Any investor could have done that

And he got a very sweet deal out of his investment too, so let's see hiw much he's actually saved us when all of that is realised or not.

What I mean is more nuanced - he was heralded as bringing in all this expertise from his other clubs, was going to help transform the club etc. Would we even notice he was gone?

I'm not sure 'saved us a bit of interest' is much of a USP. 🤷‍♂️
