It was basically on what is the goal of our club and our supporters.
Do we want to be a Prem side or is the Championship our goal.
We believed with a Football Trust in control we can achieve Championship status. But to be settled in the Prem, the present Board would have to sell out a huge number of shares and even control. We could still have a Trust, but the big money (vultures was the teriminology we used) would control.
We generally felt that the Championship was our level, especially in the next few years. Though we can satisfactory be compared and are to the equal to the Bolton's, Wigan's, Blackburn's. We have to travel a long way at huge costs to catch up. And the last 7-10 years have lost a generation of young fans, who we must get back to support and WATCH our club.
