    I'm reminded of this by the incomparable JCC.

    NOTHING
    Something is but nothing
    Something it is not
    Nil plus nil is nothing
    Nothings what I got
    Nothing on the tele
    Nothing going on
    Nothing to get worked up about
    Nothing by the ton
    Nothing times a million
    Nothing minus ten
    Don’t say nothing to no one
    It’s nothing to do with them
    Come all the way from nowhere
    And now I’m nowhere else
    Where nothing is out of place
    No one lives
    And nothing smells
    Talking to no one
    It’s like talking to the wall
    I give you what I get
    I give you bugger all


    Sums up our current transfer policy quite succinctly.

    Hope he stays and continues to collect his big wages , regardless of his performances . Anythings better than that vindictive and despised pair getting anymore money out of the Club.

    I hope he goes, the more money they get and less wages they pay, the cheaper they sell for and quicker they go.

    And do we really believe they will sell it for cheaper if Grosicki goes?

    Not a chance the price will be the same....

    They may not sell. As long as people are paying to watch and the wages are low. The club will make a profit. So they have no reason to sell.

    If there is an interest to sign Cattermole on loan then could well hinge on Grosicki going.

    They will sell as soon as they can get the money back that they have put in

    Unless they think they can run it in profit...in which case they’re never leaving

    To have any chance of running at a profit, they’d need to address the issues that remain and continue to negatively impact on income.

    I know
    They seem to think they can ignore income and just keep cutting outgoings...not long now before they realise the two things are linked!

    There isn't - Adkins stated very recently in a presser that it ws a made up story and there's no interest

    To be fair to Adkins, he's been as clear as he can saying "we need to strengthen" several times in interviews and pressers and really it's a blatant message to the owners without appearing to be critical.

    Which, let's be honest is as much as he can do - it wouldn't be good at all for him to go and get sacked now - we need stability and to stay in the championship until they've gone

    If he survives them and keeps us afloat the guy deserves a medal (or a statue)

    Hope you are right - but I can't see them going any time soon.

    No sure why there's all the hostility towards Cattermole, he'd do a good job for us. We need a mouth, someone who puts a foot in and gets stuck in...Fits the bill on all three accounts.
