losesome Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 PD appears to have the big Joe touch when it comes to talking the club up. Obviously leaves them with a great impression and wanting to sign like Joe did. Hope Mr Heffernan realises what he's missed !!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafc0000 Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 I must be the only one questioning why we are signing players and not playing the youth team given the current money situation... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
astottie Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Good signing and lets hope Jon Macken is next to sign. would be surprised if someone with his experience and wage expectations signs for us. We now have 7 strikers on the books so if there is to be another addition i think it will be for the triallist Jones/Kelly/Knight......

PlayItLivo Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 I must be the only one questioning why we are signing players and not playing the youth team given the current money situation... We have a transfer budget which already factored in the departure of Blitz and Gazal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oafc0000 Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 (edited) We have a transfer budget which already factored in the departure of Blitz and Gazal. What does that mean though ? We now run a overdraft ? Blitz etc gave us a good by investment ? or we are going to live within are means and not continue to lose £15k a week ?

oafc0000 Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 why would we do that when there is money available for this season? Simple answer... Presuming actual cash is there, why spend it all this season ? Why not pull things right back and make that money go as far as possible increasing the time to find new owners...

Would still like another CB, full back and winger. Were like England we need to fit all our midfield maestros into one team and considering Stephens was compared to Gerrard we can swtich taylor over to the right and play Stephens out of position on the left, with Furman and Jones holding the fort in the middle. We should release Worthington. I like midfield steele but he's really not that good. Allott was better. We have Purdie as well whose a wide player.

OldhamSheridan Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 after the Feeney and Jones signings we dont know how much more money is available could be next to nothing, so no point in spreading it over 2 years But, if we are losing money every week and owe someone £3M then surely the idea is to not spend it at all. The team we have already should see us into mid-table obscurity you would think. The addition of Jones and Feeney has seen us rise to probable mid-table obscurity. Obviously this position is dependant upon whether Dickov is poor or decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc0000 Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 Or even getting to the point where we aren't losing fistfuls of cash a week. Yup, what percentage of income does the wage bill represent... I bet its pretty high... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
