The monthly lease of these cars probably barely covers a days wages for some of our squad.

Admittedly, I have given this Board a lot of stick, but they have inherited a ruddy hard situation on their hands, one of which they probably didn't expect to be as bad as once thought. Meaningless abuse over 2 hire cars, in comparison to the many more of the previous board is a tad unfair.

If they were to use these cars to pick me up from home take me to the Merlin then down to the ground at 2.53 I might start going a bit more often.If they dropped me home afterwards and didn't mind dribble on the exec leather seats that'd be the clincher

Why don't you tweet Jed and ask him? You can leave the bit out about dribbling if you want Smiley

It's probably about £700 a month, not exactly £8k a week is it.

So it's two cars, one for the manager and one for the chief exec. I guess.  Not exactly over the top compared to the Italian regime where they all seemed to have company cars - and don't forget we were renting a fucking great house in Ramsbury for them!!

What you also have to remember is that the likes of any player or exec working for a football club get 'VIP' deals from Mercedes - the leasing on these cars will be peanuts compared to what you or I woould pay... I was shown the VIP deal price list and it is dirt cheap.

One other thing to note is that pound for pound mercedes are the cheapest lease cars you can get due to very slow depreciation...

Fair play to him if that's what he wants, but not going to be very good if he is scouting in Carlisle on a wet November evening!!
