Summer window

Well it's all OK today.
Speakman was at his desk at 7.45, he is never in that early.
So summit could be happening.
Not saying it is mind incase them over the road, try to rip a hole in my arse, but he is in.

 

Also remember selling the Crown jewels is a capital offence at SAFC, we let 3 kids go who we could not stop and all hell breaks out.

 

Tell him to open up a browser, go to google.com and type in "how do you sign a striker"

 

That's a good one. But I don't think he can type.
At Brum he had a stunning secretary here he don't.

 

True, but that was part of a wider narrative at the time where Madrox were selling anything that moved so they could pay the wage bill.
Not a lot we could do about the likes of Greenwood, Hugill etc but I did hear directly from the family of Logan Pye that the club made no effort to try and convince him to stay.

In any case, selling your best players for £20-30m is different to losing the for a nominal fee because you can't/won't give them a pathway to the team and can't/won't pay the leccy bill

 

It was not just Pyes money mate there were other factors re keeping him.

FFs sake you type fast, do you want to be Speakmans secretary?

 

I know it wasn't just money, but they club made no attempt to persuade him to stay.

And no, I have my own secretary and am not planning to be anyone else's

 

Was he wearing TV make up?

 

Having a swim, using the cryogenic chamber and making himself a coffee before questioning why he's seeing Ibrahimovich on the top of a free transfer list....

 

Great, we’re now being revisionist about Donald’s time to try and make now seem worse.

A number of those kids were being actively touted around to other clubs, in some cases behind the parents’ backs.

 

Donald's time at the club can be summed up as thus:

Scraped together enough money for a down payment, bought the club with it's own money, gambled it all on promotion and selling on for a profit. Failed, shat the bed and had to sell off anything we could get a price for to keep the club afloat.

9.45 in Ukraine. Just enough time for a coffee.

 

Bloody hope so.

 

Does this apply to Saudi?

 

I used to teach typing and can still do 65wpm with 100% accuracy. However in my 73rd year I may not fit the model

 

I don't know him,but I'm guessing he won't do....stunning secretaries are much better!

 

If we’re to achieve KLD’s plan of premier league football within 5 years we need to get promoted by the end of the season after this.

So if we do finish further down the table than last season IMO it’s a step back not just because we’ve finished a few places lower but because there’s now more teams between us and our goal.

Those teams will have improved to which their league position is evidence of that so where do we go if we say finish 8/9th this season? I’m not saying that’s a bad season at all by the way because as you’ve mentioned there’s a lot of good teams with decent budgets in there this season but something would have to give at the end of the season if we were to finish below the play offs because we either accept we aren’t getting PL football within the timeframe we wanted or we have to spend to bring in quality to push on that season.

 

Don't bother about them no-accounts over there....keep the info coming!

 

I very much doubt it, FFP is a uefa thing isn't it?

 

Good post mate. However, at the end of this season,if we do finish 8th or 9th, many of these players will have another season under their belt and another season,hopefully,of individual and collective strengthening and improvement. We mustn't underestimate the capacity of these young players to learn and improve. Much better for them to be competitive in the Championship for another year than going into the PL before they're ready and getting battered every week. When we get promotion,we want to be able to add the necessary and properly compete.
