I've not seen that, if you're referring to the 7500 Steps to the Holte Blog on the matter from earlier in the year. Swiss Ramble definitely stated £39 million if nothing changed, which it now has to the tune of £12 million one way and commercial revenue the other way.

Left hand side of defence is not as I would like, but that's a side easily capable of top 6, so I do not agree we've been left with nothing or starting from scratch. I think there's a great deal of anxiety exaggerating the situation into the chaos of not knowing for sure quite what will happen this summer.
The other day the Birmingham Mail did a wonderfully dramatic story likening us to Coventry '83 or Hull a couple of years back and practically making out there would be a mass exodus and we would struggle to put eleven players out onto the pitch next season. What I got from Dr T's statement was that Bruce would be staying on and we would be giving it our best shot again whilst accepting that the financial picture has changed for us after two seasons out of the top flight. It is also worth remembering that Bruce is right up their with the best when it comes to utilising the loan market. I don't expect Swansea, Stoke or Albion to run away with the league next season. Nor do I expect any of the rest of last season's top ten (Boro, Derby, Preston, Millwall, Brentford and Sheff U) to suddenly become world beaters.
Being behind the 8 ball from game 3 makes it hard.
