    Until we’ve got someone half decent to lead the line, then overall we haven’t really improved. The current side doesn’t have many goal threats, at all

    Get where you're coming from, but I'd reckon if a part of it is absorbed into general club finances, it would be to cover any current operating losses rather than historical.

    Ah I wish there was some evidence to prove you wrong. Oh wait, we sold Stewart last summer and spent every single penny.

    I preferred the fake Bob, at least they made up a funny story instead of the pure nonsense you come out with.

    The first half of that (in bold) is opinion. The rest might be "fact"

    I dont know that Poveda is injury prone, or has fitness issues. He has passed hia medical so that is good enough for me at this stage.

    What troubles me is his lack of first team football at his age. For someone supposedly as talented as he is I am at a bit of a loss. A lot of the time he seems to come on as a sub. Apparently he is on a low wage but with good appearance fees. Maybe he just isnt as good as his reputation and this is a bit of a punt on our behalf. Personally I am not particularly expecting much from him and if he does the business I can be really happy for him and us. But our season doesnt seem to hinge on him at this stage, in my opinion anyway.

    Exactly. Big difference to Poveda who’s 24 and hardly played. Very few of his appearances would’ve been 90 minutes

    It’s his opinion and maybe won’t be too far from the truth

    His opinion based on what? The club have already done the opposite of what he is claiming will happen, plus if they were that desperate for the loans to be repaid we would've sold Clarke in January.

    I'm all for opinions but at least back them up.

    Conspiracy theory central on the board today. Pathetic.

    Reading what RLB has said about a striker today, I'm guessing it's the prem loan that is closest.
