Indeed!
Although I do think that's a tad unfair on cabbages...turnips perhaps...

| I wouldn't be too concerned about accounts for 2008 - if they were that awful, Rovers'd not be trading still. Also the creditors are, to a significant extent, directors, I believe, who'd have little to gain by suddenly calling in the debt. An, ahem, 'unhurried' approach filing accounts has become something of Rovers tradition.
There'll be a loss of a similar size to 2007, according to NH in his programme notes (can't recall which game - I can check if anybody is desperate). The concern is how long the directors will keep underwriting that and what can be done to improve the situation.
I know the glee with which bad news in this area is met, spun or even created in certain quarters, and the subject itself, can be pretty boring, but it is absolutely fundamental. NH has done an excellent job, but he's not a magician. He's talked about this himself (financial issues, not his lack of magical ability) in a recent interview - the infamous 'cabbages' one in fact.
Crossriver mudslinging and sulking about all the advantages they were handed by fate is... well fair enough actually. However it changes nowt - life isn't fair and you just have to play the cards you are dealt. They could have been rather worse lately - at least Rovers have a franchise and a chance to build the club alongside the team.

Your usual measured and well-balanced approach.
Was it 2008 or 2009 he was referring to?

2008, I'd assume. the 2009 accounts won't be filed late for another year yet, will they? You're the accountant!

No that acolade goes to fans of clubs who spend as much time as their rivals forum spouting garbage as they do on their own.
