I wasnt just thinking of the squad, but your point is true..

I always thought the old board were business people who lacked a knowledge of the footballing side of the business, but now Im not so sure. Chase left us in a s**t position, but I would love previous board members to explain how our debt has almost tripled under their leadership, despite selling off most of the valuable land assets that Chase left us with, along with big money sales such as ?7m for Ashton and ?6m for Bellamy. We have had a season of Premiership money, and 2 seasons of parachute payments. Yet now we are scraping around for finance after the end of the season and our assets are now outweighed by our debt. WHY!
