Rizlar Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 TBH think these wage figures are correct but would imagine most of the players will want out anyway so don't think the wage bill will be anywhere near we imagine. Quote

ex_midlandwhite Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 So, if these are true Lennon bust his budget on Amos and Madine, explains why Alf was not possible. Quote
gonzo Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Heard from a completely reliable source today that the rumour about spearing not playing due to appearance bonuses in his contract is 100% true. Quote
Traf Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 £3k a game appearance money, plus win bonuses = £3k a game Quote
Site Supporter HomerJay Posted February 29, 2016 Site Supporter Posted February 29, 2016 I'd like to see figure from other clubs. How does any club survive and compete in this league? Quote
birch-chorley Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 I've heard that a lot of the players signed in the summer were on small basics and appearance money - thus him not being able to play them and them agreeing to move on Ie Casado, Prince etc Quote
Sweep Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 I'd like to see figure from other clubs. How does any club survive and compete in this league? either by getting more income.....or paying vastly smaller wages........or simply by spiralling further and further into debt. I'm sure in the next few years there will be a lot more teams in the shit as much as we are, especially those who gamble on going straight back up as we did Quote
Site Supporter HomerJay Posted February 29, 2016 Site Supporter Posted February 29, 2016 Yes I know the answers, but I'd like to see evidence of such. Quote
Arrested development Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 I'm not having Feeney is on 17K a week. We signed him on a free from millwall, and he wasn't even playing that much for them. Quote
Eavesy Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Who did we last sell for £5m I doubt the money generated in the last 4 years comes to £5m Exactly the frigging problem. We needed a palacios, a Valencia, a roque Santa Cruz, a David Bentley Quote
ianovit Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 I agree with Arrested Developement on Feeney but didnt Bogdan turn down 18k a week? In which the case the figure quoted for Amos could be correct? Possibly influenced by the potential to sell him for a tidy sum later. Sadly given the number of bollocks he has dropped and his outrageous wages doubt we could unload him. Quote
Farrelli Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 And 3-4 out of those 5 play week-in-week-out and so couldn't have been replaced without negatively impacting the team. What exactly is the point you're trying to make here? Since you ask, I'll elaborate. Heskey and derik have played less than 20 games between them so definitely not the backbone of the team as you infer. Amos and Pratley should not have been offered those wages. A cheaper goalie would have had to do. Overall, our dealings in the transfer market last Summer was terrible. Quote
Sweep Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Overall, our dealings in the transfer market last Summer was terrible. I think everybody will agree with that, even with a "limited" budget I'm sure better players than the current lot could have been found. Lennon's scouts want sacking as well as Lennon himself Quote
Mounts Kipper Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Exactly the frigging problem. We needed a palacios, a Valencia, a roque Santa Cruz, a David Bentley Sad that we lost Holden and Muamba those 2 would have been worth over 10 million. We've been poorly run but we've also had rotten luck. Quote
little whitt Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 none of the fuckers are getting a WIN bones that's for sure Quote

onlyoneawalker Posted February 29, 2016 Author Posted February 29, 2016 (edited) The article in the sun is absolute bollox - Derik £10k a week my fucking arse. The league are just covering their arse to avoid getting further questioning over how much scrutiny they put on the deal after big question marks over other deals they ok'd - if there isn't enough cash in the deal to see us thru a few seasons in league one then what in fucks name have they spent the last 4 months fretting over in many ways football is dead easy to budget for income or minimum income fairly easily predicted and expenditure an almost certainty - if there are genuine question marks the birch and davies want carting off to the nut house as they obviously gone bonkers having been previously accepted business men and I'd be glad if it's doomed to fail pull the plug now but it's not its politics arse covering not financial question marks Edited February 29, 2016 by onlyoneawalker Quote

gonzo Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 it's not its politics arse covering not financial marks Did you read the judges comments from the high court the other day? Quote
onlyoneawalker Posted February 29, 2016 Author Posted February 29, 2016 I nearly passed out from lack of oxygen reading that. Hahaha sorry I was on a roll - didn't read the judges comments but I'd assumed the adjournment meant they had seen something they thought was credible? Quote
scoobydoo Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 £14k for the keeper I wonder how much we could of got jussi for? Give him the chance to work with his son everyday He's on 4K at wiggin . Quote
DomRepWanderer Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 He's on 4K at wiggin . You know that how? but if true then it's a no brainer that he would have been a better bet than Amos, but hindsight is a wonderful thing, still wouldn't trust Lennon to get transfer targets right though, he's proved to me that he hasn't a fucking clue in the transfer market Quote
gonzo Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Hahaha sorry I was on a roll - didn't read the judges comments but I'd assumed the adjournment meant they had seen something they thought was credible? I read it as he was less than convinced and the adjournment is more of a stay of execution. Couldn't have been clearer there's a lot of shit needs sorting out pretty quick or it will hit the fan big style. Quote
