Heard they need some cash to build an athletics track at Tong.

A feasibility study into carrying out a strategic review into the feasibility of creating yet another hole in the heart or puddle in the middle. Conducted by Adeybull International Consulting LLP (registered in the Bahamas or somewhere else warm and tax-friendly).
