doug and bagpuss - in that order if i may.

doug, i am afraid stanley is not a business. It might well become one in due course, but for the past many years, and right now, its not. the biggest issue is that there is no budget for players. the main reason i keep banging on about a share issue is that it is the only way to ensure we have enough in the bank to give the manager some cash to buy players, and then, by being successful, attract crowds and sponsorship, to become bigger. i agree it SHOULD be a business, but right now, that is not the case. Of course, it can get more solvent, but it requires fresh and significant capital.

bagpuss - i have heard many things, and i would not be surprised to hear that mr whalley is still involved. however, right now, i dont care who is involved, i just want to avoid bankruptcy. I have, as you know, asked for transparency, and i do not know whaty oneil will not answer the simple question about the share transfer. You will recall in June he said that the transfer is "a matter of a few days". Well, we are still waiting. I am sure there is an answer, but i have not recieved one, neither has the club or the town.
