Post New Airline planned ex Manston

Latest wheeze for Manston is that a couple of Whitstable Business men are planning to start an airline with a 737-800 flying out of MSE. Brand new aircraft currently being built and they say they will develop routes to Spain, PRG, GVA, France, Portugal and EDI.
It's going to be called Mama Airlines. !!!
Now I don't wan't to be negative, but the question must be asked..... Why should they succeed where so many have failed.
I have a distinct feeling of deja vu on this one.
The airport operator, Wiggins, has, according to reports, got the go ahead for new runways and aprons. Definitely needs new aprons, but Runways.??
Anybody got any further on this.??
