  1. Will Hughes won the FL Young player of the year in 2014. Keep looking. Lookman won the Championship young player of the year award in his year, also known as apprentice award, but for players 18 or under - still player of the year though. Keep looking through wiki BDS. You'll find all you need soon pal.
  2. Hughes won it in 2014. Palmer wasn't within the three I mentioned. Keep up BDS. Zaha and Lookman the other 2. Although he did have an exceptional season - helping to guide Huddersfield to promotion
  3. You don't think they had exceptional seasons? All three got young player of the year/player of the year in their respected seasons....do you even know what you are talking about?
  4. The lads I named were all teenagers. Another one was Wilfired Zaha. Lookman was great at Charlton. Will Hughes at Derby. As I said, the list is endless of teenagers that have had success at this level.
  5. Tammy Abraham. Kasey Palmer Lewis Cook In fact, the list is endless at how many young lads have had exceptional seasons in the Championship..............lol
  6. No sidestepping. Bennett and Palmer are more experienced in this league. But that's 2 men for 2 positions. If one of them gets injured that leaves Samuel - Woodburn is 100% better and more experienced at a higher level. Palmer is an excellent player, no doubt. He's a great signing. He's also better than anything we have here permanently. If you believe Palmer and Bennett alone are good enough for this division and we wouldn't be better off by bringing in players like Woodburn out on them wings then you're either delusional or lying. Besides, is Bennett even an out and out winger anymore? I preferred him in centre midfield personally.
  7. If Dominic Samuel was as good Ben Woodburn he'd be playing for his country at every level since he was 15 and be coveted by great managers such as Klopp. Take the Rovers goggles off please. Irrelevant anyway as he's off to Sheff Utd. Good luck to the lad. As a side note, Samuel has only played roughly 20 games in this division spread over 6 years. Let's not bark about experience and then start using him as an example.
  8. He's a better option than we have now. Rated highly by one of the best coaches in the world. Has half a dozen international appearances + a dozen PL appearances to his name combined with a few cup appearances here and there. More experience at a higher level than Rothwell. Definitely would have been an excellent option on the left. He's also Liverpool's youngest every goalscorer and Wales' second youngest goalscorer - only Bale beats him. I'd take him here any day of the week.
  9. Ben Woodburn is closing in on a Sheffield United loan deal. Would have been an excellent option for us in the attacking third. Plays left wing or up front - just what we need. Have to assume Mowbray doesn't fancy him as much as Klopp or we'd have surely gone in for him.
  10. Coyle was the main reason but not the only blueboy. The squad simply wasn't good enough over the course of 46 games and that's why we got relegated. Our squad is better now, our manager is better now but it certainly doesn't mean we can't fall into a relegation battle. Better teams than this have been sent down before I can assure you of that.
  11. He played in Huddersfield's team when they got promoted. Decent player. Can't remember if he was a wide man or not but know he has a bit about him. Decent.
  12. We should be over the moon she's split from Dack. I said it when they got together women like her are fucking trouble. No doubt in his ear about a move back down London so she can mingle with the elite. Good riddance to the plastic talentless shitebag.
  13. Jack Harrison's 4 games at Championship level definitely, 100%, undoubtedly, irrefutably, undeniably makes him a better signing than Marcus Maddison will be.... ....according to Chaddy.
  14. Man City's youngsters gave Liverpool a good 60 minutes last night. Be interesting to see if our lad played. If our lad exists, that is.
  15. Maybe he saw the ST sales and thought "well, I can spend!"
  16. That is exactly the case. Financial Fair Play allows clubs like Derby to flaunt the rules to gamble on promotion and, if they don't, reign themselves back in within 3. Bournemouth gambled, got up and paid the fine with the substantial prize on offer in the PL. Also notice how Derby County's wages went up £10m in a single year. Isn't that actually deliberately flaunting FFP rules?
  17. I don't know if you are being purposely disingenuous or actually aren't getting it. The £11m you are claiming they gain per season in ST sales doesn't 100% go on transfer sales. You have policing, staffing, power etc (general overheads of a business) to deduce from that (which you conveniently summed up as half a million hahahahaha). Likewise, you also get further income from commercial activity/sponsorship. The £80m sum also doesn't include additional fees that come with any transfer (ie: huge agent fees, signing on fees, bonuses). They, like pretty much every Championship club, fails to turn a profit. Derby CountyCompany name: The Derby County Football ClubOwned by: Sevco 5112, owned by Candy Crush tycoon Mel MorrisTurnover: £22.6m (£21.5m)Pre-tax loss: £14.7m (-£10.1m)Staff costs: £31.9m (£21.8m)Wage-to-turnover ratio: 141 per centHighest paid director: £194,583 (£449,578)Net debt: Not stated; £3m bank loanBank: BarclaysAuditor: Smith CooperY/E: 30 June 2016 That is the fees spent by Derby published June 17. Blackburn RoversCompany name: Blackburn Rovers Football and AthleticOwned by: Venky's London Ltd, owned by Venkateshwara Hatcheries Private, an Indian company with interests in poultry, processed food, animal vaccines and pharmaceuticalsTurnover: £22m (£22.4m)Pre-tax loss: £1.5m (-£17.3m)Staff costs: £25.3m (£30.1m)Wage-to-turnover ratio: 115 per centHighest paid director: £150,304 (£177,969)Net debt: Not stated, loans of £87.3m (£87.1m) to parent and £14.2m (£12.9m) bank overdraftBank: State Bank of IndiaAuditor: PM+M Solutions for BusinessY/E: 30 June 2016 This is ours. Everything about Derby's books screams breaking FFP in comparison to ours but it's only us who uses the rules as a refusal to spend in case of "non-compliance." Wake up will you. To put it into perspective in 15/16 they spent approx 40m and gained nothing. Didn't sell a player for a fee. That's a substantial increase in wages, fees spent and not a single figure to balance it back. No action was taken.
  18. Derby's transfer expenditure comes to approx £80m over the previous 4 years. From that they have gained approx. £37m back. This is taking fees only into account. I'm lead to believe the selling club doesn't receive any additional funds (save bonuses/clauses) from a sale. Likewise they don't pay any fees. As an example, when Derby received approx. £37m for their players that is the bottom line save for any future % fee. The benefit is the lump sump/release of wages. However, they have spent £80m on incomings. This sum is the fee to the selling club only. It doesn't take into account agent fees, signing on fees and, of course, the wage. By a very crude measurement you'd have to expect that Derby's transfer outgoings are 75% higher than their incomings taking into account the additional fees occurred. Likewise, you'd expect their wage bill has got significantly higher simply by assessing their incomings vs their outgoings. Their ST sales are irrelevant in comparison to their gargantuan spending over the previous half a decade.
  19. You forget to deduct the cost of staffing, electricity, policing etc etc from your £7m a year have put forward as a full and final profit from ST sales. However convenient for you.
  20. Hahahahahahahahahaha...... Hahahahahahahahahahahaha
  21. Liverpool supposedly offloading 10+ players. Could do a lot worse than players on loan like Woodburn. Sheff Utd interested in him surely we can rival that
  22. Give me one Evans over 5 Lowe's any day of the week. He did. A pal of mine who supports Oldham said that he had games where he disappeared but more often than not you could count on him for a good performance. Like any young player you fade in and out, have bad spells. Not a bad player but obviously thought he was a bit better than he was at the time. It's funny how you turn a complete round turn on anything that doesn't go for your agenda. He hasn't just had "1 good game against us" and hasn't done badly under every manager since. I seem to remember you banging the drum of never judging a player before you've seen them - you openly admit it's not fair to judge him under Coyle so where has this damming opinion of him come from? How many times have you seen him in his 30+ apps for Oldham? 1 - against us? A good performance...
  23. Jason Lowe definitely played right back for a lot of our relegation campaign, at least under Coyle. It was Mowbray who started using Nyambe there. The Oldham manager criticised him once if I remember and it was around the time his loan came to an end and they wanted to sign him. They did sign him. It wouldn't be unheard of for a manager to downplay a players qualities he wants to buy. If he was as critical of him as you make out he wouldn't have signed him on a 2 and a half year deal. As Tyrone made out too, if you was present at Oldham's ground that season, you'd have seen how he ran rings around our midfield then. He has the potential to be a decent Championship player and certainly possesses more midfield qualities than Akpan and Lowe combined. Anyway this is an irrelevant argument as he isn't our player or a transfer target How rich. You've spent the last 45 pages jumping down the neck of people who have vented their concerns (ergo opinions) and telling them how wrong they are.
