    Some bloody eye watering sums in that lot.

    Thing is the 38.1 million owed by Weds won't be written off by the co - op this time!

    It's appalling how clubs can borrow such astronomical sums like that and not be punished. Surely they've spent more than the than the 60% tariff allowed?

    As much as we are showing zero, I like the fact we do live within our means run by a very prudent businessman, and there's nothing wrong with that. Bet the Ipswich owner would love our bank balance.

    One day when the bubble bursts and clubs go under the re-set button will be pressed and, hopefully unlike others, we'll still have a club.

    Shows that money alone cannot buy success. Shows that you cannot have success without spending money. A conundrum.

    So if Stewart spent a bit of money would we be higher in the table?

    Not necessarily is the answer. But also true is that we are unlikely to get any higher if he doesn't spend any.

    Brentford £59m. Wow.
    Now we know why they can pass the ball a bit better than us.

    To say we owe nothing is a bit simplistic though. We owe money to Uncle Tone,s other businesses don't we?

    Well that’s one league table I’m glad we’re bottom of.

    Some geezer once put it quite succinctly:
    "Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure nine**** pounds nine**** shillings and sixpence, result happiness. Annual income twenty pounds, annual expenditure twenty pounds ought and six, result misery."
