and what does it matter anyway, if , as MR said with JM , he won't see the money from it ?
It keeps finding the club you idiot
It appears some seem to believe that a wealthy individual should put their money into a club and expect nothing back in return, and when it runs out they simply hand over the reins for someone else to do the same until their's runs out.
No they just believe after a decade of cost cutting and dropping the club to its lowest ever point we should be able to budget well enough to not rely on unexpected income to survive.
I'd expect that's all well and good if fans have no aspirations but to tread water in the lower leagues. The idiot Ranson persuaded SISU to takeover the club then came out with the add on that we would need to sell 25K+ tickets at the Ricoh to break even, or something like that. Nice to see that he'd done his research properly.
Only if they perform in the championship
Hats not his point. He’s saying use the players to get us into the championship and then they become £20m players

I've heard Derby don't have lots of money so maybe that's a factorSpoke to his best mate who I cornered for a chat this week because he obvs knows the lad well. And he says Tom loves it at Cov and is back in pre season, but nothing will happen for at least 2 weeks (no idea why) Tom's a Derby fan and he is being told that its going to be shed loads more than he is on - so his mate is of the opinion he will go.........but that's only his opinion of knowing how much Tom would want to play for Derby. We shall see.........he also didn't know if Derby had made any formal approach...so I'm still hoping his head is not turned.
Are we a Derby feeder club now?

We aren't going to let our best players go for peanuts
Apparently Lampard tried to get Dujon Sterling on loan but he came to us instead
Amazing really when you'd expect Lampard's Chelsea connection would have helped but Adi Viveash perhaps trumped that
They can draw up a budget that doesn't rely on players being sold im sure you lemon, but it would just be a shit budget that everyone would then moan aboutAs I said, I’d expect us to not have to rely on players being sold by third parties to make ends meet. If not that’s just piss poor budgeting.

Sisu do draw up a budget for a the season which is " x" amount but when things like Wembley the cup run and the Maddison situation come along surely although most of the money goes to clearing any debts we have . If M R and co don't see any being put into the team considering the hard work they have put in in getting the Maddison's and Bayliss's to be saleable players they will think is it worth the effort and may well move on and who would blame them .We must get a decent balance .
What has any of that got to do with where we are now? We have none of the financial commitments we did when Sisu first came. Everything we are is down to choices they made. The time for this kind of whataboutery has well passed. Even if you claim we need our own ground (and I don’t want to open that can of worms) they’ve had a decade to sort that out with no progress. Regardless of what you and Grendel think, they clearly don’t see it as as important as buying players.
As I said, I’d expect us to not have to rely on players being sold by third parties to make ends meet. If not that’s just piss poor budgeting.
Why the hell are we out there spending on the likes of Ogogo and Brown and pushing for promotion if we can’t even keep the lights on?
Are you happy that Sisu seem to be overspending in the hope of success? Wasn’t that the whole problem to start with?
You can’t have your cake and eat it.
Selling players is part of many clubs strategy for budgeting and long term financing
Reading comprehension issues still I see.
I said relying on third parties selling players.
You did not answer the part about getting some of the money raised going to Mark my post said" Decent balance" as for funding the club in future years first we get people saying we cannot spend beyond their means ( I agree) now you want to fund the future we need to fund the present I suppose you want the money from Mac to go to the future carry on and Mark and co will go . Tell us where that should go please?The money doesn’t go into paying any of the debts. It’s used to keep the club funded over future years which is what Anderson said when Maddison was sold.
The club is adequately set up for competent in this league but you only have to look at what other clubs like Bournemouth spent in the championship to see the cost of success there and likewise Aston Villa for the cost of failure if you don’t make it.
Wasn't it mark Robins who said he will be using some to get a replacement?You did not answer the part about getting some of the money raised going to Mark my post said" Decent balance" as for funding the club in future years first we get people saying we cannot spend beyond their means ( I agree) now you want to fund the future we need to fund the present I suppose you want the money from Mac to go to the future carry on and Mark and co will go .

In this instance I think he should get the full amount this is a situation that was not planned once again we are in the situation we were in the last relegation season goals go out the club and are not replaced and you and me know if you don't carry a threat the pressure is on.Wasn't it mark Robins who said he will be using some to get a replacement?

Grendal are you saying he should not get the full amount in this instance to spend on either transfer fees or wages to cover the loss of Marc or not?

M M B your saying player cost £500k would you need £700k may be. Your target may require bigger wages ie Mac Goldrick coming from a higher division if your target comes from a lower division ie Christian Diodge maybe you could get away with saving some money . Either way you have to find the goals left by Marc's departure . Surely in this case without overspending this needs to be done.
Forget the bitching.....is it likely we're going to lose Bayliss this window, to Derby or anywhere else, even if on a loanback deal?
If he signs a new contract he'll inevitably stay, but if a club comes in with the right bid then he'll inevitably go. Unfortunately this is a fans forum not a crystal ball so your guess is as good as ours.
