wolves were available and have potential - i could see why he would see them as a second best option ...... they have a decent stadium, fairly large fanbase etc plus it is not too far from his home to travel to

i don't believe it is an ego thing with him - other than an ego thing in wanting to win, which isn't such a bad thing - he is really passionate about footie is all and wanted to indulge his passion ...... my uncle has done a similar thing (though to a much smaller extent) by becoming chairman of his local non-league side

we wouldn't be in the same position at all - the debt wouldn't be there and the income would have been improved by changes in the merchandising etc (like h&g morgan knew that side of things was lagging miles behind the rest of the big four) ..... so with no debt and increased income comes greater spending power

we would have been better off in purely monetary terms

i never said we would spend more on players - i said in purely monetary terms we would be better off - totally different thing altogether

as for wolves they are in the prem, that is an improvement over the mid-table championship team he bought

TREPIE do you work for morgan.lol.
You seem quite a clever guy so dont take this the wrong way.
I dont agree, wolves were in a strong position for league they were in, they had not been relegated long. You can't protect your point of view by saying "monetary". We would not have players like Torres, Mash and Johnson in that case because your saying we would'nt have debt if he was here.Every team as debt its just the way it is now. so who were we going to buy Emps dream striker, Doyle is it. Please with out top players we would be even worse off. as for the stadium IMO if the yanks would have taken over in 2004 it would be up now.

not looking for a argument just my view.


don't be a hater. take the banter

yes he did andy ..... and no i don't work for morgan and never have lol

but he would have set us on an even financial keel - we might not have bought players like torres, mash or johnson but who is to know whether the players we did buy might have done the business ..... and perhaps those players would have made a few more appearances a season than torres and johnson are managing

i am not saying morgan was the answer at all - i am saying he was a better option than h&g .... i do think he would have got the stadium started, whereas i don't know if we will ever get to see a new stadium under the americans
