you raise a good point with systems. Robins has adopted multiple over the years - 4-2-3-1, 4-3-3, 5-3-2, 5-4-1. And switched from possession based to counter attacking more recently. Confident he'll crack the code in terms of players and the right system to play. But they have to replace any...

Wish the guy success in the future - can't have been easy moving to a new country, picking up covid and then a long-term injury. Shame it didn't work out for either side.

why? I think they're wrestling with the profiles they want and knowing that come the summer they will have a recruitment team with their feet under the table. We're loaning players from Arsenal and Man City - and they should add to the squad. Plus a centre-half who sold for £2mn last summer...

Yes, he's Faversham way

They probably haven't got the right people in the right roles. Marketing means PR, CRM, customer engagement, customer acquisition, content creation, brand 'positioning' and even partnerships/partner activity. Re comms - it's actually really easy to scale that with relatively few people these...

had you heard of todd boehly before his name was associated with Chelsea? Seems a strange (and probably quite limiting) criteria

one is more likely to occur than the other

The Derby guy's 'finances' were built on a crypto house of cards. Doug: Commodity Trader King Eyes $200 Oil After Record Hedge Fund Gain

They've currently got the most valuable squad in decades - they just haven't sold anyone for a while

He's going to leave at some point. Just a question of when.

Surely the only measure of effective budget use is progress? Which we've done for 5 years now. We still have one of the lowest budgets in the league....and are a few points off the playoffs.

We're talking about getting rid of two loan players who have contributed to some of the best defensive stats in the league? You'll get inconsistency from younger players (and yesterday was unacceptable) but let's not over-react (hard for this forum I know). There are fringe players who need to...

he literally said at the end 'this one is on me'

It's more telling what isn't being said

That is a viable option short-term for sure

not true

I believe there are interested parties - likely now a game of brinkmanship to see who moves first. Only three home games to host before the World Cup which I'm pretty sure they can organise....I think if a buyer isn't found by Monday the Council steps in to manage (as freeholder) until a deal is...

Dabo is having an absolute stinker. McFadzean looks all over the place too.
