I disagree i'm afraid
If Hucks wages werent subsidised by an outside source our Board probably would have turned down the winning lottery ticket.
Let alone the fan pressure, media pressure and pressure from Worthington on the Board for him to sign.
The fact our Boardroom was the stumbling block where it almost fell through says everything you need to know about their prudence and ability.
Remember Elvis Hammond - I wonder how much behind the scenes pressure Worthington had to put on them to get the budget up to afford Hucks in on loan originally?
