This whole "the club has no money," line that's being drip fed to the press, not very well I might add, is a bit worrying,
Where's the stadium and Thorp Arch upgrade?
Books and wage bill are balanced by the sale of Rapha and KP, added to the Sky money and the wedge we got for coming 17th.
So why no money?
Who's not prepared to put their hand in their pocket and why?
The 35m for Monk de Wally de Honk was apparently something the group of owners could put in with the possibility of some top up with some outside financing, but they only had an interest in za Belgian based on it being low risk, i.e. he'd have been here for a year and then off on double what we paid for him.
All a bit of a worry, owners (including the 49ers) can't take it to the next level it would seem..
