  1. Imagine spending all that all money because some idiots at a fans forum said so.
  2. Players will keep being sold to keep the club afloat. When the season starts, the squad will be filled with free transfers and loans.
  3. As long as they don't mind not being paid and training at woodburn road, they should sign all of them.
  4. The pitch we have doesn't match to squad we have and the style of play we want. The post Christmas home form is significantly contributed to by the fact the team trained on the pitch in Jan/Feb giving the surface we have seen in recent home games.
  5. The purpose of this forum is for chansiri to blame the fans for the lack of transfer activity. He will announce next season's ST will be on sale & will only be able to spend money if he sells 20k or something.
  6. Essentially, Danny is massively overachieving.
  7. For a non-academy product to get to that number of appearances is incredible. Dedicated professional to stay fit & consistently excellent. Best free transfer we've ever had.
  8. Obviously we've just played parachute payments FC again, but the gulf in quality in the attacking third was vast. Why don't we have any money?
  9. He's trying to spread the picks out over all his time, rather than just picking the play off final team. Hence Borner over Lovens, Windass over Wallace etc.
  10. Centre forward X2 No10 Centre midx2. Really need to think about moving some of these players on tho, as the squad is getting big (same old problem). There are a lot of CBs at the club for example, but are they the right ones?
  11. It will be potter. They lined him up a long time ago.
  12. Agents are unlikely to tell him they don't want to sign for him, are they? As with every player out of contract, they sign for the best contract for them.
  13. It's Danny Röhl's club now. Without him, the club will descend into chaos within a few weeks.
  14. Can't wait for him to train at middlewood for a few weeks, then!
  15. Just looking at the form since DR took over, top 10 would be a "no improvement" season. There are definitely signs that the coaches, players and even training facilities are being improved on over the summer. This, coupled with the fact the 3 coming down are probably not as good as the ones that went up, and the playoffs are realistic for sure.
  16. This. Football isn't a game of opinions any more, it's a game of facts.
  17. Should have been given a new deal weeks ago, tbh.
  18. Do expensive loan signings such as Furlong, Giles, Delap and Carvalho show up on transfer spend? How about free transfer/big earners like Sharp? Hull were going for it this year & moved from lower mid table to upper mid table as a result. The manager leaving isn't really a surprise.
  19. Exactly. So its not about giving a manager time, is it? rosenior has a large budget & some excellent players at this level, but they didn't even make the playoffs. They're now probably significantly overspent Vs FFP, so have to go up next year or face sanctions, just like we did.
  20. The fans part is an interesting angle on it. I think part of that is the spiralling ticket costs were asked to pay. A season ticket is a huge financial outlay now, which creates an expectation.
  21. Longevity breeds success, or success breeds longevity? Had the club given Xisco more time, would we have done better than under Röhl?
