Counteh throwing even more money at it this season then, promotion or bust quite literally!
Same as the last 30 seasons, then.
Add:
** the formation of the new Notts County Women team (£500,000 running costs per year compared with £28,000 projected commercial income and gate money, which Hardy branded tantamount to financial suicide when he closed down the old Notts County Ladies 12 months ago);
** the cost of running notorious loss-makers Ilkeston (liquidated twice in seven years); and
** the cost of those £40,000 per month win bonuses (which back in December Hardy said were not sustainable);
and you have yet another financial enigma at Meadow Lane.
I wonder whether Hardy ever paid the outstanding tax bill for the defunct Notts County Ladies team? Hmmm.
