If I can, I’ll try to put together a feature on how the Kasper fee got misreported and what really happened. My workplace might be keen, but I’d also be happy to run it for PON.

I remember the talk of £1,000,000 and £500,000 being paid at the time, but later people began saying it was actually a free. It’d be good to clear that up with the facts. I wouldn’t want to focus just on Munto, but looking into the behind-the-scenes bits of deals like Kasper’s and Sol Campbell’s would make a cracking read.

  • I'm quite glad in a way it never materialised, if the millions/billions were real I think in the end even the massive amount of money spent would've caused us bigger problems in the future, potentiall

    Yes but they’ve said nothing about a monorail yet, or building a hotel, or signing Messi. Where’s their ambition?

    Fool’s gold and dodgy banker’s drafts, it was all a bit of a dream that lasted one season before everything went wrong. In one way, it’s a real shame how it turned out, but in another, we were lucky t

I always thought Kasper came in on a free transfer. I remember reading that he signed for a million, but over time I started to think that might’ve been a lie from Munto. Back then, clubs could probably get away with saying they paid a fee without much proof. @TheSkipper, if you ever feel like looking into it, I think it’d be a good read. I understand why you might want to steer clear of Munto stuff though, it has been covered a lot.

Oh oh oh ohhhhh, everywhere where we go, watching super County putting on a show!

The Munto era was wild. It brought loads of attention to Notts and even helped bring some fans back. But over time, a few of those fans drifted away, either because of how the club spoke to supporters or because of the drop to the National League. I sometimes wonder what might have happened if the takeover never went ahead. In another universe, maybe Notts could’ve been the ones replacing Bournemouth or Brentford.

I pitched it earlier today; my editor is thinking it over. Even if he doesn't like it, I might persist in my personal time. It would be a lot easier to use my media credentials. At least from the investigative angle. I might reach out to Peter Trembling, but he may want to distance himself from it now. He clearly was the pawn behind it all and probably was clueless as to Russell King's lies.
