    When did our revenue streams ever match expenditure under Flavio?

    How did Flavio ever expect revenue streams to exceed expenditure while we remained in the CCC?

    I'm beginning to think if Flav made money in business, the rest of us must have been selling ourselves seriously short. He hasn't got a clue.

        The answer might vary depending on whether you are talking about the Mittals or Amit Bhatia.

            Don't forget we overpaid for certain players and also we bought in the wrong players as well such as: borrowdale,hall,ramage,agyemang,pellicori etc... so thats probably peeed him off as well...

            Not including the crazy length in some of the contracts...

            Whoever advised him on these players ill advised him.

                  If we were talking Amit, I believe (and it's only an impression, no ITK bull or anything like it) he'd be interested in taking the club forward if he had the chance. Whether he'd have the financial backing to do so might be an issue.

                    TBH I don't really care about the financial backing in terms of is he a Billionaire etc (OK having some money is obviously important to buy the club and finance some transfers each year) but I believe he would run the club in the right way, and and the way the fans want it to be run.

                      To get this club run correctly and professionally would cost plenty, and the need for financial backing shouldn't be overlooked. Look at Burnley. Hit the jackpot with Owen Coyle, got promotion, but couldn't hold onto him because they had none of the sort of infratructure (training facilities, academy etc) that Bolton offered. Now they have taken a dreadful step backwards appointing Brian Laws. Relegation awaits, and probable regression into anonymity in CCC.

                      Amit is not personally wealthy, but he might have access to financial backing and support from the Mittals or other wealthy backers.

                        Well if the board want us to only spend what's coming in then we may as well start getting used to League One football because that's about the standard this club can self support. Please tell me what's the difference to us whether we are owned by billionaires on a man who owns a hot dog stand, as we are only gonna spend what comes in.

                            so saturdays revenue consists of bout 8k (being generous ) fans (have to take away the season tickets holders though cos they had the money for them up front) and whatever food they sell (not much i should think due to the shocking quality of it) and programs and corporate stuff (which hardly ever looks any where near full). Doesnt look like its gonna be much then does it when you compare it to the amount they have to spend on wages alone without all the other matchday costs.
                            These people are businessmen so what part of their plan went wrong? Did they imagine the stadium to be full every home game? as a businessman myself i cannot fathom their motives unless the ultimate goal for them is not promotion to the prem but they have some other ulterior motive.

                              maybe someone should tell flavio you get £60million for gaining promotion via the play offs.

                                Lack of ambition, Pete, lack of ambition. If we had ambition, I doubt we'd all feel so despondant.
