They haven't paid the tax bill. Or the rent to the council. ;)

lets face it- to be successful in sport today- you have to spend money.

Egg has huge handouts from WRU but they still cant compete with the millionaires on the boards of the french and english clubs.

Ospreys are the top Egg team and they have far less overheads than us although less gate receipts.

Puts our situation at CCFC into focus.

Whether it is adapt or die is another thing but failure to understand money in sport is crucial.

i hate the fact that we need to premier league money to be successful - it looks as if we have to comprimise to do it.

The season before moving to CCS when reaching final of Euro tournament, Blues made a loss of 500k.

There's f**k all money in rugby, hence anybody of any little talent f*cking off to France.
