Talk of £100k for Gus. So £50k of that to pay back the loan from GI?

Out of interest - what do you reckon it would cost to 'buy' the club? and did the current Chairman and Directors pay anything or did they just take ownership of a loss making business? who would you 'pay' to buy it?

The question is not how much will the club cost to buy but how much investment is needed to keep the club going or even to progress.
I would guess (and this is a wild stab in ther dark!) that £100k would buy the club and keep it afloat for twelve months, after that it really depends how good you are at running a football club. £1m would buy the club and keep it going for a couple of years. £10m and wou would have the room to invest off the field and secure the future of the club as a fully professional entity for many years to come.

(All guess work!)
