Without Phil Brown there would be more Fake Tan on the shelves .

The debt increased from £49m to £99m under his tenure, that much is a fact, but the value of the players he signed easily covered that debt increase. Ehab didn't like him and wanted him gone, long before the 2014-15 season where he spent the main cash.

The biggest fact, is that Bruce got us to the Premier League twice and that generated hundreds of millions in income, many times what he spent.

But apart from that

We were £50m in debt when Bruce took over, so even if you ignore the tens of millions we made on the players he signed, the maximum debt you can hold him responsible for is £50m.

This figure is variable depending on the context it's being discussed. If it's about how **** the Allams are at running the club it's £30m but if it's about how wonderful fat **** is its £50m.

I believe the truth was somewhere between the two, originally thought to be £30m but soon discovered after poor due diligence that it was in fact £40m.

The figures I used were from the accounts, they’re a fact, not an opinion.

The point stands, it's £30m when discussing how **** the Allams are.

How much money did Bartlett lose from his ownership of the club?

I never mentioned the debt when the Allams took over, we’re just discussing the debt when Bruce started and when he left.

Nobody knows how Bartlett ended up, other than Bartlett.
