Firstly, we do not know if that is the case or not.
Secondly, even if it is, it does not take account of the fact that cost of living in Switzerland is a good bit higher than here.
So the difference in the budget, I think it was €8M plays £5M is not as big a gap as is made out because you HAVE to pay player more money because it is a higher cost of living.
Forget about the pints. They were simply used as a measure of expense ( when asking about the cost of thing most people ask ‘how much is a pint?’).

Some chat doing the rounds that Kensell is leaving? Not sure if it's part of the review outcomes or a pre-planned move. Anyone heard anything?

We were in hellish debt, had an ancient dump of a stadium and the players trained in public parks, dog **** and all.
The current regime has and is decorating the stadium and replaced the pitches with hybrid pitches.
If they build the full size covered indoor pitch at East Mains, as suggested, they will have made real progress.
As for Foley, he will be 80 before this year is out so both he and that drive you are speaking about could disappear overnight.
Hibs and Kensell are making steady progress off the pitch and will start making progress on the pitch as well. It's only 3 years since a world pandemic and we are coming out of a naive moneyball approach from the new owners but the big picture is we are in good financial shape and ready to move forward now after 2 hellish seasons in 3.
Kensell is doing fine on the commercials and McDermott will do well with the player movement in and out if he remains. Hopefully he is here for at least 5 more months to sort out all the summer business. Supporters are a fickle lot, nay wonder the club feels it has to fire spin at us all the time to calm us down.
Ian Gordon is the guy to judge Kensell because he actually knows what the guy has done well and what he hasn't.Last edited by PHeffernan; 22-04-2024 at 03:48 PM.

Ron identified that as a key area very early on and I suspect put most of the wheels in motion before his health declined.
