This £10k a month thing just opens up a whole can of worms. According to Fitzsimons, in his latest interview with Radio Humberside, he had absolutely no idea about all the off field stuff going on around Hilton when he signed and didn’t have very much to do with him. Presumably all the other big signings were similarly in the dark. Is it an amazing lack of diligence by their agents or did they just think take the big contract and if the club folds you can walk away and are good enough to get straight in somewhere else ?
