Silly Season January 2014

[davek]

This club is a shambles.

How can we be searching around for money for a forward when we're shipping one out for 7M and have the smmer surplus left over?

How?

Can always rely on davek to bring a thread back in order with a copy and paste.

Pretty sure he has these phrases set up as keyboard shortcuts

Because my point is incapable of challenge I understand why you didn't address it and chose instead to insult.

Classy.

I know some patience is required on our part here, but having Heitinga still here sucking up wages can't be helping matters at all in getting everything in motion.

The sooner he's shipped out the better. I'm effing narked he's still here, TBH.

Wasn't an insult pal. Find your posts funny tbh.

So if we buy the belg striker will you be taking back your posts?

 

[Foot Long Hot Dog]

We're not getting anyone in besides McGeady are we?

Another transfer window generating a surplus for Bill and his creative accounting team looking the overwhelming favourite outcome now.

He's going to do it again...he's going to crush all hope of another top finish and sicken another manager.

Seriously Dave, you need to stop spouting this line without any form of evidence to back it up. It's libellous & I'm sick to the back teeth of seeing it posted as if it has a basis in truth.

Bill's got the best accountants working for him don't you know? Pulls the wool over the auditors eyes every year. Don't know how they manage it but we're lucky to have them.

So EFC haven't generated a profit on player trading in every window going back a ways?

I must have missed all these invisible players we've bought.

You cant be seriously questioning the reality of the Other Operating Costs column in club accounts?

It's very real. Go and take a look how much it's swollen to.

Look, if you're trying to make a case that I'm wrong the onus falls on you to counter the undoubted numbers here that recur concerning money in from sales and money out on signings.

Then you'll have to factor in the enormous increase in tv cash that has now come into play.

When you do all that, come back and inform me - in your opinion - why we seem now to have hit a brick wall in signing a replacement for the departing Jelavic.

All of that legwork on your part would be infinitely more worthy than simply going to your default position of 'stop constantly coming up with this libelous assertion'. Libelous my arse: it's a simple fact = money in for the team is not being spent on the team.

This all day long this

 

[Coach]

You can still be libellous even if factually correct. It depends on how you put across the facts and whether or not you imply anything further. The overall tone of what you say is considered in defamation.

 

[ToffeeMark]

to be fair I think we're over due a 25 million pound striker

What we are due is an owner that has their head in the 21st century rather than planted firmly up their arse

 

[neil999]

basically if we dont spend about 25 mill this window, davek is correct...if we buy soemone for 5/6 mill adn a loan we will prob be happy, but it still wont be a net spend..
