Mostly hot air from people who do not put their money where their mouth is. </p> "When I hear the moans and groans, it would be easy to say eff off to the lot of you and take the advice of some so-called fan to return to Monte Carlo. </p> "Believe me, if I did that, you would have no club - there are no rich investors, just chancers. </p> "However, I will complete the task and we will succeed in due course." </p><div class="articleTools"></div>
