Goto the line shareholder funds line which is the money Abdallah has put into the club that we owe him. The debt figure we owe him has actually reduced.

There must have been a substantial 6 figure sum of additional income that came in after Shez's appointment. Doesn't appear that any of that was spent on improving the squad to fight relegation. As was promised. I'll edit this to say that of course we were under embargo, but the money could have been used to address that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drphibes rises again Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 I think a huge chunk of the squad bottled it when it came to crunch time. Slap bang in the middle of a relegation battle and we hardly picked up yellow or red cards. Desperate times usually result in players getting stuck in more than usual in an attempt to save the club. Sadly most of last year's lot seemed happy enough to just watch us sink. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly most of last year's lot seemed happy enough to just watch us sink. After winning at Stevenage, we then took one point from the final eighteen available…and fell six points adrift of Barrow. You could argue that the one red card, Piergianni against Northampton, was pivotal… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
League one forever Posted June 30, 2022 Share Posted June 30, 2022 I don’t understand how anyone can look at last seasons squad and think anything other than a bottom two finish was highly likely from the start. We had no striker. One midfielder who could score. Only two or three other semi decent players. It was a non league squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way the club had a 6 figure sum of income before the transfer deadline two days later. That left us with free agents to sign and the free agents were free agents for a reason...

But AL turned down the Vaughan money (shahed confirmed on the pod) which of would cleared the the EFL loan, and given us more movement. He chose not to.

I'd hazard a guess there were still free agents out there that could have improved the squad. Besides, we had 8000 at that game and I would guess a fair few half season tickets sold by that point. It was enough info to be able to forecast that spending money on improving the squad wouldn't really be a gamble as it would be covered by excess sales in the remaining games.

My knowledge isn't great enough to know off the top of my head and my interest in arguing my point isn't strong enough to spend time looking it up. I disagree he'd have got pelters for selling Vaughan. If he'd sold him, cleared the debt and made some signings then I'm fairly sure he would have had the backing of the majority of fans. Or maybe I'm wrong completely and the club did all it could to avoid relegation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a choice. Not in any way correct regarding what was said. Although the questions back to Shahed showed its not just you two who weren't listening. What would have been the point selling Vaughan as there wasn't enough money to clear the loan from what Shahed said? You'd have got some income but couldn't have improved the squad just with that. You'd have been a player less and not able to bring more in. Zero point selling unless you're finding the remainder to clear the loan then more on top for dquad improvements. Whether AL should have got cash from elsewhere to clear it is a different matter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LightDN123 Posted July 3, 2022 Share Posted July 3, 2022 Still stand by Missilou left us in the shitter to play a couple of friendly games for Congo. Joke of a decision, he won’t care or hopefully play for us again. Never mind that penalty miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
