    No I meant Blackpool, that family has basically pocketed nearly all the money it made from its premier league appearance, hardly any of it went to the club,it went straight into the pocket of the owners, there was no legacy created by their time in the top flight,there was an article in the press about that ownership a few months back.

    Have a little read of this mate<ok>

    Though you are correct about Blackburn,another basket case of a club !

    Read the same thing in The Times about Oyston, Appleton was saying that they had no money to spend.

    £12m quid he paid himself for 1 season in the prem league !! making him the highest paid football employee in the whole of the premier league,the richest league in the world !

    Other directors at Man utd ,Arsenal,city and Chelsea earned no more than £2m !

    No new training facilities/training ground or any other legacy from the premier league cash boost.

    Charlie adam had to take this guy to court to get his 25k promotion bonus and the guy paid himself £12m pounds !! ....<laugh>

    Convicted felon and a crock FACT.

    Thought it was Kolo Toure ?

    Anyway there is not much difference between 200k and 210k is there,both obscene amounts of money for kicking a ball around!

    We are the mugs who endorse such obscene wages for paying our hard earned cash to go and see them....we could easily bring football to its knees if fans had the bottle to do so....

    Do you think so Dai? I like to think so, but football is a marriage of conveinience for all concerned isn't it.
