UEFA ambitions

Interesting to read how far Aidy thought he could get us. Kind of reminds me of Elton's comments to GT 30 years ago.

Interesting also that he's downgraded his expectations significantly. Is this because he knows that financially we are worse off than has been previously admitted? If we do ever get back up to the Prem has it already been decided we'll use the money to pay off any debt and fund the East Stand redevelopment rather than getting anyone in that might keep us up?

Its not like Aidy to be publicly pessimistic and I think more is being said in this article between the lines than actually in them.
