Moneybags Mansfield

Apparently, their bonkers Chairman pumps £100,000/month into the club. That's £1.2m/year, or 20% more than the Board paid for our whole club back whenever.
What the hell do they do with it? They're getting 3500/week through the gates, they must have the same income streams that we have (minus the big screen, of course), so they are getting one hundred large a month to blow on coke and hookers and they're still producing the football which, in my experience at least, is the worst I've ever come across in the Football League.
How do these clubs do it? How do they have so much money and manage to do so little with any of it? Plymouth, Rovers, Northants, Mansfield, Exeter, just a massive list of extremely wealthy (or, in Exeter's case, persistently lucky) clubs who manage to be absolutely no better than us and Accrington who bump along on 50p/week.
I really hope we get £500,000 from the Eunan deal. We'd walk this division, surely, given our obvious comparative ability to spend money extremely wisely.
Matt.
