This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

I did state it does not include bonuses which i expect he gets nice ones when he plays

You say resigning CW/CB is madness but it’s not when you don’t have any money to replace them with by resigning them it’s costing the club £6m a year if they let them go it would cost us around £30-40m to replace them plus wages. That is why they were renewed.

Dazza, In your above post you are talking sense. We need to get away from buying finished products and get our own hungry development players into useful first team action. The thought of some of our higher paid players fighting for their places, or finding themselves third choice does appeal.

The issue is I really don’t see Tekkers or Sako giving a flying f if they play or not. They cost 12m a year about 8% of the clubs turnover on 2 highly ineffective players.

I wouldn't get complacent about being 7 points clear of the zone. All our wins seem to be skin of our teeth close. I'd just like to know how the Weed can have a superb, if smallish, stadium, look in better shape than us. It's like they are the bigger club now. Why is money so tight? The wage bill is obviously huge but if you can't make a profit in the EPL WTF can you?
I have now sufficient funds to last me the rest of my life. Provided I don't buy anything. |
