Looking for someone to finance a new stadium is fine, but seems speculative at best right now. It's hard to imagine any serious investors really gushing about such an opportunity at the moment.

In terms of cutting costs: in my opinion there was a lot of room for savings when it came to the Dan Ashworth hiring and firing. Additionally the way the decision makes at the club wasted millions on renewing Ten Hag's contract and then firing him soon after also seems imprudent. Apparently it's easier to fire the proverbial tea lady instead of making some more sound long term decisions by the management.

I mean, the club has been losing in excess of a 100 million per year, even if Ashworth and Ten Hag weren't fired that wouldn't have changed anything, not to mention the cash SJR injected more than covers it, they paid for their fuckups.

Also sticking with Ashworth when they decided it's not the right fit would have been pretty bad long term management.

i really don't count these points as valid complaints, no offense
