It's now time to pass on the details to the bums on the seats...One Family!!
I just don't understand many football club owners. In our everyday lives we are always told to live within our means. When the money comes in each month you pay your mortgage/rent, then your utilities and any other bills. If you own a business, make sure you pay the taxman on time and any money owing to suppliers. It seems like football club owners would go out and by a porsche, not pay bills and re
A lot of them seem to think they can buy a Championship club throw a bit of money
at a few players and get promoted to the Premier League as they
are 'Successful Businessmen' and it can't be that hard can it ?
Spot on. The majority of us, if we had a football club, would ensure we paid our bills on time. What's left you can invest in the squad and hope that it gets you in a position to compete near the top. There would be no talk of 6 or 7 million spends on players, whilst bills were not being paid. It's like us not paying our mortgage or utility bills in the hope that we get 6 numbers on the lottery and that will sort everything out.
 
I don't think that particular situation was incompetence or naivety, if it was me, I'd have a go at getting that loan fee deducted from the permanent fee as well.

To me it would seem an insanely cheeky thing to ask. Why would they ever agree to it? Obviously we feel we got poor value from that £1m but it isn't their fault or their problem. They'd be writing off £1m when they don't have any need to.

100% agree, and no blame from me for trying to finagle that....what worries me is the comment about straw that broke the camels back.....the unknowns around unpaid suppliers and other clubs.....likely less excusable
