Funny thing is, the Sky pundits do not know about there money troubles of do they , Just talk about how they have managed to get a team of players together from all over the world. Must be easy if you got no loans to pay back and a Council giving you 350 ,000 pounds a year

Let us not forget the our own council gave us £2m plus they provided the money to buy the ground. The latter was of course a loan and needs to be paid back but I believe they granted us a reasonable length of time before the first payment.

Not the same thing Scarlett.
We aren’t being gifted funds to keep the club afloat and then days later signing additional players. Bit of a smack in the mouth. I wouldn’t be happy if trinity did that.

The money granted to us was specifically tied to community projects, which the club have to report on directly to WMDC.
The money given (on top of the money already loaned and written off), to SRD is for ongoing, day to day, operational costs - costs which they should/could pay for themselves if the weren't spaffing it on players they cannot otherwise afford.
