You're plucking numbers out of thin air. £500k for Tavares says it all.

£1m Tavares???

I'm pretty intrigued to learn how he arrived at £4m as a valuation for the rest of the squad as well.

Or Josh Bowler who is valued at £800k when Blackpool turned down bids of £2m for him in January. No doubt his stock has risen significantly since then as well. The fact they suggest Birmingham's squad value is in the top 10 is comical.

He won't. He knows full well he couldn't take on NATO, as do his generals, and more importantly there's no strategic reasoning for invading a NATO member.

Well there isn't a chance because he isn't an oligarch.

Ah sorry I misunderstood. Not sure why it wouldn't have just been announced like the Sheaf deal was if that were the case.

Very much doubt that was the case given he has an extra year's option at Chelsea, which I think they probably would've activated (bit up in the air now admittedly). They're renowned for trying to hold onto graduates as long as possible in order to try and get fees for them - whether that be...

I'd obviously want to bring on the players that would give us the best chance of winning. But if the management team decide that's Waghorn over Tavares for instance how can we actually question that when the latter hasn't even played the equivalent of a full half yet?

No one has really said they dislike him have they? IMO I just think we've been at this juncture before with regards to overhyping U23 players. I think if anything what's probably more strange is the sheer obsession with Tavares / the constant second guessing of Robins for not giving him 5...

Hospitality. Maybe I'm just in a bad spot as to be fair it is usually the same few that let rip week in week out. Perhaps I'm sat next to Sheaf is God and his brigade.

I think it depends where you sit. He'll get vocal support from the singers corner perhaps, but where I sit he gets dogs abuse whenever he misses a chance or fails to get a shot away. First half yesterday was the worst I've heard it. That being said there clearly was a huge sigh of relief from...

Predominantly their owner, along with parachute payments and through player sales. The latter two will probably only get far as coming down from the PL they still owed £80m in transfer instalments from previous player purchases. Equally, during their last PL campaign they lost £60m pre-tax. I...

Depends what grade it is. Hamstring injuries can vary from a few days to months depending on the severity.

Their away form recently has been solid. It's at home where they struggle.

Moore: 6.5 - Didn't think he was at his best yesterday. Dabo: 7 - Thought he was OK, maybe a little chaotic at times with his positioning and when on the ball. Made a couple of surging runs though and managed to put a few balls into the box. Rose: 8 - Actually thought he was much better...

Did I even say just give them two years? Fair enough if you don’t agree but at least make your responses coherent with what I’ve said…. Also just for reference Barnsley, who have also previously tried to recruit talent from abroad, brought in Marcel Ritzmaier, Michael Sollbauer, Samuel...

Well I'm not saying that am I. Criticising Robins and the backroom staff for a problem area that should perhaps be looked at more closely isn't synonymous with wanting him sacked. That's the same idiotic rhetoric used by fans who bemoaned others for questioning his logic when bringing Bright...

But you must at least agree it’s strange that the club offer similar length contracts to higher-risk signings such as Hilssner and Dacosta, as they do to players they invest heavily in such as Hamer and Gyokeres. Does that not at the very least suggest there’s no real strategy or risk mitigation...

Kelly, Jones and the season before last and somewhat prematurely, Mason. What so your logic is high-risk signings, who no one else wants, should be put on 3 year contracts on the off chance they might come off? Ridiculous.
