  1. “I am guessing with zero basis for my guess” would be more accurate.
  2. How can you possibly know this? ... also, as Gary said above, you are ignoring the evidence of his career so far. He is undoubtedly a good player and it’s up to him to realise his talent.
  3. It is. Impressive. Notts County defence must have had a mare though.
  4. Notts C 0 - 4 Yeovil ....but “9 points is a must” apparently. Far too too early for some of the nonsense spoken on this forum.
  5. If course it’s easy to go after him, he will have signed warrants. But is there any point, has he got anything to go after?
  6. So not “gone” not “suspended” as reported by those ‘in the know’. Not yet anyway. Lets hope it’s resolved soon.
  7. Perhaps. But after 180 minutes of football!? Do me a favour.

  10. Yeah. Its almost as though people expect 20 years to be fixed in 6 months. Consolidate and secure the club. Then progress.
  11. Has Corney got the funds to settle any warrants in a PSA? Probably not worth the paper they would be written on.
  12. Well said. For his first 6 months what he has done well for me. Let’s see what he can do in the next 6 to 12.
  13. Even the Facebook mob are receiving this statement well. You have to be a special kind of miserable or extremely arrogant to actually want to find fault with it. Even our Ryan is generally positive about it!
  14. Down the swanny? Are you suggesting he should have ignored the debts, entered admin and restarted at the bottom of the pyramid?
  15. Was this thread before or after the statement?
  16. Clubs in the League 1 and League 2 operate within a Spending Constraint framework termed Salary Cost Management Protocol (SMCP). SCMP limits spending on player wages to a percentage of club Turnover. In League 1 clubs can spend a maximum of 60% of their turnover on wages - in League 2, the limit is 55%. There are no restrictions (in themselves) on the amount a club can lose or spend on transfer fees. Initially introduced into League 2 in 2004/5 for guidance purposes, sanctions for breaching the SCMP thresholds were introduced during the 2011/12 season, with Swindon the first club to be sanctioned under the rules. The process is interactive with clubs providing the Football League with projections for the spending for the coming season. During the season the clubs provide regular updates on their Turnover and wage bill. Any club that is forecasting a wage spend within 5% of the figure will be scrutinised more closely. Where a club is on course to exceed the limits, the Football League will apply a Transfer Embargo. Crucially, a club doesn't have to overspend to incur the embargo, it only needs to shown to be heading for an overspend. This interactive approach enables clubs to increase their wage bill if their circumstances improve - a successful cup run will generate increased income and the Football League may be able to sanction additional wage spend. Because SCMP doesn't rely on the retrospective scrutiny of club accounts, it is also extremely effective at stopping overspend before the spending actually occurs (something that has been a problem for the Championship's version of FFP). The Football League's website's explanation of the rules doesn't go into a great deal of detail about how they operate. However they have responded to enquiries and confirmed a number of areas that help us to better understand the rules.
  17. Ive explained my answer in the large edit. It applies to you and others. We can’t have it both ways.
  18. Honest statement. He’s chucked 3m and people will still give him shit. I also am happy he has has defended himself against the shit that was thrown by the likes of Davies. Just an entitled footballer trying to leave mid/contract for higher wages who then downed tools in a sulk.
  19. He has to operate on a level that is sutainable. Isn’t that what we all wanted all along!? We can’t change the thing we moan about simply so we can carry on moaning. Corny got grief for carrying debt and not paying bills/wages. People pointed to Dale as a god example of a well run club, saying why can’t we do that? He now tries to do that after considerable cleaning up with £3m of his cash and those same people still moan? It’s ridiculous.
  20. You are exaggerating. Again. Fane would (will) walk in to the current midfield. I’m not saying Gardner shouldn’t be there I’m just saying he is ok, nothing more. They have different roles, but you already know that.
  21. Yet he isn’t sticking in a piss poor Carlisle team. Kelly massively overrated too imo. Also not featuring for Cov. Ooooooo controversial. ?
