Having the right Owner

[BensGrandad]

Tony Bloom stepped up to the plate to provide the funds to build the stadium in the aftermath of the global financial crisis when the banks were clearly in no mood or position to loan any money to anyone at all. For which we, as supporters, should be eternally grateful.

Dick Knight and Martin Perry did every single one of the hard thankless miles to get us to the point where stadium planning position was granted. For which we, as supporters, should be eternally grateful.

The Albion fans absolutely REFUSED to let the club die. For which the above-mentioned, as chairmen/owners, should be eternally grateful.

I think TB knew what he was doing and was prepared to stand back and let them get on with it doing the donkey work knowing what he was going to do as he knew we wouldnt be able to raise the money.

Effectively, every single thing, good and bad, in the history of this club has brought us to where we are now.
