Casually dropping that Hamer info ?! For what its worth - hes not what we need.Nope other than we have approached Sheffield United and Hamer a week or so back. Fuck knows where were at with it but id imagine if it was a goer there would have been a lot more noise
And we are still working on getting a CM in few irons in the fire but we cant offer the wages of others
Didn't you watch us then under our previous owners, fuck me we had serious financial problems?Id rather watch a club with no financial problems than overspend on players
‘Loves the club’ but will move abroad
Hamer hopefully
I am deeply fed up with the sheer hypocricy
money flowing into Birmingham (who bailed us out)
shit loads of money is far more important
Isn't it "football" revenue so they are trying to stop creative accounting such as Chelsea selling real estate to other companies with the same owners?situations you've imagined in your head mean other people are hypocrites? bit of a stretch, innit.
think you need to look up 'bail out' because I don't think it means charging a f*ck tonne of rent.
all evidence says wages make the most difference so with the SCR rules, revenue is what'll matter.

You clearly want us to spend more than we can afford. If we overpay on one player then the rest of the squad want pay rises and it spirals from there.Didn't you watch us under our previous owners, fuck me we had serious financial problems?

Probably more ‘afford’ to be fair. Increased attendances and merch sales all help, but it’s a drop in the ocean compared to parachute money.Afford or want too?
Both of those owners have artificially inflated the market by throwing money at it, and thus denying clubs run on a more sustainable footing the opportunity. Owners pouring unlimited funds into clubs is just financial doping.I am deeply fed up with the sheer hypocricy of people complaining about the money flowing into Birmingham (who bailed us out) or Wrexham (delete where applicable) when we all know we would love either of their owners to take us over. Both those owners have considerably deeper pockets than DK and it is patently obvious that shit loads of money is far more important to success than even the best manager.* DK has enabled us to get forward, but if you want regular Prem football you need a moneybags. Please see Ipswich, Nottingham Forest and Sunderland passim
* There has also been some recent search that indicates that the quality of the manager is not a key variable to success - See Liam Manning and Thomas Frank for recent examples
But they play Hamer mostly as a wider attacker, he won't be replacing him.
The thing is it’s not just ‘Rob and Ryan’ as they also have other investors and particularly the Allyn Family who now own a 15% stake in the club.I guess a lot of their revenue comes from the outside of the football stuff. So their main task will be staying relevant to keep that coming in. How long will foreign audiences remain engaged with it all? That's not a question btw, i don't expect you to know the answer, but that will be the challenge.
Are you comfortable with Leicester breaking the rules then?I am deeply fed up with the sheer hypocricy of people complaining about the money flowing into Birmingham (who bailed us out) or Wrexham (delete where applicable) when we all know we would love either of their owners to take us over.

Well you seem to be against the idea of keeping the purse strings tight. Suggesting you want us to pay more than we can affordAfford or want too?
The other investors are irrelevant to what I am saying. Im talking about revenue. They are a small club, they need to remain relevant with foreign audiences which is where they get their most of their money from.The thing is it’s not just ‘Rob and Ryan’ as they also have other investors and particularly the Allyn Family who now own a 15% stake in the club.
Google them and it’s fair to say they have a few quid floating around.
Could this be linked to an incoming?Couple days old apologies if it’s been covered

Do we need to kill all the others then?Nope other than we have approached Sheffield United and Hamer a week or so back. Fuck knows where were at with it but id imagine if it was a goer there would have been a lot more noise

Tbf there are lots of incredibly wealthy people that have completely ballsed things up when it comes to running a football club.But they will be able to drive this revenue through other means and it’s not just the Hollywood boys propping this up.
I would if their new stand, for instance, will attract a ‘named’ sponsor which will help even out some of their FFP? (Not sure if this is even allowed?).
My point really is that when you bring in billionaires into a business they are not just bringing their wealth, they are bringing their portfolio and contacts with them as well and as we’ve seen with Man City and the lack of action against their charges that unfortunately money talks.
True.Tbf there are lots of incredibly wealthy people that have completely ballsed things up when it comes to running a football club.
Robert Lewandowski?? Fuck my life Doug, you've outdone yourself on this one!Couple days old apologies if it’s been covered
I feel the same another quality midfielder and strengthen defence probably LB this should be enough. I don't care what opposition fans think there's no other side with an attacking threat like ours it's ridiculous. Our midfield is definitely up there with the best and with another quality addition like say Hamer or Onyeka it would be. Our obvious weakness is defence but I don't think it's down to personal I think it's down to the tactics and how high the back line sits. Milan and JDS are constantly getting caught out almost in a winger position. It's risk and reward which has served us well and made us the most ruthless attack but I just think a tweak pushing the defence back a bit further and not be so Gung-ho would help us tightening up. Look at Ipswich they score a decent amount of goals but don't concede certainly lately and that's what will win them the title IMO. Watching Boro last night I wasn't overly impressed again and their defence looks suspect so if we tighten up we'll secure automatics.10 wins out of 18 gets us up, that’s how close we are, go and get hamer if there’s a chance, that pretty much gives us the squad to do it, best front line/midfield in the league already and he’ll make it even better,
Depends on the quality of babes,, guaranteed in Wrexham, not so much in Sarf landon.Am apartment in London or a bedsit in Wrexham. There's a dilemma
missed our main target? really? any ideas who
Believe we tried in the summer too.I found it quite surprising that we approached Hamer (not suggesting Saddle made it up, it just seems a bit wild). If that is indeed true, then I guess it is probably him isn't it?
He made missing our main target and approaching Hamer sound like separate things.I found it quite surprising that we approached Hamer (not suggesting Saddle made it up, it just seems a bit wild). If that is indeed true, then I guess it is probably him isn't it?
Fucking hell there’s actually something to the Hamer rumour?Nope other than we have approached Sheffield United and Hamer a week or so back. Fuck knows where were at with it but id imagine if it was a goer there would have been a lot more noise

I think a fit Hamer would actually be the perfect signing for us, can play any of the 3 positions in our midfield. And less risk than someone new to the club.Casually dropping that Hamer info ?! For what its worth - hes not what we need.
