As soon as any club sells / hands over their ground to a third part they are simply hostages to fate.

Exactly. We had our fate in our own hands and we actually gave it away. I remember there was a Trust vote to ratify the handover to KC and the 40 or so 'No' votes were ridiculed and told that they looked stupid. They turned out to be right.

If we hadn't given the club and land to KC the club would have died five and a half years ago rather than now.

And if Max hadn't given the club to the supporters trust, they wouldn't have given it to KC. We can go on and on... My only gripe with the supporters trust board, was why, when we knew money was going to be tight did they employ PHart, Bowyer and Woan? I mean they must have come at a very heavy price??

Would it though? We would have just been in the Conference/Conference North and had to downsize? We still had quite a few fans at that point as well.
