I disagree Shaky. We know that Rochdale received £265k for Alan Knill - I bet we didn't get that for Coleman. A quick google will also probably reveal how much compo they paid Steve Eyre when they sacked him in December (3 1/2yr contract remaining).
We could find out how much Preston received for their last transfer out and safely bet that we didn't get that for Procter.
Its hardly the top of the Premiership and knowing a club is awash with coin because they've moved a big name on.
My thoughts are that with tiny clubs like us we feel like it is us that are constantly being 'encouraged' to have that extra pint, or a flutter on the half time draw. It is who shake and then fill the buckets when we need it. Granted its not as much as IK has put in but thats the feel behind a community club. When figures are undisclosed it gives the cloak and dagger impression.
On the other hand I know people who still think we have the Brett Ormerod money to spend ...
