So if this is being done as a "debt manaegment" exercise, you have to wonder if the new owners are backing it. It should be worth wondering if their first objective will be to bring operating costs down and narrow the deficit gap.
If so, things might get worse.
I don’t see anyone coming in and risking relegation to L2. At worst the immediate objective would be to stabilise the situation, make a credible season ticket offer for next season and install competent management (of the business).
If you came in and weakened the squad (see also 2014) significantly, you’d lose the fans very quickly and handicap yourself going forward.
So why sell Holmes as ‘debt management’ ? If that’s their idea then it ain’t going to get the fans onside. It also sounds like they’re coming in to run a tight ship not throw money around and get us out of this league.
It’s Roland’s debt management, not the new owners’.
