So why does it feel underwhelming and like nothing has/will change... Talk about sneeking in the side door. 🦅

Do you trust these nuggets to spend it wisely?

Same coaches, same scouts, same people making the big decisions...

If it was a full takeover, I'd be more inclined to believe things will change for the better..

Its underwhelming imo..

"here's some loose change"...

Scouts, coaches, the academy, the stadium..

All the fans really care about is what's on the pitch. Not how clean the stadium looks

Still baffled because without a decent team capable of going places it's no good having the rest.
Maybe it's me but Donald seems happy with it.
