New Stadium or New Owner

michfangoblue3 · February 9, 2012

Given the choice between the two, would you rather keep Kenwrong but get the new stadium or have him finally sell the team to a worthy owner?

If the new owner is rich and/if he does build a new stadium in the next ten years

I know this is hypothetical, but one couldn't happen without the other. We'd need a new owner to build a new stadium, and we need a new stadium to attract a potential owner. Which is why we're in trouble.

Sad truth.

Deffo new owners. Hopefully new owners would invest in quality players, this in yurn may bring success which then reaps it's own rewards with champions league money etc coming in, in time there may be sufficient funds to then build a new stadium....... I don't see the point in having a brand new stadium and no money to improve the team, slowly we would decline and relegation would surely follow then we would be in an almost empty brand new stadium watching a piss poor team.

I don't think they are mutually exclusive. We have to address the ground situation one way or the other no matter who is in charge and if building a new ground is putting potential investors/buyers off then they aren't in it for the long term anyway, speculate to accumulate and all that. I think they are intertwined with each other the ground and ownership unfortunately.

I think it's gotta be new owners. Goodison may be goin to sh*** but it's got character. We need the new owner to improve the club as a whole. A little money into the park just for upkeep and new squad/business ideas would help immensely.

Where's the "Manager who can get internationals playing like internationals" option?

To be fair he currently can't get ANY one to play. Except Neville, who he'll let run around til his leg falls off.

Chicken, because you can have eggs as well then?

Am I in the wrong board?

New stadium every time. I can't be doing with all these Uncle Bill Bashers. The guy is clearly passionate about the club. What are the chances of us getting a new owner who is interested in anything other than trying to make a profit on their investment and then walking away.
