So where did this £100m figure come from ?

Nothing about figures but...

"I am here to support them as required to ensure that the club recaptures the glory days of the past and builds sustained success in the future.

"I know a lot of you want to know what my plans are. There is much to be done and things for me to learn, but I can confirm that I have committed to providing additional funds for transfers and retaining our key players to ensure that we have a strong core to build on for the future."

Was it not the press? I'm sure I read one of those "SHOCKING: EFC to spend bumper 100m warchest" stories somewhere

I ask because

- no one at the club has ever mentioned it once
- no one at the club even suggested we would spend big this summer (as far as I'm aware)

It all seems to be built around presumptions, first i heard about it was on the forums and twitter and then the press picked up on it and from there it seems to have somehow turned into a fact... which has ultimately led to disappointment.

Some may suggest the figure was leaked to the press by the club to soften us up but I'm fairly sure the press only started reporting AFTER the figure was doing the rounds on social media etc.

I seem to remember it doing the rounds before Esks posts about our targets etc

I'm convinced some random made it up and it somehow spread to forums and social media and from there the press picked up in it and it snowballed.
