Quote: MonkeyLover "Can I ask you a question regarding signing players? Can you explain the business sense in signing players to add to the 14 we already have on contracts when we have absolutely no idea when the next season will start, if at all? No idea, not even a clue. And then to compound that even our best guess at when it will start does not guarantee crowds. Before anyone mentions central funding then lets just remember we also have coaching staff, medical staff, office staff, Academy Players and Staff, rent, other regular bills etc. Central funding does not even begin to cover the half of it and the furlough scheme ends soon. So what do we do? Ask David to bank roll a load of new signings? Seems to be the usual response to everything, just ask David to pay, he is good for it.
Anyone signing players at the moment is simply adding to their expenses without any guarantee of income for the next 6 months.
Does this seem like a good way to run a business in order to secure its long term future to you?'"
If the club had come out with this officially, a lot more people would be sitting at home feeling a little more like LB Management are in control. Its good its been shared on this forum, but it deserves a wider audience.
