I applaud the ambition and I don't doubt it. I don't think Kevin buys any company to see it just amble along. He has been frustrated at the system in the States which, as far as I can see, prevents Sacramento getting into the MSL. Although we don't have a level playing field in England, with the right funding, shrewd investment in players, dogged determination and a large slice of luck you can reach the promised land. Though for someone from California he maybe ought to take heed of The Eagles warnings about calling some place paradise. I think, after a staggered start, he is starting to put things in place to turn the club around. All the invisible stuff in the background that was mentioned is good but it's about getting the right players and manager. I think we have the manager now but a lot will depend on who we can attract. The idea of 'Championship ready players' I think is related to the previous regimes strategy of getting lower league 'ones for the future' and bringing them on. The players we get may not really be Championship ready but they will be good players at our current level with the ability, hopefully, to step up, or players who have already had some time in the Championship. I really hope this is the best window we have had since Wagner. If we avoid any Ex-Town or injury prone players it would not difficult to be the best window we have had since Wagner! Jan 2020 and summer 2021 were decent. Other than that though, we have had some stinkers.

Got himself a move to Pompey in the Championship... Genuinely very surprised at that, I would have thought L1 is his level.
