    Nombe at £1m when we already paid for May wasn't going to happen. 

    Time will tell if it turns out to be a good deal for him, disappointed we decided he wasn't worth it, but pointless debating that now
    Yep Kanu is the back up for May, new striker (if we get one) will be competition for Leaburn.

    Industrial action?

    I knew there was trouble brewing.
    Doris the Tea lady is one of them as she doesn't urn enough.
  • Two new strikers or a surprise Aneke appearance?

    WE didn't pay for May, a sponsor did apparently.
  • We do have some stupid wages on the payroll still, and Sandgaard did like to brag about our top 6 budget which assumedly went to wages, ahem, Aneke, Kirk Mc@Garrymanilow ,Too good for league one Hector etc. Them not wanting (being told they dont need to....) put any real money in might run it close..... or rather, close to the agreed budget...... 

    Still no excuse, at least twatgaard got that half right. 

    Has anyone actually worked out what would be our FFP constraints? 
    There are none as we do not work under ffp rules. That applies to the prem.
    If our owners say put £10 million in this season ad equity or a gift then that s included in turn over for the season . So they can have as large a wage bill as they like.

  • Don't panic people.

    There's still 2 months, 2 weeks, 2 days left of the window for us to make some signings........
    Yep there must still be some out of contract players knocking around with no pre season. Watch this space.

    And a broken leg.
  • Nombe sold to Rotherham for a fee of £1m.
    And instead of increasing our bid by £500k we spent it on compensation sacking our manager.

    Cool. 
    But if he could get a move into the Championship, he wouldn’t have joined us anyway.
    But was that interest there 2 months ago ?  Of course no-one knows but I doubt WE weren't interested in Tedic or Etete 2 months ago either.

    Get your business done early & get it done well.

    It was a mistake to offer new contracts to both Hector and Thomas, since at best they were both average last season, should have been one or the other. 
    “But they make good squad players, and providing Hector can stay fit, he’s far too good for this league.”

    We embarrass ourselves sometimes when it comes to how good/how much we accommodate some of the dross we’ve had over the last few years.  Payne was another one.  He definitely tried and put a shift in, but then we get people getting into this crazy logic about how we should’ve kept him because we’ve got no one else as a better option.  If they’re not good enough, they’re not good enough, regardless of their possible replacements.  

    I imagine other club’s fans do it as well, but never have I read so much when it comes to accommodating mediocrity as we do here 

    The old Aneke cheat code brigade will be warming up soon in anticipation of his next cameo before we don’t see him again until July 2024

    Probably Tedic. Etete played (and scored) for Cardiff on Tues evening so it wont be him. 
  • I mean Hector was very good last year, his form has fallen off a cliff but i wouldn't write him off yet.

    Cool, so he's illegally owned by a third party, and we'll be fined and deducted points, right?

    Yes, it's impossible to get from Birmingham (where Etete played) to London in 48 hours.

    No? The money wasn't in the "original" budget (which is tied to the tedious, pointless and frankly self damaging one-for-one "book balancing" we imposed on ourselves.) A bit of extra money came in courtesy of a sponsorship deal which was used for this deal.


    Allegedly.
