I wonder how much the DCMS's thinking over the grants/loans issue is influenced by how badly the first round of funding was handled. Ultimately it's public money and although it's bad news for Notts you could understand why the government aren't keen to hand over another grant.

Anyways it's now being reported that the option of the league taking on the loan is off the table which means tomorrow will probably be the last game of the season. Disappointing, but given how little we've played over the past couple of months it stopped feeling like a season quite a few weeks ago.
