There's nuance with regards to priorities etc too.
Picking out exceptions doesn't make the general rule not true.
Yeah but underlying mindset is important.
Brighton and Brentford have achieved success, by their definition, without being driven by turnover.
There’s a deeper point here and EMs mindset, reflected in his approach to date.
But both have in recent times moved to new stadiums
By virtue of a continuous improvement through prudent investment and acquisition
Could be very wrong, but I think Brighton are going the way of Southampton. Treating everything completely as an exercise in business rather than sport. Sold too many of their best players. Manager going to leave. I don't think it'll prove sustainable.
They're also never going to win anything. Boring.
We’ll see but you can only really form an opinion on what has been, not what is yet to come.
