I wonder if we are waiting until we know if Frank is staying

When he spoke last week it sounded like nobody would come in until after tomorrow and it's proved correct so it's make or break now

Not buying the players we bought.

We only spent 1.8m though, on Gray, thats the point, even if we didnt buy him we still couldnt afford Diaz, Bobble has made a fool of himself on this one

 

[Bluewolf]

Maybe he doesn't trust the chairman because he can see things that we the fans can't.

No, he proved he could listen to advice on Moyes (fair play to him on that) but he also proved that big time financing and the running of a large scale sporting enterprise are quite different to the theatre and are well beyond his comfort zone.

I've worked on kenwrights theatre productions. Its close to slave labour how people are treated on those shows.

I dont know how to cut corners off a circle but kenwrights knows how too.

I dont know how hes got such a good public image. No body at ground level of theatre work has anything good to say about the man.

Roh oh.

Flogged Ritchie. We've spent 30 Mill on Maupay and McNeil, up to 35 on Onana. Nunes was 12 mill, and Diaz would of been in installments, though cant recall inital price reported. Thought books had to be balanced last summer with sales..

 

[maccavennie]

Roh oh.

Got no pennies in our Natwest piggy bank

 

[davek]

Niasse, £13.5m - left on a free

Lennon, £5m - sold for £1m

Mccarthy, £13m - sold for £2m

Tarashaj £4m - left on a free

Besic, £5m - left on a free

Kone, £6m - left on a free

Joel, £4m - left on a free

Mcgeady £2m, - sold for £200k

Let's be honest before Moshiri we were still crap at selling players.

Moyes was the last time we consistently made money on players and that had sod all to do with anyone but moyes.

We ended up with a net profit on Martinez's purchases.

Fact.

 

[Axlswhk]

Roh oh.

Getting depressing isn’t it. Schade is good.

 

[evertony]

Interesting.

Are you available this weekend and do you have your own boots?

Kev is in Australia doing some serious pondering. It could be on.

I have heard all about them mate, not good.

No this was last summer, for some odd reason it's been dragged up today that we didn't buy him last summer.
I see the point you are making though.

 

[MikeH72]

Roh oh.

At least we got our primary targets, McNeil and Maupay.

 

[Toff33Blues99]

How is he refusing to let the chairman run the club?

And if that was really happening, even a semi competent chairman would just walk in protest.

Simon Jordan explained that to you yesterday, a chairman has limited control until the owner goes over his head

 

[Tony’s Carp]

Roh oh.

Hmm, Schade is a loan with obligation so it's strange and worrying we couldn't go for him. If that's true of course.

 

[Simon Buttle]

Roh oh.

The good this is at least we are looking at some decent players for a change.
