Chairman of Accrington Stanley, best club in 92. Great asset for Hyndburn, generating much needed footfall and social goodness. Football vital for community.

I wish I could agree but I can’t.

Rank bad management by me caused our fall from L1.

I allowed poor recruitment, bad practices and a lack of discipline to go on far too long.

I listened to emotion of supporters and it was a mistake.

You live and you learn.

Football… …ownership is a difficult job to try to get right.

Look @BurnleyOfficial and @IpswichTown with rumours circling their managers.

The owner is behind the scenes taking all the hits, funding any success. As soon as there is any success, other clubs want to take your players…

You know, and I’m not having a go at @SalfordCityFC

They state their ambition as getting to @SkyBetChamp for which they need a new partner.

They’re not alone.

A good number of owners have the exact same ambition.

The question is WHY??

The Championship is a zombie league. It’s full of clubs trapped between the ex @premierleague parachute clubs and a big loss if relegated.

Big clubs have fallen victim to this trap…

@SunderlandAFC @OfficialBWFC @dcfcofficial @LaticsOfficial @Rovers @swfc to name but a few.

All ending up playing @ASFCofficial

Reyt.

Season ticket prices are going up as we re stabilise the club following disastrous relegation from @SkyBetLeagueOne

Relegation that was deserved.

The increases to season ticket prices will

Generate an extra £34k

Remember we’re in a million pound hole. Matchday ticketing will also increase bringing in a further £145k

Beers and concessions increases for all events, not just matchday will bring in £70k

We will be looking for a commercial manager/director challlenged with increasing other income like sponsorship, advertising..

So…

We talked last week about the permanent and non-permanent @premierleague clubs.

The next thing to understands is the financial disaster, that the prem tries to paper over with parachute payments.

The 14 non permanent prem club share

£1.8 BILLION each year… The 14 clubs in @EFL that have spent the corresponding 13 years each in the prem share…

£90 million.

£1,800,000,000
£90,000,000

THIS IS UNREAL.

On top of this absolutely crazy state of affairs, if you buy a @SkyBetChamp club in the hope of replacing one of the LUCKY clubs
