In all seriousness though the board should have been looking for investments when they knew in 2013 that Sainsburys wanted to walk away, they didn't need to tell us fans, they could have kept the pretence going with "their partners" and with Sainsburys knowledge, they could have been holding talks with all sorts of different investors, Bournemouth have got them, Northampton are going to have, Bristol is surely worthy, with the catchment area, motorway links, of someone with serious money to invest??? (Before any wags say it, Steve Lansdown is doing it at City so not him!!)

22m GTFC Stadium: Investors who plug funding hole must 'invest with heart, not head'By Grimsby Telegraph | Posted: March 26, 2015 GRIMSBY Town has launched a search for investors to plug a funding hole in the club's £22-million stadium dream. The club said it needed "somebody who will invest with a heart, not a head", but insisted they would see a return on their money. And the club added that there was still a key role for supporters to play in the plan to relocate from their Blundell Park home to land off Peaks Parkway. Club director Stephen Marley will head up a working group to attract investment and will report back in three months. Read more: www.grimsbytelegraph.co.uk/22m-GTFC-Stadium-Investors-plug-funding-hole/story-26232084-detail/story.htmlWe seem to have taken a huge step backwards thanks to Sainsbury's - we will soon be on a par with Grimsby with a "begging bowl" approach. However, at least they have a Director who is actively seeking investment. Has our BOD even approached South Gloucestershire Council's Economic Development Team with a view to actively seeking investment for the UWE Stadium via a joint initiative with the Council.

To be fair to NH he did get ridiculed when he did an article in the Bahrain newspaper. We also know he's met Chris Smallman.
