Agreed he has invested.. but has he invested into the playing side (that clearly Derek wants investment in to help us achieve a promotion push) or will he in the future?

Ash Smith-Brown certainly was a bargain buy according to this.

Clean sheet? Start again?
New owner having studied what the refurbished grandstand will achieve for Argyle thinks mmmmmmmmmm not really good enough. Shall we recalculate see if it is viable to complete the Grandstand anew as in Grandstand two tiers, filled in corners, matching the original plans of 2001
Wishful thinking? pie in the sky? Hopefully being considered, otherwise, not much of a new era is it?
Here's hoping for a big new fresh impetus building on what looks like solid foundations.
Onwards and upwards.

The refurb isn't about seat capacity at this time, it's about what is behind and below the stand and what additional income that will bring. Empty seats wouldn't help the club move forward at this time.

Let's just concentrate on getting the team up to the Championship.
Otherwise we will never need to improve the infrastructure at all, and it will be a total waste of time and money if we do.
When we get to the Championship there will be every opportunity to increase funds through increased sponsorship, money from tv deals, etc.
Let the team prosper with money accrued because of the success of the team (eg increased gate income, possible transfer fees, etc)
