Hilaire already explained that due to us only having one home series against SA last year at home we were bound to make loses, but after signing a deal with ESPN, getting a new shirt sponsor with WoodWorm and also having two home series against Pak and India coming up he expects the money to come rolling in this year!!..but no doubt you won't believe him!! :lol: .

don't trust anyone when money is concerned. When we see the audited books we will believe it.

However, this is another good reason to boycott the home series. :) Fans (Customers) have a say too.. we should send a message to the boar by staying away from the games.

Letting Gibson go we can save 300K off the bat..
