyway.

Because the Club doesn't generate enough cash to cover it's bills and if he doesn't inject cash into it on a monthly basis it will get wound up.

Yep, but once his goal is achieved of getting us out of RH ..where is the incentive?

From the looks of things the whole development (the shops, the hotel, the flats, the casino) is going to take years to complete now that he wasn't able to get the cash together to do it in one go. He's going to have to keep the Council onside for, I'd guess, up to a decade. I don't think he can afford to let the football club go bust at the first possible moment.

Or he goes back to the council and tells them there is no money to build even a three sided stadium until the retail development is up and running and providing a revenue stream. So he forces the council to override the requirement to build a new ground before we vacate RH, keeping Sainsbury's happy (and the council quietly happy too in view of the increased revenue they will derive from the new developments).

We end up ground sharing with Dagenham and Redbridge - or if we have dropped into the Blue Square Thingy by then, Billericay Town.

RM then sells the development rights to the retail park to the highest bidder - gives Tara his £3m quid back - and sets sail for the British Virgin Islands.

Won't happen of course :unsure:
 
do you really think he cares about the football club

If he really cared about the football club, over the last 10 years or so, then has been several opportunities to prove it.. We are nothing more than the proverbial cash cow(or were) If he really cared about the club he would have sold up to the consortium, and disappeared to a country that doesnt have an extradition treaty!!! As I have mentioned before, we are left with nothing, a 3 sided ground possibly built or half built. and nothing no assetts nothing, and yet ppl on here are still happy.
some even seem to be happy with this level football, trying to say its pleasurable watching us play

god forbid

Yawn

If you and all the others that have seen fit not to turn up this season put half as much effort into getting behind the team you claim to support rather than your never ending rants at the running of the club , then maybe just maybe there might be more light at the end of a very dark tunnel.

For what its worth i hate Teffron as much as the next person , but not going to games just means i miss out on watching my team and no amount of hate for one man would stop me doing that.

We get it birdseye. You hate ron you hate the running of the club and you hate the current squad and hate the level of football we are playing at .

Im not particularly happy playing league 2 or the way the club is run , but things could be worse as stockport are proving. We have a decent manager and some good players in which to build on next season and i fully expect us to be much closer to the promotion race next term.

Get down the hall and support the team , but Ron aint going nowhere and your daily rants are not only pointless , but a little dull.


In short , wind you neck in and get back to doing what you do best and make some fish fingers

We should be happy with this level of football. We're a lower league club. Suggest you go and support Chelsea (assuming you haven't already)
