There’s plenty of buzz about the club at the moment after we saw new investment come in and confirmed earlier today.
The 49ers enterprise certainly look eager to bring extra investment to our club and, for me, they are more than welcome to do that.
Indeed, their minority stake in the club should allow us to sign better players in the summer window – in theory – and now it remains to be seen who we can actually bring in.
With that in mind, then, let’s take a look at how our fans reacted to the news:

The Verdict
This is some good news and it’s certainly weird to be discussing what appears to be a very shrewd move indeed business-wise involving our club.
I won’t get over excited about this as you know what can happen but I do think we can be pleased with this as it certainly looks and sounds exciting.
