Net debt £147m
The last few years have been an absolute disaster for them. I've always had them down as a very similar club to Cardiff - same sort of crowds, league history, background, etc. (I'm sure someone will be along soon to put me straight). The things is, I'm reading that article, and I kept thinking - 'This could be us'. Anything happens to Uncle Vinnie, and we could be in trouble.
I would agree that Tan's running of the club has not been perfect. But we have never had a points deduction for breaching FFP and that prudent running of the club saved our backsides last season. The fact is we are limited in what we can spend in the transfer market because of FFP. Having the sixth biggest wage bill means there is next to nothing left for transfer fees.
The only reason that VT is still here is pride, he cannot be seen as a failure. When he visited last year he had the women's team and manager with him at the Malaysian embassy as, IIRC, they had just done the double.
MD has said, on several occasions, that VT has turned down what MD considered to be realistic offers.
