That's not real is it??

I afraid so. Beyond concerning

 

[MartyMcFly]

Family club. That means we don't want to spend money.

 

[Mrk]

If real, that's embarrassing and he's gone right down in my estimations. Total spin.

 

[KUEFC09U2]

Of course it's real. He'd literally be getting sued otherwise...

Oh come on mate a man who hasn't spoken barely 2 words decides to spill all to jim white?

 

[BLUEBERT]

Maybe and I hate to disparage you for positive thinking because I will not hide the fact that I am still pissed off, but they apparently had the money available and they had months to get in the targets they wanted. Instead they spent the majority of their money within a week of stones being sold and waited until the last day to do the rest of their business and got burned. This says to me either the money isn't there and/or the management team is still inept.

Hope I'm right and not You mate, We all want the best for the club in the end [well most of us, some lads on here make me doubt it ].

 

[ijjysmith]

This can't be real surely?!

 

[Toffeemac08]

Why would a journalist make up a quote? What has he got to gain?

 

[MartyMcFly]

Makes the rumor that it was Moshiri that stopped the Carvalho transfer due to money more believable.

 

[chippy1722]

We were way way too slow to dispose of Martinez.
Not only prevented a possible cup win but had a knock on effect that delayed the whole summer planning.

Also BK no longer has a place negotiating deals. That should have been a thing of the past.

Koeman told the board to wait until the pre season was over before buying so he could assess everyone. martinez can take the blame for a lot of things, but not this window.

 

[Ashtonian]

lol

there is your lack of ambition showed by the club.

So what do we do when we want to get better? Still accommodate these players despite them not being good enough? Is this why we boguht from crap teams so the first team players already didn't lose their place?

 

[hibbo'sclass]

OMG - if real, please take the guy's phone off him.
If you want to gloss over the Sissoko debacle, you just go along the lines of the player apparently changed his mind surely?

 

[Moomin]

We never signed Bony because Niasse is our special little soldier.

 

[nsno-chris]

they didnt flog off their best asset to raise funds though.

Ohh so now the tune is changed. I don't think we had a choice with Stones, do you? If were flogging our assets then Rom would be in West London and Ross probably tucked up in Manchester at the moment.

Don't alk utter tosh, you said the RS have spent more than us, they haven't; they recouped more.

 

[d4kyxx]

Err, RS negative spend £2.7m, us £2.4m

Yeh but that's probably because the owners at the RS have been fed up of throwing 100ms every year and getting no return

He should have been the first out the door!!!
