  1. Could of been worse under todays rules he'd of gone for free as was out of contract. But was scandalous my fav player at the time going to the club I despised the most
  2. It's one why the premier league can increase revenue......bottom 2 divisions go bang ....premier league 2 and possible franchise..arm chair fans all over the country paying to watch their team of choice or who ever is winning
  3. You could argue AL was manager when Bunn was here and definitely was when Wild was in charge
  4. The Paul Scholes affect....we dont want to be waisting his reputation.
  5. We have been tin pot for 20 years and now its caught up with us. As with life everyone wants stuff now and we've been starved of any success since 94 then when we get the slight chink we are on the up there is a mass euphoria and when it doesnt materialise there is a mass over reaction. The hope is killing our fans patients which sometime gives a really negative boundary park. The wrong people are getting the flack and expected to turn things round overnight. Failure is not in Paul Scholes DNA but hes not had the best of starts but hes not took over the best of teams my worry is I think we will lose possible the biggest positive we have had for a long time due to not being given the time either by chairman or fans. I believe there are some lucrative sponsorship deals in the wings when others run out on the back of PS appointment and believe now we see this season out and PS gets a 1st transfer window but I've a horrible feeling he may not be there come pre season. Which be a shame as all business need to ride someone else reputation from time to time
  6. How bi polar is this last Tuesday we was going up. Ffs
  7. Hopefully hes been in Dubi getting investors on board with the delivery of Scholes as manager
  8. Personally at start of season before knew Clarke would be back, I was hoping we build the defence on stott and Edmundson.
  9. I think the problem is closer to home, the Premeir League and to some extent the big Championship clubs. They are that scared of missing out on a gem they are just becoming cattle markets for young player. They are buying parents, taking kids from 5 years old. By time they are 18 to 21 they are already millionaires. We can't afford em. So think we probably have little choice to look for journey men, foreign players and loans where the parent club pays 90% of the wage. It's all that crazy it might just work
  10. Does anyone know the Duffus situation he's stated on Twitter last week he is back at the club, has anyone seen him training or is he just going to be passing time till he's away. Aware of his issues with the club so don't need updating on them, just wondering if anyone knows if he will be considered for selection or not? As seems crazy not having on the bench at least if he's all fit and well
  11. Wasn't ones of our past complaints that we don't seem to find any rough diamonds from non league like Peterborough? Surly this is the same but I presume cheaper just in a different country. And France have certainly been the most successful footballing nation since ClairFontain set up so I would presume there be a chance of picking up some good players. The problem is we may have to go through a few to find 1. But AL doesn't seem to mind shipping 20 in at a time to find 1 and clearing the rest off, which in theory should be better/quicker than taking the risk on buying one or two from the English non league. Just may take foreign players a bit longer to settle as it does in the dizzy heights of the premier league - so how much of a culture shock is Oldham, cold weather and league 2 football. The unknown is - will we find em, will we get decent fees, will the fee go to the club and will it work....no one can answer But I have no problem picking up players from France Belgium Netherlands etc as are all talented footballing counties, if they were coming from San Marino Luxembourg etc then it would look like AL was feathering his own nest. But I think it's his plan and chosen route to go with now. So time will tell whether we will be the next Leyton Orient or Le'Latics.
  12. And removing Byrne if his move to Shamrock proves anything
