We are back to the days of total secrecy

The transfer fees and possible add-ons for McCarron, Galloway, Branthwaite and Henderson cannot be revealed because the clubs receiving these players seem to have insisted on Non Disclosure Agreements.

There is a lot more that will not be disclosed and we can only assume that everyone who deals with the club insists on a Non Disclosure Agreement.

When John Nixon's wife asks him what the current time is he replies "Oh no, that is the subject of a Non Disclosure Agreement".

Even if the club receives further money, it will disappear. The brutal truth is coming.

If the rumoured add-on figure for the Henderson Manchester United Debut is true then Carlisle United 1921 is in a no-lose position. In my opinion the best that could happen is that EWM could take that money and subtract it from the 1921 debt to EWM. One way or another the club will benefit from that money.
