| News Comment | Town Announce £3.2m Loss at 06:28:00
This report says the £100m is owed almost entirely to the Marcus Evans Group (MEG), not the individual? What I have not read is how MEG have treated the loan. Is there, for example, an accounting provision for a loan loss that is then set off against a tax liability for the profit made in other MEG companies? Owler.com shows MEG estimated turnover at $203m per annum making ITFC a small part of total group income? Like others I think ITFC fans should be grateful to MEG for rescuing ITFC from oblivion. However, from a journalist reporting perspective there is a distinction to be made between ITFC being a corporate tax efficiency device for MEG and the perception of a billionaire philanthropist bailing out ITFC |

I must be a Grumpy old git so apologies up front. I detest the "kids" reference. Age, be it young or old, should not be a selection criteria. If you focus on age the risk is you mentally develop an unconscious bias that then leaves you blinkered and risks opportunities being lost. Agree with names BotesdaleBlue put forward. I would add Jason Dozzel, Kieran Dyer, and Titus Bramble as examples from a time when the Manager did not believe that youth countered against a player. Also these great "kids" that went onto bring in a lot of transfer fee mone into the cluy. Think Jason went back to school on the Monday |
| News Comment | Bowman Joins McCarthy's Staff as Ireland Win in Gibraltar at 07:11:28
Sunday papers have Mick quoted as "hating every minute" of the Gibraltar game. Interesting to see how this type of motivation talk impacts their performance against Georgia. Also once a blue, always a blue. Great to see a mini reunion of old boys and to see how some of the current crop perform on the International stage. |
