Bellamy did fine - twice. Biggest balls ups were Scousers, Richie Lambert and Blobby Fowlup. Ramsey will show class is permanent, especially in his home town, nearly.
Our limited ability to spend means we have to rely on freebies. Whilst I very much doubt Ramsey would play for nothing, there's a general belief that his joining the club would stimulate substantial interest amongst both the media and supporters. The resulting increase in revenue into the club through sponsorship deals, fanbase purchases and media revenue would more than pay for his time with us. Agree he brings no guarantees as to his on pitch influence but he's still miles ahead of anyone else we have at the club in midfield control. If he stimulates our on pitch performances as much as he has the media interest, then we'll be very happy. In the meantime, despite the belief of some that he's already here - as I write, he isn't.
As we actually don`t pay the wages so if other clubs can`t attract big names we don`t care. I hope that answers your question.
I’m sure he will be a great signing but I’m a bit worried about possible injuries. As long as he stays fit I feel he will be an asset to the team and the younger players.
Depends on what you mean by big wages??? If rumours are true then he'll likely only be on a few grand more than Callum Robinson for basic wages. I'm sure there'll be other incentives and more revenue generating opportunities built in to any deal (such as % of commercial sales on named shirts etc), so it may actually prove to be a very good deal for both parties if all goes well. Thing is Supcon, we're probably not as financially hamstrung as you guys are despite our current embargo and the attention grabbing headlines that you may see. I see your club turned down an offer for young Alex Scott. Now the vultures have started circling properly, how much longer do you reckon you can keep hold of him? Any half decent Prem side come in for him and there's every chance he'll ask to go and lord knows Mr Lansdowne is probably going to be glad of recouping some of the millions you lot have spunked away on standing still eh?
