Yep, something special needs to happen.

If he didn't think he would get anybody in, I doubt he would be here.

What has this Anderson geezer achieved since he joined, & what re-investment have we seen ref the Maddison deal;
Maybe the money for RV is to fund the new commercial directors wages

Something special is happening, but not in a good way.

So what is he selling, it can't be anchored on good Football with a competitive team.

The Maddison money will be paid over several years in instalments.

Yawn.

If you look at games played you get a better context. Really the big losses are Martin, Fleck, Vincelot, Armstrong and Murphy, arguably Maddison.

Armstrong and Murphy were always going back. Suspect Gadzhev came in with an eye on Fleck leaving. So in reality we need to replace Martin, Vincelot and two loan players in Armstrong and Murphy. The rest aren't so important other than needing squad depth.

Would it be better if Fleck, Vince and Martin had stayed? Of course but I don't think we should get too carried away just yet. Wait and see what happens in the next few weeks before the window shuts.

Come on Gren, you cant keep making excuses for the decline of club and squad, the justification to sell him was to reinvest in the squad and to build a foundation going forward. They since then have sold the young lad to Everton where has that money gone. I don't have the same belief system as you in regards to what are owners are saying and doing, if TM had come out the day Maddison was sold and said no money from it she has it, what would of been the reaction. Because if i remember Anderson done that statement and TM spoke the day after stating it was out of his and maddison hands.

They are bullshitters and have no idea about what they are doing which is what MV has been pulled up to the board, this will not get better any time soon, we are running to stand still.

We need 2 or 3 over the line this week now.
