Seems like the obvious truth bears repeating.

They only need to fund us so much, because of their own mistakes.

Assuming it was a mistake of course.

That doesn't answer my question. Majority fan ownership starting now would begin from a position of the club having annual operating losses running in to several millions - as is the case for almost all Championship clubs without parachute payments - plus facing the regular demands to "show some ambition" by embarking on a transfer spree with no guarantee that it would lead to promotion. Where does the money come from ?

Of course a fan owned club can’t work at this level.

It has to be the ‘benefactor’ model, obviously we don’t have that here either as the Rao’s can’t/won’t fund the club they inexplicably still own.

Selling all our best players, typically.

Oh wait, no it doesn't, they don't re-invest that.....
