Running a Break Even Club
I was always prepared to bank roll Newcastle up to the tune of £20 million per year... That was my bargain. I would make the club solvent. I would make it a going concern. I would pour up to £20 million a year into the club and not expect anything back.

Mike wants to build something here but wants to build it in such a way it's not costing him £10m or £15m a year of his own money.
