There's probably even a bit of this years funding from season tickets and sponsors left over as we haven't had to pay out as much, eg stadium rent, winning bonus's, stewarding costs etc. But where's the income coming from for next year. No sign of season tickets going on sale yet and no indication of when fans could be allowed back in ground so imagine take-up will be significantly down on this years figures. Would imagine sponsorship will also be a harder sell as they aren't getting much exposure for their money.
City seem to have a streaming service, which I assume is free to season ticket holders. Talking to fans there are a few glitches but it's early days and most seem satisfied.
Given that we had this two or three years ago I see no reason why this shouldn't be re-started, though I guess Gleds will have the info on that side of it. I'll happily sign up for that, so fingers crossed.

I’m not disappointed we’ve missed out on him.
Not because he’s a bad player, far from it. He’s shown he is a very good player over the years. However his main game has always seemed to be his offloads and it’s just not a style that we have ever played under Kear.
Would have been a solid player but a bit pointless for me as we wouldn’t have used the offload game
No we haven't but he's something different to what is already a very handy pack. Doyle is a line breaking, sniping runner who'd thrive on broken play. Lilley and Brough are not going to be super quick. I'm encouraged that he's the type of player we're trying to sign tbh.
