That's one bottom half season in the championship since he bought us and the season hasn't finished yet. You forget the position we were in and look at Bolton now.
People keep bringing up the issue of Tan making the club debt free but have no understanding of the FFP rules. It's not possible in a short period of time. The only way we might be able to do it would be by running the club more sensibly, appointing a manager like Harris and not throwing the kitchen sink at it like Fulham have. Then we could use some of the parachute money to pay off our debt.
