I've replaced all the slot screws in my house with phillips.

But they're arguably taking a massive risk doing so. Although I was pleased for them getting promoted, now I'd really like to see the get relegated having spent all this money just to see what situation they find themselves in.

Given the energy problems we face you could almost understand the cap being almost trebled in a year. If it weren't for the fact that the energy companies are posting record profits. If the price was such a problem at best profits would be static. Considering the aim of the cap is supposed to...

Also the make up of Gareth Southgate's WC squad.

It's possible, but it's also possible they made another enquiry to check the lay of the land. We knew we've had an almost perfect storm of issues thanks to no home games and likely funding the pitch repairs so I'm sure members of rivals in the same business would be aware of our situation...

As I've said before there's no benefit from doing so. It's swings and roundabouts. If they take that money now the offers they get for the club will be lowered. It could end up losing more value than they get if the team plays poorly, attendances decrease and especially if relegation were to...

It just seems like there's no joined up thinking and every decision is made based on short term ideas. I accept that SISU may not be able to use investment funds for the club if it's investors refuse, but it seems like they take small sums of cash which will end up costing us (and therefore...

We've had things happen that are largely out of our control. O'Hare's injury, the pitch needing to be relaid and matches postponed meaning income has been deferred. My preferred order if we had to make a sale would've been: 1. Hamer for £4--5m + add-ons. Would miss his creativity but he's...

To be fair most did add the caveat of as it stands, and saying if we didn't sell anyone. As at this moment that's still true but looks almost certain to change in the next few days.

Millwall were once top of the league in December and ended up getting relegated. Doesn't mean anything. Our situation will be different to everyone else and we couldn't be more different to Forest. They were given money to sign players. If anything we'll be seeing more leaving.

Erm...so what's the point of this thread then?

And the Tory party could become considerate and altruistic while Scarlett Johansson could declare her undying love for me. There's positivity and then there's delusional optimism.

Agree entirely. If the Hyam sale was for say £3m and meant that our expenses were covered and didn't have to sell anyone else, the I could at least understand the thinking, even if I do think it leaves us weak defensively and we'd need to make a signing anyway. If it doesn't do that, then what...

Yep. Investment is putting the money in and getting a return from improved performances brought about by that funding. Loans is getting a return regardless. Hence why they prefer it like that.

Not sure whether to swap Moore for Wilson. If he made another error having a larger home crowd on his back could be horrendous. I'd bring Hamer back in for Allen. Going by their results so far 0-0. Going by ours 3-2 either way. Though given how we usually play against them most probably to them.

But it's swings and roundabouts. If they take sell the player and the team performs poorly then the price people are willing to pay for the club goes down. It's a nonsensical thing to do.

That's a potential, problem in itself. Just a month ago we were thinking if we can consolidate or improve again this season, there will be a lot of squad turnover in the summer and we could look to build again, As things stand we look like we're going to regress and that will make replacing...

None of the money we get for Hyam will be being used to bring players in. If we're lucky he'll be allowed to use the wages on a loan, but don't count on it.

Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

We might have had this sorted years and years ago if we hadn't had governments that prioritised the profits of oil and gas companies over environmental impact and energy independence.
