From what I heard, ML &CC were the ones pushing for serious cash to be invested in the playing budget, in fact I may well have read that on here from some that attended a fans meeting the week after the season ended? More likely this would be down to the guy who signed the statement who prefers the "tread cautiously" approach. Let`s hope and pray that the buyout happens and we do get serious investment, otherwise, things could get pretty bleak under the old regime.
