In the Morgan Fever  podcast he mentioned something along the lines that when they(Wellnix) took over  they were hoping to sort out the paper work but found that there was no paper work to sort out (must have been a bit like being the first liberators going into Gadafi or Sadams palace )
They have a five year plan which initally is about building a sound foundation and  structure within the business side of the club  ,for the fans there is not a lot to see during this part of the plan it's dull suit  stuff and  not very  sexy , the more impotent supporters amongst us who expect/demand  that we not  only win the A league this year but also sign Messi and appoint the Chosen one as manager are already jumping up and down like spoilt toddlers screaming for another ice cream!
The first fruits from the new owners will not really be seen until the season after next in my opinion but hopefully the the first  really positive signs will start  next season.
 As that  great icon of  NZ feminism once said "It won't happen over night but it will happen "
