Woooah there, im only asking.

The guys clearly a mad keen Stanley fan, im just saying.

As an outsider I just get the impression that Stanley is run 'on the cheap' at the moment, a bit tin pot if you will.

They have the begging bowls out at every turn be it for a roof or seemingly just a bit of advertising of match ticket offers "helped by our main partner oswadtwistle mills".

Surely a man with that kind of wealth and some serious ambition could only be good for the club??

Football is a business nowadays, there is no room for sentiment.

Bill Kenwright is a great Evertonian but he is not a great chairman for the simple reason that he lets his own love of the club get in the way of commercial progress. IMO thats not healthy.
