The one who went to city aswell i cant remember his name (unless he was free)
They pinched Emilio Lawrence & Jayden Lienou mate in the last couple of years mate, not sure if we got fees or think they were pinched before they became pros.

Emilio was the one i was thinking of, would we of got the compo fee for them moving?They pinched Emilio Lawrence & Jayden Lienou mate, not sure if we got fees or think they were pinched before they became pros.
We had the funds for elanga...he just didn't fancy us. And this is where for me thelwell is not the solution. He has an eye for a player, i am sure he is very good in working through the details, but in his main job in selling a project, a long term plan to convince those players to join us, he isn't doing very well. Yes he has worked in difficult conditions, but with the new stadium, it should be an easier sell to get those players on board.we were also interested in MGW and Elanga but didn't have the funds, both have now done well at Forest.
"alright lads, fancy joining a continually relegation threatened club, with loads of aging players, loads of PSR problems and a manager who thinks grinding out draws is the best the club can hope for. Oh and the football you'll play will be atrocious.....lads?!?!"We had the funds for elanga...he just didn't fancy us. And this is where for me thelwell is not the solution.

We had the funds for elanga...in fact he was very close in joining us. It was a dirt cheap deal too that would have been perfect for us. Managers come and go, especially at everton...not so much dof. Managers main responsibility is what's happening on the pitch. Dof have more of a broader role, overall strategy and plan making sure the club is in a upward trajectory. Dof can make a call on replacing the manager alongside owners if manager is not performing etc...Christ we had Dyche & zero funds. It’s not just on the DOF to sell the club, it’s on the manager & CEO as well. It’s a team effort. We’ve had the most uninspiring managers since he’s been here & no CEO.
You think Thelwell should be replaced because Antony Elanga didn't fancy joining us?We had the funds for elanga...in fact he was very close in joining us.

There hasn't been a long term project to sell since Ancelotti left, even that was debatable. We're still working window to window, hopefully until this summer.
we literally had a point deduction. bet every agent said to stay away from that stressWe had the funds for elanga...in fact he was very close in joining us.

Forgot that we still have a good few fans that absolutely love thelwell and workship him like he was the second coming...believe my friend...one day the miracle will happen.You think Thelwell should be replaced because Antony Elanga didn't fancy joining us?

Nice to see people come around to the reality of the job he has done for us.
