they've probably visited the ground more times than Randy did just by turning up yesterday.

 I like how they’ve bought into the club in an understated way and not yet promised something they are not able to deliver.

I am a bit dubious of the owner who comes in and promises this that and how much he now loves the club in such s short time

What I really liked about them when we met was that they bought something off me didn't promise the earth and weren't going to run before they could walk. Lerner at first was the right man for his time, as Doug had been in 1968, but these two didn't feel that they had anything to prove, which I suppose is understandable when you're that rich.

Yes yes but they've been here more times than Randy.

The best thing they've done is employ Purslow and keep quiet. A proper administrator with experience not being undermined by a vocal owner is almost like they taken the mistakes made by the last 2 owners and been determined not to repeat them.

That was possibly Randy's biggest failing. He stayed in the background but didn't employ anyone decent to run it.

Out of his depth really. This became obvious when the money dried up.
