Yes GHM you and Ted are right, the funding is always going to be an issue, even when the new Stadium is built.
Many clubs have perished even with a new stadium, look at Darlington for example.
If Dennis does get the job he will be working with not much more than he had before.
I do believe that him and David Newton still have a good working relationship, DN has said many times that it was the hardest decision he has had to make at the club when he ended Dennis tenure, because he really liked him and enjoyed working with him.
So I think he would welcome Dennis back, and perhaps now things have settled down for him, getting married and becoming a father, this may now be just the right time to make his own come back.
