I know this is simplified.

But if we had budgeted £100,000 wages for a number 9 this season.
Then surely there is £100,000 left in the kitty. Which if only paying that for 2/3rds of a season would mean in reality a 33% increase in salary. Thus a better salary ( or a higher percentage of said players wages if a loanee) should be attractive to someone (or their club) !!

The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

I was merely expressing what a good position the club is in compared to what might have been.



I appreciate that and respect your unlimited positivity but current events do need debating without constant reference to how lucky we are to have JS and AP.

We must keep pushing to be better and although I admire all they are trying to do the most important thing that glues everything together is what happens on the field and the players we are able to sign.

Very eloquently put LCL.

I’m delighted that the club has new owners but it will be football that defines their success. Some of what I read on here staggers me to be honest. No one should be beyond scrutiny.

That’s good for this season but what if the players are looking for a longer term deal? Loan players aside.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

What evidence does anyone have that lack of money is the thing that is stopping us bringing in a new striker? The owners have gone on record to say that there is a budget but that it can be extended if necessary.

I'm disappointed that guardian readers have anything to do with this club. They are out of touch with reality.

Love a bit of satire

Typical football fan mentality really, everything must be the fault of a lack of money…in truth there’s probably lots of factors; contract length, happy elsewhere, doesn’t want to work with Hurst, doesn’t want to travel, negative perception of the club for the last 17 years running off…

There’s a raft of reasons that don’t really relate to what money we offer…


'the poor and the needy are selfish and greedy'...well done Mozza
