Hey, pipes . Here you go bud'. 6 out of 10 think years of underinvestment the main cause of our current plight.
Finger on the pulse, matey
I think there’s a bigger picture. ENIC have heavily invested in the infrastructure of the club, such as the stadium, training ground, and global advertising. Stuff that has meaningful long-term value for an investments company. Those are the intangibles.
Investing in the team is the tangible. Half the battle is appealing to the desired player. If they show a willingness to sign then ideally there should be some give and take and we do what we can to bring them in. We seem to have missed out on a few players through excessive brinkmanship. It’s the same when trying to sell players. Football transfers don’t operate like a normal market, and I’ve never thought Levy ever really grasped that.
He’ll need to soon, because the stadium will become a white elephant if it doesn’t have a competitive team playing inside it.
