Random and unrelated post. Skip at your leisure.

A fella I know well, been involved in non league footy for years as club chairman etc. Real football man and a neighbour of mine. So he has decided on a major career change, late in life. Applied for a role in the kitman team at Birmingham city and got it, out of the blue. A lot on the buying and commercial side I think. He is over in Europe somewhere a the moment. Apparently they have some sort of netflix crew with them and he is ducking every time a camera comes near.

Got me thinking. I am old and knnackered but maybe I can have one last dance im a footy club yet. Maybe it is time for the Tea Lady to become a Tea Man? I can make a cracking brew. And I know my way round a tin of biscuits :emoticon-0102-bigsm

“If we can find a new keeper, Rambo will be gone. But it’s depending on who we can find, couple been looked ( your patto for one) but there are others, once we’ve had a bit accepted ourselves is when Rambo can go. But as you know. Things can change rapidly with this. He’s a nice guy just needs the right the right team, coach & environment. He’s get that he’ll thrive and be the keeper we thought we were getting”

from my saints friend who works at the club.

I'm not fussed really on Ramsdale and the whole psr conversation does my head in a bit but there is an opportunity for the club here.

Buy Rambo for £25m. Sell Patto to them for £12.5m (slight inflation on both).

Ramsdale on a 5 year deal = £5m PSR outlay this year.

Patto = £12.5m pure profit.

£7.5m psr gain this season which essentially covers the Adingra and Talbi year 1 spend.

How unrealistic is this in reality tho?

I mean if we stay up, does it not become possible?

he's never looked like leaving Everton despite being England's number 1

Not sure where I mentioned any money at all in this.

but ok
 
Im still angry/frustrated with Cirkin for yet again starting the season how he ends most, injured. Zero pre season from him to be had also. I really dont understand the hype he gets from some of our fans, id get rid asap if i had my way.
Alese isnt much better either. Both are a waste of a hefty wage.

Mate cirkin played through injury second half of the season for the club because his surgery was bad. Got us promoted and then had a second surgery on the same injury

Look at how long this has been going on for now though mate ffs. Its ridiculous how many games he misses.
We coukd have potentially beaten Luton in the playoffs if he was available. Im not saying its all his fault but its become ridiculous now. Im hearing his latest injury is his wrist ffs. How may players play with a pot on!

I love how classily and dismissive it is as well.

‘all we need is a sorry and s done and we golden’.

Gyokeres is right in a corner here. He’s gone on strike essentially and top clubs don’t like that.

Yeah things have totally flipped upside down for him.

I still cant believe he went to Sporting anyway for about 18m. Where were all the Premiership teams then? He was obviously gonna be a bargain

Only Shields but I forgot how much I like Wilson Isidor. I think him and Mayenda are going to thrive.

Makes me want a signing like Arokodare more than a Mika or an Abline though as I think we need a big unit of a striker to offer something different to the two we’ve got

Aye he was superb for Coventry. Superb at the SOL against he was another level.

I think he’s scores for fun for Arsenal if they get it done.

Big strong and athletic with an eye for goal. It was a no brainer really paying 18m for him. Same as us signing Jobe for 2.5m. The profit is there to be seen and im not even any good with money lol.

Could our new goalkeeper coach who is highly respected help ramsdale in his concentration that he himself has said affects him. Think he could get back to the standard he shown at arsenal. If we could do a good deal then I'd be happy with him
