Regardless of truth in this rumour this is going to do McCabes stock with fans (love him or hate him) a lot of damage. He invited this situation in on ridiculous partner terms that any businessman with a bit of sense would have laughed out of the door.![]()
Or McCabe had spent as much as he could and without the money of the Prince (as there has been some) coming in we were heading backwards into the abyss!
We can argue all day about the merit of Clough/Brannigan or whatever but their arrival saw the arrival of players who we have built the teams revival around, and supplied a playing surface that allowed us to play the best football in generations. And by all accounts a lot of those decisions were funded and pushed through (rightly or wrongly) by the Princes reps with the aid of his money.
It’s not worked out as hoped but the situation we’re in now is unlikely to have happened without the initial arrival of the Prince and Clough.
