    Isn't the Ross transfer fee paid over three or four seasons in instalments as is practice with most transfers. If that's the case there's only a two or three million collected on it yet. I may well be wrong Ristac, but that's my understanding of how transfers worked

    No idea, just remember Cellino saying he will use the money to purchase ER in November so assumed it was banked, can't see him saying to the bank I will pay you when we receive the instalments, you might be right he might not have all of it yet but either way, he has or will have £11m from the sale.

    Here we go again ....

    The Ross £11m is sitting somewhere, no comparison with Bates?

    Well a chunk went to Cardiff & a chunk went to his agents. What's left probably went towards the crippling debts that had been well hidden by previous encumbents. It took a forensic financial expert to find them. Did this & the published accounts pass you by?

    Sold our leading scorer and captain.

    Only because McContract left him with no option - or did you miss these articles?

    Sold our only other goal scorer in Smith.

    Not very many people got upset at this. I did. Oddly though, I don't remember you being one of his biggest fans. So are you genuinely upset that he left, or just seizing on this to help build a character assassination case?

    Lied about buying the ground back

    As documented above, 'something came up'. It wasn't just the financial landmines, it was GFH playing silly buggers too. Or do you still not accept that either one of these was reason enough about the delay? Lied also suggests intent. So you have evidence of this intention? Sounds like libel to me if you don't.

    Ignoring the coaches plea to strengthen the squad
    Most Chairmen do. I have read many biographies of Chairmen, and all seem to echo the story of the manager saying 'we only need 3 more players'. How many do you want in the squad?

    Transfer window arrives and we possibly and probably exit it a weaker team by selling another captain.

    Pure speculation. We might sign Messi!

    Moans about massive legal expenses.
    Don't blame him, tbh! He's had to shell out a lot. But remember, he pays his own legal expenses, not the club. Unlike Bates.

    BLAMES EVERYONE ELSE. Nothing to do with him appointing coaches we have never heard of and players who we have to Wiki
    Blames everyone else for what? I shall not respond to something so non-specific.

    The words 'broken' & 'record' spring to mind. Again. And again ...

    Fact not good enough for him these days? Perhaps I should take a leaf out of his book & make stuff up.

    Mighty's stories aren't facts.

    No, but the league table, the lack of new players and tomorrow's appeal are.
