It can't get any worse.

Though in actual fact, I can see how the football club could shed that £6M. Half or more of it has probably already left the books, we can still lose Naysmith and Speed with no effect.

It's not the football club, but property at home and in China that will drag us into the shit.

We're still better run than we have been in my lifetime. You want Brealey and the like? Have a look at Darlington, where he went before selling to another spiv.

Speed is the one person I'd like to keep as a coach at the very least. You're doing nothing but shoot from the hip.

And as you know, the Tevez money was always coming in dribs and drabs. Don't make it sound as if there was a £20m immediate payout, because as you well know, it wasn't. There are still monies owed to us.

To insinuate that we had a "£20m Bricie Bonus" is disingenuous at best.

Nope, it was entirely accurate.
I also note Blackie's comment post-Derby:
"We don't have our Premier League parachute payment anymore and so we're going through a transitional period."
I can't recall what the parachute payments were but I'd hazard a guess that the Tevez money was on a par with the total.
Not that it gets mentioned much by the club these days.

Missed that classic from Blackwell. Makes me want to vomit. Poor old Blackie, he only spent £3.4m this summer.

We have to be the first club in history going down the pan not because of spending when in Prem but because of spending post relegation and spending on commercial property in Rushden and some awful (in my opinion) riverside apartment blocks in non-descript UK towns crippld by the recession.

Only me?

Have a look at some posts in this thread.

It's not only me......and I'm posting what others are saying.

Yes, only you.

Your approach is typical of many football fans who want this and that, with no idea of how to pay for it. It's how we got into this mess in the first place.

I'd like Speed as a coach. I don't want Speed, in any capacity, on £30K per week. How much should we pay?

Without Tevez and Kyle's = £76M of debt. An absolute disgrace. Explain to my why Brealey, the ladyboys etc were so much worse?
