Ristac I wasn't putting Cellino up against Rad I said the Cellino Model as opposed to Rads Model players before stadium. players coming and going happens everywhere I was just stating that PERSONALLY I would prefer MODEL 1 team first stadium 2nd buying back the stadium is a no brainer but build the team first
Rads thought he was doing both, he didn’t spend the amount he has on players and expect to be outside the top 6. I agree you can’t prevent players wanting to leave, it’s what you do with the proceeds. Previous owners put chunks in their pockets, Rads handed it over to Orta, that was his mistake to hopefully learn. IF Rads had spent big on the infrastructure and nothing on players I’d agree with you but he spent on both. Cellino stripped the infrastructure sold the likes of Ross, Byram and Cooke and didn’t put half back into the playing squad, a bunch of two bit loans most the time
But the most likely outcome is Rad stays, Orta stays the model stays the same and the player farm is as ineptly run as the first team and we continue to slide. The happy clappy hypothetical stuff about infrastructure and yoof is bollocks. The first team is the only priority until that’s at least challenging at the top of this league. Get promoted and sorting all the other none important stuff is easier.
Morning Peeps. Must admit I was quite impressed with Alioski. He ran his socks off for 90 mins, but he needs to be able to beat his man. Also nobody was supporting him when he had the ball in the final third.
interesting to read that, funny how one scenario can be viewed in 2 completely different ways time will tell
No support cos the rest of the team know he is going to lose the ball or dive to the floor so no point putting the effort in. Will never make it in this league. Sell him and invest the cash in a dray horse not a show pony. #horsesforcourses
It’s called consistency Something you’ve also always shown, though you do seem to be having a bit of a wobble this season
shape mukka its all about shape on a serious note just read that Harris gave in his list of end of season targets to our chairman in January who has given the go ahead for our COE to go get them hope we still get them if we don't go up
Don't worry about us,your ground will be a McDonalds way before Rad sells up. Bomber will always have a job though,someone's got to flip the burgers.
If we turned it into a McDonalds, I'm sure you'd be there in a flash - especially during the 2nd half
I'm too young as well,things might change in 10 years,give me a bell then. YOU'RE I'm moving on m8,going to teach Englosh in Hitaly.
We will have to get you a loyalty card - will be a nice change for you to leave with some points to take home!
