Accidentally deleted it so carry on...

Very good player on his day

 

as are most in this division

 

 

anyway, one thing that caught my attention

 

middlesbrough able to pay over 3 million quid, without parachute money

 

their gates aren't a million miles from ours

 

lower wage bill?

I wouldn't say most but there's a few, like our Mark Davies for example and if the only time you see them is "those games".....

 

I was wondering about Boro. Did they get a few quid for Emnes?

 

Gibson doesn't seem the daft type....

Nixons tweet confirming if a fee agreed this should happen...

 

@reluctantnicko: Gibson due to call Gartside ... agent due to call Dougie ... Juke due to call Dougie ... Still waiting.

 

Also what he said if we don't get Juke..

 

@reluctantnicko: Would not want to be around your gaffer if Juke thing goes wrong ...

So

 

It looks from that like all parties are in on him wanting to join us

 

But he could end up at Burnley

 

So if it goes wrong and DF will be livid, what does that suggest is the plan here?

 

Is PG banking on Burnley not seeing the deal through?

What the fookin ell do Burnley want with him anyway??

 

They've already signed one championship duffer.

One theory is that Burnley are feigning a big interest in Juke to try & put pressure on their real target or the target's club ( maybe Deeney at Watford) Of course, this could be nothing but wishful thinking.

Wrong. He's having to wheel and deal now because he has less money in parachute payments and now has to work within FFP.

 

He has less money because he's spent most of it in failing to win promotion in either of the last two seasons. We threw a load of money at it last season in an attempt to get back before the reduced payments started.

we've failed to get promoted as the squad cnuto lumbered us with on prem money was full of gutless wankers

 

the squad the cnut said was 'the one he'd have wanted even if we hadn't been relegated'

I'm just from the school that believes you give managers 5 years before you can really judge them. Nowadays it is all about short term results. Even if we managed to get promoted last season, then what? Back to having to overpay for average players, hunt short term success with more money invested from ED? Personally I can stick with this division for a while if it means we improve our younger players and build a more stable club that isn't about chasing 17th in the premiership by investing in overrated players who we pay too much to.

 

This is his third season. That's not 'short term'. By now he should have assembled a team capable of competing at the top end of this league with the resources at his disposal.

 

You don't necessarily need to overpay for average players to survive in the Premier League. Swansea are one example.

 

What sort of crowds do you think we'll be getting after a few more seasons in the Championship? It's all very well for supporters to say that they don't mind if we're in this league for a while but if we don't go up sooner rather than later, gates will continue to drop.

The first season DF came in during October with the team in free fall. He got us to the fringe of the play offs using loans and a couple of shrewd signings in January. How that can be construed as his failure is a very skewed view.

There's no consolation prize for finishing on 'the fringe of the play-offs'.

Is there a consolation for not being relegated when that's where we were heading?

You are an idiot then because you won't acknowledge that when DF arrived we were in a mess. We were lucky not to go the same way as Wolves.

You are an idiot

That's really all you needed.

We were in a mess last season. After ten games we looked like we were heading the same way as Wolves. We were never out of the bottom half of the table. Was that all part of the grand plan?

You said DF had failed in two seasons. Why did you not just say last season if that is what you meant? It is pointless debating with someone like you as you cannot be reasoned with.

Fuck it he's earned ignore status now

good shout

 

how do i do it again?

I said he had failed to win promotion in either of the last two seasons. I said that because that's what i meant. You mentioned that he's rescued us in his first season. I pointed out that we were back in the shit after ten games last season. It's not that complicated unless you struggle with plain English.

That's really all you needed.

Yes I have just come to that conclusion. I don't know how you can become as blinkered as COYW.

One theory is that Burnley are feigning a big interest in Juke to try & put pressure on their real target or the target's club ( maybe Deeney at Watford) Of course, this could be nothing but wishful thinking.

 

Dyche has told the local press he wants the Juke and Deeney.

Top right, manage ignore preferences or something.

 

Stick them all in, makes WW a far better read.

cheers done

He has less money because he's spent most of it in failing to win promotion in either of the last two seasons. We threw a load of money at it last season in an attempt to get back before the reduced payments started.

You're really not grasping this FFP thing are you?

 

He could have saved every penny from last year, had it sat as cash in our bank, he still couldn't have spent it this year as our income has reduced and therefore out spending has to reduce to stay within the FFP loss limit.

 

Last summer is irrelevant. Let it go

He has less money because he's spent most of it in failing to win promotion in either of the last two seasons. We threw a load of money at it last season in an attempt to get back before the reduced payments started.

Read your opening sentence again. As I say you are totally blinkered. It must be an unhappy world that you live in.

City got fined for this FFP bollocks.

 

They're on the verge of paying £32m for another centre half to replace the £27m Klingon they've just released

 

Booooooooooooo! Gartside out.
