Do we even have any money to spend?

 

May aswell keep the embargo and sign players on a free and loans.

 

Can't pay loan fees or have more than 23 players registered under terms of embargo. Also seen it claimed we have a strict wage cap imposed on us until it is lifted.

He does like the attention don't he ?

 

Ignores any questions about the embargo though.

 

Having said that feels like we have wheeler dealers involved in club now rather than the amateurs who were doing deals in recent years.

 

I'm thinking he's also trying to raise profile of the club and try to put some positivity into the club, he keeps the momentum of the club on an upward curve and he and his dad will benefit as long as its good for us I'm happy.

But he's talking mainly to kids on social media, who when next season things get a bit tough will be the ones slagging the club off at every opportunity. I don't mind him interacting on there but as above he ignores the big issues like questions over the accounts and embargo - I mean I get why, but it does make it a bit superficial.

You really think he's ever going to comment on things that are going through a legal process?

Also he is an agent - his Dad may own the club, but its not down to his son to talk about submitting accounts and clearing the embargo

 

As you said earlier - he has been pretty accurate on reporting new signings - which is what his job is

Ameobi heading our way apparently. Lad I know works at hearts as a development team coach and says Ian Cathro wanted to sign him as he used to be at Newcastle with him and apparently it was a non starter as he's going to Bolton

 

Whether it's true or not I've no idea but no reason to disbelieve him.

 

Also hearts wouldn't be paying big money at all wage wise so the fact they wanted him and thought it possible would suggest that his salary demands maybe aren't as big as you would think

Hope so. Believe it when I see it though.

And why should he answer any questions about the embargo and the accounts? He's not the chairman.

 

Can we start asking you about your Dad's work?

if ameobi signed is he capable of playing the right wing back role? (his defence improved a lot just before he left)

 

Assuming it's 352 again that could allow morais to play centrally.

Not saying he should at all. Not even bothered with what he tweets, just that he seems to enjoy being second guessed over cryptic tweets and such. All a bit of fun, but I'd not say it is a meaningful communication between fans and the club at this stage.

Im not sure Morais would benefit playing centrally, isn't his main asset taking on full backs and whipping great crosses in?

He came inside for a short time v Oldham and bury iirc.

 

It didn't work.

Communication under the rule of ken is a million times better than it's ever been I would say. Whether lee andersons tweets are cryptic or not it serves a purpose and brings people closer to the club. Carry on in my opinion

No problem........we just tell everybody that we're going to pay by taxing the rich.

If nothing else the speculation breaks up the monotony of the close season.

I can't think of a worse idea than putting our best crosser of the ball in the middle.

I think we've got a bit of a dilemma on our hands formation wise, no left wingers, centermids aren't strong enough to play in a two and no striker capable of playing upfront on his own

 

We have to play 3-5-2 on current squad makeup but we definitely need a lot more depth.

 

Howard

 

New CB, Wheater, Beevers

 

Little, Karacan, Spearing?, Vela, Taylor

 

ALF, Madine

 

Bit ropey that for me at the minute.

As soon as a bit of business gets done at Wanderers, LA must be bouncing around going "oh please can I put something cryptic on twitter? Please please please?"
