Wheres the Money gone?

Wheres the Money gone?

Show me the money.

It’s like the Billy Davis scenario all over again. He had built the best team we have had in 40 years . Lost the play off final and hoped to be backed the next season. No backing so he fecked off.
We had the best side since 2005 last season, brought in big money and still did not back the manager.
No one is learning from past mistakes.
 
And BTW, it's not a fair question. Without TH we'd probably be lingering in a tier below League 2.

And we have heard too many times the “we are building” cliche.

Probably the correct answer.

Hemmings probably has his ideal balance sheet in my mind for the end of the season, don't think we will spend a decent sum unless he's confident of re-sale value and the wages fit in with the rest of the squad... slim pickings.
 
Improved contracts, signing on fees, agents fees, transfer fees, port vale.....and operating costs

What about increased Sky TV money and higher interest rates on a billion pound war chest . I dont think any signing on fees would be paid to any of our signings.
 
Possibly but certainly not probably. And the question was perfectly fair.

Personally, I don't think it is. It's loaded and provocative.

For a start, it implies it's been taken (by Hemmings) and syphoned off. The 'money' has 'gone' on what it always goes on. Keeping the club self sufficient for a few months, giving the existing squad improved or extended contracts, signing new players and paying their wages, paying off debt.

What's left of the 'money' (I assume Greenhall, a dreadful co-commentator whilst we're at it, is alluding to the money for Hugill and Cunningham) will be a fraction of the original amount.

That is just your slant on the question, perfectly legitimate to ask about finances given the input from outgoing transfers and our glaring need for a striker.
And of course some of the money will have been spent ,however the"fraction " remaining will be ,I suspect, a considerable amount.
