Some of the clubs 'form' you refer to Balti, comes from now assuming some past rumours as fact I don't believe that those running the club lack ambition I do believe that Bates knows that to make the proposed improvements as profitable as possible will require a successful team And a successful team will need a financially sound club To survive in the Premiership we are going to need to make as much profit as possible, from as many angles as possible I'm not having a dig, just trying to be as possitive as I can I'm looking forward to next season and hoping that by the end of the summer we'll have good reason to be optimistic MOT |

Thought just struck me. Don't we have to come up with £9M to buy Thorp Arch by October? |

For me this sums it up exactly... His agent is now quoted as saying that our offer was extremely generous for league one - we can't expect the club to gamble on offering more than we can afford, and I trust Bates never to do that. Likewise I don't believe he will try to make quick £££, at the expence of the team, as he knows there is loads more money in a successfull club. I hoped Bates would put in many many sly clauses such as 'non-promotion release for £xxx' and substantial pay rise if we were promoted etc - and that this would tempt Beckford to gamble on another season with us - since he could be made to sit out his contract anyway and then we'd still get some money next season. Win-win. I reality, Beckford was never likely to stay if we didn't get promoted - unless we broke the bank. I don't blame Beckford all for that - but I am glad we didn't.
