    My company card had no limit on it, I could use it how I wanted but they demanded their pound of flesh from me. which I think is fair enough. Most of the other lads only had petrol cards.

    To be honest, the clubs negativity towards the fans is my bug bear.
    We know if we put out a stronger team for this league, plus the flair we have we could still do play offs easy.
    So I get what your saying, but there's loads to be negative about and not so much the other way.
    Soz mate
    PS I will come up with a few names imho we should look at

    Mrs Margret Byrne thought it was funny how Gaz the hair flair took his rental boys to London for a jolly up, then Ellis Short found out the clubs money/his money paid for it.
    Oh and BTW, they stayed at the Ritz Charlton.

    For what it's worth I've known Gary since I was a kid, not spoken to him in ages but he really is a nice lad.

    Anyway, this thread has gone off on a bit of a tangent. Any new transfer rumours? In equal measures I both love and hate how the club keeps things to themselves.

    I entirely back them keeping info to themselves but I want them to know if they’re reading this that professionalism is no fun whatsoever

    Styles looks a good player,just watched YouTube (which of course never gives a misleading impression) and he looks like a player who likes to burst forward, with a fair bit of pace and a very good left foot ( mind, we could quickly coach the bursting forward with pace out of him, and get him going sideways and backwards)

    The last goal scoring midfielder we signed is currently immovable at centre half.

    To be fair at the moment the fans negativity towards the club is mine. It’s frustrating when you want a quick win like but I still feel hopeful about our future

    What about the massive be overreaction from certain sections of fans towards the club. Beale wouldn't have been my choice, but the hatred and singing getting sacked in the morning is embarrassing

    Naff all, the lad from Lyon yesterday was the last incoming link, don’t really see anything picking up until we get Saturday out the way now, styles aside anyway

    Some people keep saying that, with just a little more spending, the club can make the play-offs, promotion and the massive income that brings.

    So, if as you say KLD is really in it for money why do you think he's not doing that?

    He clearly has the money and, if as you claim he has no real interest in the club, could waltz away with a massive return on his outlay. The longer he stays, in this league, the more difficult it may become ... so why not get the job done, pocket the loot and wave goodbye suckers.

    I'm really interested, it's a serious question.

    It seems some want to see the owner as unwilling to spend and profit orientated simultaneously ...

    ... imo it can't be both.

    I agree, that should be done quietly in the morning but have someone lined up, not handled like TM sacking.
