The cheques in the post----- Easy, install a wooden post in the office with a slot cut out, insert cheque into said post.

The money has been ring fenced----- Similar answer to above, but involves a large ring shaped fence.

We have done this to reward the fans----- We need money quick.

Your chance to invest in the future of the club (academy)---- The money placed in the large ring shaped fence has been used elsewhere

Transparency---- something transparent, esp. a picture, design, or the like on glass or some translucent substance, made visible by light shining through from behind. Sorry the light, the electricty bill has not been paid so there is no light from behind

Robust----- rough, rude, or boisterous

All monies will be given over to the manager---- once tax, bills, goldfish etc have been paid for.

Millions have been invested---- and several millions more lost.

We have now got the wage bill under control---- of Lehman Brothers.

Once the stadiums built, i'll be off----- to work out the next bonus.

I'll stay as long as the share holders want me to---- go elsewhere.

The Malaysians want me to stay for 3 years----- even though they have nothing to do with our club.
