Its not just a phone call though. Its a new lease agreement. These things take time to arrange and complete. I agree its not ideal, but there are more pressing issues.
Elliot is hounding Appleton to complete the report. Maybe to the detriment to other issues.
Appleton is in charge now & unfortunately he has more pressing issues to deal with.
Would you rather he got through his admin report or ensure the academy had 3g to play on instead of grass?
I agree with you but we HAVE to fall within FFP regs or face points reductions. To do this we'll need to reduce the payroll significantly, meaning top earners such as Clarke.
I'd imagine he'd be one of the first players needed to be offloaded if we fail to gain promotion. Unless we get a decent, revenue increasing package from ACL.
