Not to mention the millions of pounds in transfer fees we paid for them all to sign compared to the pennies we'll get when we move them on. How the feck did Ellis become a multi millionaire .
Every club buys a dud occasionally. But the stream of expensive players who are actually worthless ( actually worthless would be better than the negative value we have with them) is sheer incompetence.
It still pains me that we paid 12m for Fletcher and paid him 60k a week for however many years he was at the club and then watch him leave for nothing to go to Sheff Wed.
How come players have a financial worth before they come to us, then after a year or so we will pay someone to take them for nothing!!! Absolutely ludicrous
Old Ellis made a rookie mistake, a one that in his other businesses he has not made and that is in appointing total clueless pratts to run the club on his behalf. He definitely took his eye off the ball or was conned by his so called board of three, so in affect all our problems must lie at his doorstep. However he does not seem as though he wants to shoulder the blame and we have to suffer.
I assumed this would be happening. Don't forget we;ll be paying fee installments on some of these too, as well as players who have permanently left the club too.
Yeah our transfer policy has been horrendous for far too long. We’re sill probably going to be paying for the likes of Borini etc. One thing the Mags don’t do is the installments thing.
You look at the players that are out on loan and one positive in all this is: Stryjek Jones, Kone, Djilobodji, Oviedo Watmore, N'Dong, Cattermole, Khazri, Lens Borini Should really piss all over league 1. ps. Still wouldn't play Rodwell.
What sticks in my throat is he's a one paced, injury prone useless twa t why did we buy him ? No one else was interested, did that not tell us something ? When he photoed pis sed drinkin Buckfast on an International break summed him up.
