Just highlights the fact that the club has been run as a very expensive hobby by a guy who delegated the running of the club to a bunch of amateurs!
FFP without major ground investment to improve commercial revenues will leave us struggling for years.
Any new owners have got to get local Council's, businesses and fans on board to create the opportunity to allow the club to expand the stadium and develop further retail and leisure income streams in and around Trent Bridge and the City Ground.
We have all the city's major sports facilities within walking distance of one another which for a major city is unique. Yet little is done to promote "Sports Nottingham" and create a world class visitor destination for all sports to complement Trent Bridge Cricket Ground which is sold out barely 5 times a year but is the most financially profitable County Cricket club with a World Class ground!
Until Forest stops being run like a private members plaything nothing will change apart from our declining League position. The club needs investors with global sports/leisure promotion expertise to develop the Nottingham Sports brand and regenerate the area in partnership with the local Councils who need to release land and buildings to make it happen.
Six figure main sponsorship deals on a turnover of circa £16m just about sums up the ineptitude of the current management team over the Doughty era!
