Edgeley Park Expansion Plans on 17:00 - Sep 21 by kel | I had no idea Stewart Day was back in football. |
Don't think there can be too many comparisons drawn between Stott and Day, tbh. For starters, he wiped out the £7.7m debt the club 'owed him' for the takeover this summer (which was his plan all along). I don't think Day was ever going to be in a position to do that kind of thing. 20,000 may seem a lot, but their lowest crowd so far this season in the league was 7,800 and I think they may have even sold out their current 10,000 capacity for the Barrow game on the opening day of the season, so it's not that different to having a 10,000 capacity ground with average gates of less than 3,000 like us. As much as we may not like it, I think Stockport have lucked out with investment from a wealthy, genuine, local benefactor. |  |
