“I cannot lose any sleep or stress about whether we will lose any of our players, we just have to be ready for whatever happens, and I think we are" - RM.......Yanks looking to capitalise on Our striker aye!.......<laugh>

Let's hope we get to dump these hapless Yanks, they are as bad as Bob Bradley aye!.......<laugh><laugh><laugh>

Your post inspired me, to once again, check out Mr. Bradley's wiki entry. His career is outlined for all to see, comment on, and criticise.

I scoured everywhere for the details of your illustrious career, but, alas, can find nothing, other than pointless, insulting, posts on 606.
There's millions of them, " aye ".
Nowhere have I found any criticism of your lack of ability by Mr. Bradley. Too much class, and style to do so.
You could learn a great deal from him.

As regards the " hapless Yanks ", there's nothing quite as " hapless " as someone whose sole contribution hereabouts is to criticise.

" Aye, aye !! "

Neco Williams is joining Nottingham Forest for 17 million.
How the **** did we let Connor Roberts go for around 2.5 million. We are lightweights when it comes to transfer dealings.

Length of contract remaining is usually a major factor in the fees.

Playing Devil's Advocate, again.
What does it matter how much the Club got/get for any individual player ?
The owners are the only ones affected. Their players; their Club; their money; their decisions.
Consequently, there is no " we ".

Simple answer really - if 'The Owners' get more for a player sale, then maybe 'they' can afford to spend a bit more on a replacement. It's more profit for 'them' isn't it ?

And whilst you continue to refuse to acknowledge the emotional attachment that lifelong fans of a football club invest in, "We" is a very appropriate term to use. The fans will be with the club a lot longer than any owners.

Whichever way you cut it, the owners still own the Club, and " we " have no say in the running of it.

" Emotional " attachment is fine, but too many people think that gives them some kind of input into the running of the business. Clearly, it doesn't.

At the end of the day the football supporter is merely a customer, and if they accepted that status, they wouldn't get so het up about it.

Now just where did I " continue to refuse to acknowledge the emotional attachment ... " ?

Do you know what the phrase " Devil's Advocate " means ?
