    Balance sheet.

     Profit
    Recent Premiership side - parachute payments et al...</p>

    Large gate, strong fan base.</p>

    Sold Peter Crouch (£7M) </p>

    Sold Kevin Phillips (£1M)</p>

    Sold Theo Walcott (£5M)</p>

    Sold Nigel Quashie (£1.2M)</p>

    Sold Gareth Bale (£5M)</p>

    Sold Kenwyn Jones (£6M)</p>

    Sold Chris Baird (£3M)</p>

    Total In £22.2M + Others at <£1M</p>

    Liabilities / deficits</p>

    High cost of new stadium though offset by land development on the Dell.</p>

    Rupert Lowe.</p>

    Root Cause</p>

    Probably getting taken over (55% share) by the hedge fund specialist SISU with the club suffering the saqme down turn as the finance firm did.</p>

    Rupert Lowe's incompetence. E.g. Appointing Clive Woodward onto the training staff.</p>
