Well I certainly don't believe it's because the club is her 'plaything'

Ridiculous comment.

I think she believes that the majority of investment offers will ultimately damage, or at least negatively impact on, the stability of the club.

I think she has seen what has happened to any other number of similar sized and bigger clubs and is very worried that she does not want to be responsible for making decisions that ultimately threaten our future and existence.

It is a conservative view, it is one that will clearly draw criticism. But when I look around the game... it's not the worst and whether it is 'right' or not in absolute terms, there is clear logic to that thought process.
