Agree with most of what you say

I put it down to one thing - and it aint a good reason.

At this club the Board made a terrible decision to keep hold of the failing Nigel worthington almost a year too long. They lost their credibility in many many fans eyes at that time and haven't done a lot to regain it.

Its obvious we have no new investment at this club, therefore we are running on break even terms - for the most part money for players is only coming when other players are sold.

We are not seeking new investment so that is the way it is.

That is what Doomcaster is reminding us today, as we cannot afford Taylor.

The likes of Pattison and Camara will only be a couple of hundred grand max. that is where we are at and will be for the forseeable future.

Its a damn shame when the Turners are paraded by the press as being rich as, but are not likely to invest in our club. Business nouse... whatever.
