    What’s the score with the Croatian lad… some stories about him going to a German club… his reputation is impressive so hope we get him

    Yeah I think that’s the key part, how we reinvest the money.
    Hopefully it’s done well and strengthens the squad overall.

    Give it a rest!!

    How are we being badly run? All you keep mentioning is the BCB incident (which the club dealt with) and selling Clarke for a very good profit

    So please let us know why you think we are badly run?

    Browne n Poveda both had a lot of clubs after them but chose us. If we were so badly run why did jobe, Ballard n Rigg sign new deals? Previously hume, o9, Patterson, neil, Cirkin n roberts all signed new deals at this badly run club

    I think that came off the back of him following them on Instagram yesterday.
    Apparently his cousin has just signed for them so may explain the follow.

    I'm not so sure mate. He will be in the front 3, but Speakman does go on to mention him playing in forward areas, which to me indicates he's flexible. He's scored goals at CF and LW. The good thing is, he gives us competition for Mayenda and Mundle.

    I came round to it a bit after reading the other day that RLB knows the player. Makes it feel like a signing he knows will fit into his system rather than an opportunistic signing that we’ve seen previously.

    Our third highest player sale in the club's history
    Really - how much were player assets worth when the current owner took charge and how much are the current squad worth now?
    Maybe you should go back to RTG

    Good interview, hopefully he hits the ground running.

    Sounds like Jack Clarke's replacement
    RR: So, in short... is he any good?
    Timur: Wilson performs quite well when he plays in his natural position as a left winger. His strengths lie in simple dribbling and taking shots with his right foot.

    However, Zenit often deployed him in different roles that didn’t suit his abilities, and this led to poor performances from Wilson.

    Can you imagine? 2 announcements in the day we sell Clarke? Such a badly run club! @Northumberland Rocks

    That works both ways, opening of eyes

    You'd think everything was **** and a mess reading some posts from you and others. That's simply not true, happy to point out mistakes but unable to see the positives and praise them accordingly

    Interesting, as in his interview with the club he says he’s a striker who can also play wide.

    Either way he will offer versatility.

    So there was only one person then, not half the board as he's implying.

    The RTG people are always welcome but this one's arrived shouting the odds and telling people they're wrong.

    None of us have a clue about the figures so no one's right or wrong.

    Losing your head, over made up figures and guesswork, isn't a good look.

    And as has been said the finances are none of our business unless we go out of business ...

    ... there's absolutely no chance of that happening with KLD here, you'd think people would be pleased.

    No competent striker for 18 months, humiliating your support and selling your best player for relative peanuts. Aye great management that.

    On his Youtube clip (yes I know) he does cut in from the left, but also was quite involved in the box
