    If you won the euromillions...

    and got 20 million and decided to allocate 5 mill of that to put towards your club. What way would you want it to be spent? What developments would you make to your club's ground and what players would you want to see brought in?
    I am aware that this is juvenile but it is something that has crossed my mind so any thoughts???
    PS: Although it is a fantasy topic try to keep the ideas in some way realistic!!

    Weird. I had this day dream only yesterday! Now i wasn't on for giving 25% of my winnings but what I was going to give was to be spent on players.

    well firstly i'd put a roof the whole way around the seating in flancare and fix those blasted polls obscuring everyones view in the main stand and finish the rest of the seating, and make the bathrooms stop smelling of urisne, tarmac the carpark, and get rid of the wrecked ticket office, and put in a big screen.

    and emm build our own training facilitys to the right of the ground (those little astro pitches are no use)

    Pay off the debts and build a decent ground and infrastructure.

    I's spend a lot on the facilities and improve the general off field structure and also clear the debt of the club. Only once all that was in place would I think about spending bucks on players.

    I wouldn't let an Irish club anywhere near that kind of money unless I owned it and could force sensible ongoing decisions onto the feckers......

    I would lodge it into a bank account and only let the club use the interest for the developments as slow improvements is the way forward. I would continue with our development of our new stand and build the futsal hall we want and put a new bar in there called after me. If Billy Bagster gets a pub called after him so should I!!!

    I'd appoint Roddy as manager then hire a few old stagers from England to get the punters in.
    Upwards to the vanguard where the pressure is too high.

    Clear debts, bribe whoever is required to get the shagging stadium started... or at least I'd hope I could do that rather than blowing it all on wages trying to get promoted and in to Europe. Temptation would be the problem...
