Re: Rumor a takeover


A couple of seasons of mid table stability would help, build the club up then push on.

Re: Rumor a takeover


I completely agree with Statto. No need to turn everything upside down.

Regarding Jed, I wouldn't say it was negative rumour as much as negative track record, and perhaps a smidgen of discomfort when dealing with people asking unexpected questions (as well as an annoying habit of taking personal credit for just about anything and everything). The main difference between his position here and places he's been it the past, is that here he's not calling all the shots.

His legendary 'contacts' worked out well with the loan players brought in during 2017, and he seems to have been instrumental in getting the ground up to scratch. If it turns out he's had a hand in bringing more resourceful ownership to the club, that'd probably be a positive and deserving of credit.

Re: Rumor a takeover


Agree Statto. Haven't yet checked my lottery ticket but I would go with your idea. Money unlimited I would move the ground further down toward Solihull(lugtout lane junction) and sell off to JLR for enough to help build said stadium
It would be a nice ground with a business to help sustain the club and would need to build upon the footballl base of Solihull before a move forward.
Attendances would need to be 1500 on average before we moved toward a full time football league chasing club. But always with an eye on a constant self sustaining club with community roots to support a NLN/L2/top NLN club no matter what.

Re: Rumor a takeover


Well done again Statto - voice of reason.

Its not lacking ambition when you don't bet your shirt on longshot. Survival last year was a first-rate achievement, however it was attained. The club is punching well above its weight at the moment - the downside being its a shop window for the players. Still, that's football...

Things like this always take time, months, if it's even happening.

Have you got no ambition what is the point of following a club if you don't want them to progress ffs.

Bit harsh on Statto that.
Steady progress can be achieved but a quick flash of success might not be sustainable.

Re: Rumor a takeover


Its not being harsh. Im just stating why follow a club if you want them to stay at a low level. Me personnaly wouldn't mind getting promoted to league football even if it meant going back down again. Becoming a yoyo club will lead to stability look at the baggies.
