The club IS running at a loss, the budget was and is the highest in the clubs history in League Two.
So the money from Mayor cannot be touched by Jason, any money leaving the club MUST be ratified by the board, let’s get that straight. It isnt in a series of payments, it’s cash, now, so a good deal for the club and should see us ok for a few months.
Should he make a success at Millwall, there is a built in add on should he be sold and extras for Internationals etc.
It’s more than the rumoured 300k, but less than 400k, that’s all I’ve been told. Caring is sharing.
Hope that clarifies things and removes some of the doom and gloom re where will the money go?

For me the extra money or at least a good percentage should go to securing certain player next season (a list was given showing my preferences previously) so that Ged and Co don't need to do a complete rebuild as in previous seasons.
With the development of a number of Academy players the squad should have a good mix of youth and experience especially if we can tie both Edwards and Barker to a contract.

As has been pointed out, most of this money is to keep the Club running for a few months till season ticket money gives us a boost.
We maybe have more income than last financial year, but the costs will have spiralled. Staff wages, loss of Saturday games and paying for extra floodlighting on a Tuesday night must be costing a fortune.
We offer the cheapest season ticket prices to get people in but how much do they spend other than a home game every couple of weeks?
We made a profit in L1 with extra efl payments, sales of players, Spurs cup run and then managers compensation.
The accounts should be announced fairly soon so we will see.
Difficult balancing act
