so just to confirm, was there any breaking news or not

stop worrying about facts. If we miss out on a player it's because our owners are the worst every and no matter what they should let no figure stand in the way of securing only the best services for our club. You know, "invest" ;) That said, if they do that and we end up getting said player...

Its a nice looking shirt. Not really a Cov City looking shirt mind, but I think the players with the full kit on will still look sky blue with shorts and socks etc. I like mixing it up a bit. As long as it doesnt become the norm. Embrace some change once in a while you old farts

quality mate, cracked me up

You've literally just made that up out of thin air haven't you? You should get a job at the CET

It's idealistic. Well firstly all of the decent players would go abroad. Secondly, if we were to assume it was somehow a global phenomenon, there would be less would-be players choosing to dedicate their life to trying to be successful in the sport, as the opportunity cost is lower to go for a...

Hmmm. Sorry mate, I get where you're coming from but the TV rights money just proves that they're actually earning what they're worth in the market for the most part. Capping wages would destroy the game. It certainly wouldn't be the same quality we see it as now. Maybe something can be done...

Really struggling to understand then. Tony seems to be implying that it's only SISU's incompetence that resulted in their initial investment being ineffective, because they invested in the wrong way. My point is that there are so many clubs spunking money away on the off chance that they get in...

Right, so every single club who have invested heavily and not made the promised land have made poor investment decisions? Hindsight is a wonderful thing. 3 people can get promoted, 3 people get relegated (championship). There are more clubs with owners investing money hoping they hit the big...

Did you read anything anyone said relating to that post you quoted? If you look at Bournemouth alone then yes it's a fantastic idea to inject ~£50 million into a club over a few years. If you look at it as a whole its a pretty shitty "investment", which is why it's a stupid thing to moan about...

As Stutpot said, for every bournmouth there are many more who have pissed it away and either got in big trouble financially, or have rich owners willing to incur the losses on the off chance that they hit the jackpot. Statistically it's not a good investment. If you were to ask me which method...

Please can you define investment? Because I'm not sure you really mean investment, I think you mean pissing money away on a football club? You know they are different right? Have you seen the club accounts? We make a loss every year. So what hard earned cash are you referring to? Please answer...

You know what's scary, I think the clowns who blame SISU for everything but the weather actually believe what they are saying.... Like, before I thought it was just a go-to move because it was easy and everyone hates them. But people actually believe the crap that comes out of their mouths....

I know this sounds silly at first, so bear with me! But I couldn't help but think when we were on fire in those first 3 months, and Armstrong was on fire, that a lot of our goals were from quite far out, outside the box, or keeper could have maybe done better. I remember Fleck scoring a couple...

Another straw man argument from yourself, why even bother. Good talk.

Nah doesn't count mate, shopping just buys itself according to this lot. Unless it buys you another shiny new (more expensive to "show ambition") car, it's been stolen and used to buy champagne for the owners.

You miss my point. It was a championship team, who therefore have more leverage in a transfer negotiation than a League one team. I agree they overpaid for him.

Wasn't he technically in a championship team when they bought him?
