A multi Billionaire, turns to you and says right I want to invest my money into your favourite football team (preferably a lower team down from Premiership/Championship) and I want you to be in control of it. I want you to tell me what I should use the money on. What would you do with the money? Which Club? What would you build or improve? What would you do for supporters? You decide and tell us. See whether we should give you a billion or so monopoly notes. Just bit of fun for a Saturday evening. I may even post something about what I'd do with Hereford

who would you buy? You gotta be realistic in a sense of where you are in the football standings. I mean Beckham, Ronaldo, Adriano, Gerrard etc would not join a team in the Conference unfortunately. You probably could attract League 1 and downwards players tho and some reserve/young players from Premiership

First of all, Edgar Street would be no more. I love the ground, it's got so much history and character, but in order for Hereford to progress fully, I would redevelop the whole ground. Maybe, if it were possible, move the ground more centrally into the Merton Meadow Car Park, meaning plenty of room for development. The ground would hold 10,000, and would be all seater apart from the New Meadow End, which would be a large 3000 terrace.
Then I would develop a large training centre for Hereford, and youth sides. A youth side would be set up, including a youth academy.
All the commerical side of the club would be improved, a new and improved club shop, with lots of new ideas.
Then, I would get onto players. As Chesh said, I would aim to attract players who are not too famous. So in would come the likes of Joe Anyinsah, Aaron McClean (Some Hereford fans hate him, I hate him for what he did, but he's a fantastic player, and is flying currently at Peterborough). John Eustace would be signed on a proper deal, and Stuart Thurgood would come in to toughen up the midfield. We would get some more back-room staff, and then, give all the money to Graham Turner, so he could spend it on the players he wants!

Right, firstly i would buy Huddersfield Town, get Bill Shankly back as manager, I would give every household in Huddersfield and surroundings a free family season ticket, and bring the fun back in coming to a football match , taking away all the fighting.
I would bring the less abled fans to the stadium by coach and take them back home , every home match. i would randomly pick a family to join the players coach and be given VIP treatment for a day , with signed football shirts for all the family.
i would change the food to more healthier products - like fruit , sandwiches, rather than greasy hot dogs !!!
Then, just for a laugh, i would buy Bradford City and L**ds Utd, sell the clubs and land on ebay with a 99p starting bid , or buy it now for a fiver, and let there be Lidl's on valley road - sadford, and Elland Road - L**ds !!
also , as a good will gesture , i would give every small club in the land some money, just to help them get by. Every small club needs some money
