Re: Do we still have money problems??

As you stated Jiffy Bag the youth set up is funded externally, but presumeably this is money that is paid into the club by a third party. PFA or whoever. Regarding Nickelsons comment that the players are not paid during the close season I an pretty sure that you are wrong.
Having spoken to EW about this previously it makes sense to pay only during the period when your income is at its highest. ie say £25k divided into 40 weeks rather than £25k paid out over 52 weeks. I mentioned to EW that several clubs had instigated this scheme, and he had already spoken to the Chairman of one Lancs club who had introduced it.
Dont think it went any further at ASFC though.
