Another example of a wealthy but true fan who has poured a small fortune into a club and failed. Doesnt guarantee success does it?

Not researched it Ian. but was he Chairman when they went back up into the football league ?.......you could argue it is limited success, albeit they are traditionally a league club and once beat Manchester United in the league cup

Of course since then the wheels have come off and they find themselves playing at Step 2

Yes Jason McGill has been there many years, met him twice, really nice guy whose heart is very much in the club, such a pity as he deserved success, just shows how hard it is even with money.
