Why does it matter if pay transfer fees for players. Surely its better business getting good players for nothing than paying stupid fees?
@ Torchomatic....
Such a pity that SISU didn't do that(Give them a chance) with regards Westwood(When asking for a extention to his contract was treated like shit on the bottom of Boothroyds' shoe) Dann, and Fox(These two chaps look like they can play a bit let's sell them for as much as we can)....In short the common denominator with these players(Including Keogh and Gunnarsson) is........................................We actually PAID for these guys.......They weren't picked up from the bottom of the bargain bucket for nothing. These players were bought because we WANTED them.
Over to you....I'm sure you'll find something to have a go about!:slap:
yes theys hould have done this last year but now lets hopefully win a trophy for first time in over 20 years and get back to where we were with an increased chance of making the prem thereafter.
Just because there isnt a fee involved it doesnt mean we dont want them!
Champions league in 4 years
@ thechase......
The point is we paid transfer fees because we actually wanted these players in the first place. None of the current incoming players were wanted from day one. A "Nod and a wink" from Newcastles scout for Malaga, and Edjuguele in consolation for taking Bigi from us. I don't know about you, but would you not rather have the players that you wanted originally, than players who've languished in French reserve sides for three years? Just a thought!
kg82.........
So three years of reserve team football, isn't languishing then? makes them world beaters now does it?
I'm not saying they are crap, I'm saying I would sooner Thorn got the players he originally wanted. It's as though the players coming in now were an "After thought". Surely that's not that hard to comprehend.

@ ajsccfc....
With first team chances in short supply at Rangers, Fleck agreed to move to Sheffield United on a season long loan at the end of the summer transfer window[12] but the deal subsequently fell through as the paperwork was not completed before the deadline.[13]
Fleck signed for Championship club Blackpool on loan in January 2012, despite renewed interest from Sheffield United.[14][15]
In June 2012, Fleck lodged an objection against his contract being transferred from Rangers to a new company set up by Charles Green.[16] PFA Scotland had previously commented that players were entitled to become free agents if they objected to the transfer.[17]
[edit] Coventry City
On 4 July 2012, Fleck joined Football League One side Coventry City after he rejected his Rangers contract being taken over by Rangers Newco
Seems to me to be a Rangers reject!
With the amount of players we've bought so far, your statement looks even more ridiculous.
Yeah that's because we couldn't strengthen, if we could of bought players in does anyone think we would of stayed up?, anyways I hope this man u player has talent will be a good signing if we get him
We've signed a few freebies, but I'm not aware of us actually "buying" anybody. That's kinda his point! To "buy" someone, we would actually have to pay the club we are signing a player from some money. No chance!

I'm curious as to her looks,anyone ever seen a pic?

Edjenguélé began his career 1993 with CFF Paris and joined 2005 in the reserve team of Le Mans Union Club 72.[5] After three years with Le Mans UC 72 B who scored one goal in 58 appearances joined on 18 July 2008 to Neuchâtel Xamax. On 27 April 2010 his club confirmed his contract will not renewed and he left the club.[6]
On July 30, 2010, he signed with Panetolikos F.C..[7] He was an integral part of the squad that became 2010–11 Football League champions and led Panetolikos F.C. to the Greek Superleague. However, he couldn't help Panetolikos avoid relegation after the end of the 2011–12 Superleague Greece . Panetolikos and Edjenguélé parted ways on May 2, 2012. [8]
At the start of the 2012/13 season, Edjenguélé joined Coventry City on trial [9] and started in the 8-0 victory over Hinckley United on the 14th July 2012. He later signed for the club on the 17th of July on a three year contract
I stand corrected.....Edjenguele was NOT a reserve team player for three years in France............He was however a French reserve team player in Greece for five years with promotion to the first team with 46 Squad apps over two years in a team that were promoted then immediately relegated........So I suppose he was a "Top league squad player" for one season
they may be free transfers but we have paid signing on fees, agent fees etc.... so money has been spent (as well as half a million quid on the academy) but there arent many league 1 clubs spending any money, clubs are having to tighten their belts due to the new financial rules and i think that we have done pretty well this transfer window.
i for one am really excitied about seeing and supporting the new players against yeovil
Yes but my point is entirely:
Out
Turner-750k
Gael-1m?
Keogh-750k?
Lukas-1.5m
Wood-???
In
Cody-200k?
I don't know what everyone is going on about agents&signing on fees for,everyone does it,what's the big deal?
and that's very true but we are loosing apparently 500k a month so that has to be covered somehow and unfortunatly the only asset we have are players
player sales + free transfers = us having a club to support.... its not the way that any of us want it to be but it is the reality due to sisu and the previous owners.
It's the ever diminishing return that means that this is a business plan guaranteed to entrench us in a downward spiral financially. Do you honesty see a sustainable future for CCFC as a L1 club, long term? Do you not think that our best chance of getting up is this season? Getting up would be the only way to help us financially. And that a reasonable "bounce-back" budget-which I don't believe we have-would be a sound investment?
SISU are carrying on stripping us bare and not adequately replacing quality. I think we're so used to failure we've been brainwashed into acceptance.
By only shopping in the Bargain Basement, ie freebies that clubs with money don't want, we are guaranteed to be signing quite a few duds. That in turn does a lot nore financial damage, as you are stuck with rubbish players on long deals.
Cairo looked good in pre-season: who's to say that the Frenchmen won't end up being just as big a flop? There's space for a few of these players, but not an entire squad made up of free transfers and youth players. Even our loans are other peoples youngsters. I don't think that will get us up. And that means next season we'll be much weaker still, financially and on the pitch.
