It may not even be spin, it may just be habit to speak in such terms. They are money men, they work in finance, we do not. A liability and a debt may be two different things.
I see your point, Marko, but they're now making announcements to fans, not the money world. Communications has never been their strong point.
Its no different though. We should know that with the way bankers have ****ed up things worldwide with their clever spin on debt and investment. Bottom line is in any honest mans books, if you owe money its debt no matter how you dress it up
Do you mean the top class championship player Murphy ? (Bargain)will be worth £3MILLION by the season end,I know a club that spent nearly that amount on a players wage,who's scored none,and sits at home with his sick note on £20,000 a week while his team head for league 1.
Official reports state it was a minimal fee with a whole host of clauses and add on's including percentage of a sell on fee. If it had been even half the £1m up front there would have been a big announcement, not the undisclosed fee the club reported
I dont think too many of us are bothered what he cost apart from the wallies. He looks like being a great signing. I wonder have the scum any more like him they want to offload
Correct! Completely different. We all have liabilities - every time you use your credit card your liabilities go up. For most of us, the only debt we have is the mortgage on our houses.
