Why would people like that (all have proven track records in their respective fields) buy a club and then not put money in?
I think some people, myself included, have been a bit harsh on Ted over the years in some respects. Putting money in being a principle one. If Ted had the money I'm sure he would have invested it, he loves WT as much as any on here. But the truth is he doesn't have the money, and has been in financial decline for some time. Yet he still put in what he could and made the best of the situation- from his point of view. Whether or not it was right for the club and should he have stepped aside earlier are separate issues.
I honestly believe Ted did what he thought was best for the club and has endangered his own financial health in process.
However Ted is almost history, I have no doubt the new boss/bosses will want success and that will require funding.
As if anyone would buy the club to sit on it as it is. In decline and shaken at best. What sort of an investment would that be. That approach doesn't sit with any of the mentioned businessmen.
