Probe cost Blues duo £200,000
Birmingham co-owner David Sullivan claims the police investigation into alleged corruption in football has cost him £200,000 in legal fees.
Sullivan and Brady were arrested by City of London Police in April on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud and false accounting.
They are among eight people currently on bail in the ongoing investigation and Sullivan believes the Operation Apprentice inquiry will be concluded early next year.
He said: "We're all on bail until February and I think we all anticipate it will be resolved in February. We'll either be charged or they will have finished their inquiries and said there is no case to answer."
Sullivan strenuously denies any wrongdoing in this matter.
He said: "We've answered every single question they've put to us. We've gone out of our way to supply documents. We've opened everything at the club to them. We've paid all the auditors' fees, legal fees and accountants' fees.
"Our bills are over £200,000 already on this case. They want all kinds of documents and it all costs money, time and energy to produce. We couldn't co-operate any more but it's extremely costly.
"I cannot tell you how much this has taken out of us. There is not an hour of every day that I don't think about this and I'm sure Karren is exactly the same."
