Why don't you just put your money where your mouth is and stop trying to destroy this great club of ours? No more lies, shape up or ship out to somebody that actually might care about us

Yeah! I'd expect at least a few million a year from our owners! An one of the most competitive wage budgets in the league! And I'd expect a decent replacement if we can't keep McGoldrick! And they should appoint a decent manager!

Oh....Wait....

Were the biggest club in the league so having the biggest wage budget shouldn't even be an issue,we shouldn't even be in this shite league.

You could put in a good argument to suggest Sheff U are a bigger club than CCFC.

On history, PNE shit on this league, but they had their success pre WW2 so they can fuck off.

We do top the league on 'pedigree', for what it's worth! Which is not much

We're a simply massive club. Far too big for this league....even the PS would struggle with our enormous value, status and waistline.
A new intergalactic cup should be designed just for us where our delusions can be accommodated in the parallel universe cup. We'd walk it

If only it was that simple. Have you prepared for the end of the honeymoon period under the current manager? Law of averages and lack of investment say it will happen then we can blame him instead of sisu ?

Lack of investment!? We've probably spent more than most teams. We haven't even signed McG and we've got a replacement. Stupid comment.

I do blame SISU, or their Catspaws, such as Ray 'debt free' Ranson for employing managers such as Coleman who had a lot of investment wasted for no improvement.

If you think I'm a SISU apologist, you haven't seen my posts over the last 5 years.

100k, but we can't spend much, and a small, unknown, fee for Fleck.

We spent 500k on Cody, 1.25 on Eastwood, spending money isn't the be all and end all.

How many players have we signed, 15-16?

How? Isn't about how much you spend, it's about quality of players brought in, which they have allowed he managers to do this season.

You can't build a stable team on loan players for obvious reasons and when we do find a diamond in mg lack of investment means he I'll be off in January.

Stupid would be thinking that all the players in the squad are playing for the love of it and don't need paying.

Of course you could have a squad allowance of 5 million a year, spend 4 mill on on one player who you pay a million to and hope that he is really, really good.

Quite right that about can't build a stable team on loan players, but loads squeal about SISU not spending money on loan players when we don't get any in.

Of course if we didn't have any loan players then we wouldn't have had the "diamond" playing for us at all, and it looks like the loan player is being replaced by a permanent signing with a similar goal scoring record at this level.

Do you have a point at all?

He didn't get off to a blistering start to be fair which was predominantly down to the crap he inherited.

No one expected McG to be as good as he has been, NO ONE! Also, you're assuming he's gone, which he hasn't - yet. Bailey and Adams have been signed by a manager who came in after the transfer window, and I'd say there's a good chance we'll extend their loans and a chance of us making the deals permanent if we get promoted.

I think you should look at the failures as Thorn to bring in players to bring in players in positions where MR has.

McG would be wonderful but Clarke seems set to be his replacement. We have signed an awful lot of loanees so I hope we tie some of them down.

At least there's only 2 after McG, all have a good chance of resigning IMO.

I said I was resigned to McG leaving, however, there's still a chance, but at least Clarke is a good replacement, 11 in 15 for a team 23rd, we can't really get better.
