I thought we had elevated our football department spending to equal the other larger clubs??? Just shows you how far behind we were. I hope they continue to make this a priority.

Don't remember them ever saying that they had done it but were wanting to get up newar the bigger clubs

They did say during the course of 2013 that they had increased footy dept spend by over $1 million and were intending to do the same in 2014
