well if you know how much it really is

then please tell us so we can judge for oursleves.

If you don't know how much it is then I wonder how you can be critical of their financial commitment?

In all honesty this is going to go on all summer. It is a continuation of the KTFers row from 2006, with two entrenched sides throwing rocks from behind the (fire)walls.

The board made the right appts in Walker & NW but screwed up with Grant & Roeder (Rioch, Hammy & Gunn are middle-ground).

They have made right decisions and wrong ones but there is no absolute scientific formula to running a footy club.

This year Sejan got injured and it hurt us; If Malky had suffered a similar injury in 2003 then we would probably not have got promoted. The element of luck is something that no board of directors, steeped in football or otherwise, can control.

Delia has pumped millions (the fact we are arguing if it is 5 million or 10 is laughable, that is a shed-load of money for someone outside the top 2,000 richest people in the UK) into her local football club and asked for very little in return.

She does not ask us to cover the debts by rising ticket prices to Man Utd levels. She sets the ludicrous wage bill and she, bless her, then covers the shortfall.

I see that one of the Bertram dynasty is having a pop today. Having spent a mere 50k of their 75 mill wealth on NCFC shares I am not sure that they are in the strongest position to be arguing for regime change.
