It's an interesting approach; if you've ever seen the film Moneyball, it's comes across as a bit like that. MS seems to be targeting players with a specific role in mind and ones that aren't necessarily going to be world beaters, but when put into his system will do a job.
Wouldn't mind a signing of some relative known quality rather than some of speculative quality. All the signings so far seem to be a bet on green 0. Amazing if it comes off but a massive risk for our PL survival.
Difference is that there isn't a lot of strategy in baseball. Opposition team can't really affect performance other than maybe walking a batter.
Of course you'll get confirmed deal threads on other forums, stickied at the top. And transfers about other clubs will get their own thread. Or have separate sections for offtopic stuff, and keep that out of football threads/forums etc. Maybe you'll even have a feedback thread on people's opinion on the forum. I'm allowed to have an opinion, which definitely coincides with some other people's. I also broke the latest news on the loan here, have some respect for that.
goto page 1 of this thread , the mods update this regularly (well when relevant ) and you didnt have to pay em for it http://www.not606.com/threads/january-incoming-outgoing.339985/
So 5 bids in for players according to Sky. Tomorrow is going to be a busy one. I just hope we keep Robertson in all of it.
You beat me to it. Long gone are the days of the easy names Ron Chopper Harris Nobby no teeth Stiles Billy dirty bastard Bremner Tommy vicious twat Smith Most of the players signed now sounded like diseases
Just a quick update. Robbo will likely go tomorrow if a 'repacement' is found. Rehab has been a total **** in all of this and basically the player is left very annoyed. No bids for big H and he will stay. 3 due in tomorrow. One being a ****e left back.
