Forever Blue

I thought Eustace was part of the transfer committee along with Waggott and Park? Surely he should have a major say in who we sign as he’s in charge of the team. At least it puts to bed the ‘yes man’ nonsense that was dreamt up by some.

What’s with all the Ben Benson hate? Is he shafting everyone’s wife? 🤔

Cheers. Are we actively pursuing them? Can’t imagine we’ll be spending the money needed to get Stansfield.

Just catching up.Which players is Nixon (or any other journo) linking us with now?

You’d never get a Pears!

This is what I’ve said all along. They are choosing not to fund, which is far worse than being unable to fund. Which is why I questioned WATR’s stance on not wanting them gone.

I suppose it depends how much they are asking for a guy with 6 months left on his contract who is 29. The ‘full amount’ might be a stupid amount.

You’d have to know what’s at stake to know why they are fighting it. What are the implications to their business of losing the case? What are the potential punishments they face if they lose? etc

Or nothing will change. The player sales already made will cover losses for at least another year, dependant of course on how the payments are structured. If the owners can’t/won’t send funds then a tipping point will eventually be reached, but it won’t be until the £30m+ received in transfer fees has run out.

No idea who he is but looks like he’s got beef with someone out on the pitch.

You would think Venksters would have known of a possible delay and that’s why we’ve not touched the Wharton/Raya/Szmodics money. Everything spent so far has been covered by Gally/Wahlstedt/Telalovic. So the latest court delay (if true) may not affect the transfer plans in this window.

If true that it has been delayed, then I’m looking forward to how this will be communicated by the club. I’m guessing ‘the owners will continue to fund the losses’ line will be trotted out. That clearly isn’t an adequate response so also looking forward to seeing how the Supporters groups respond. WATR said they would reevaluate their stance after Aug 20th as I recall. The kicking of the can down the road can’t go on forever.

This true?

I think you’ve said that to every player we’ve been linked with 😉

He said he’d be back in a few days and that nothing would come out about the court case till later in the week anyway. So I’m guessing more Morecambe than Mumbai, and more Yarhshur Dales than Delhi.

Thanks. I thought he looked a good un. Where does Stephen play? And do we have the new Wharton’s on our hands?!

Jackson posted on his twitter yesterday that he was off on holiday with his family. Absolutely scandalous dereliction of duty 🤣

How’s Edmonson doing? He looked a good player from his brief cameo against Harrogate in the cup (If I’m thinking of the right player - left footed CM)

I’m expecting we’ll go live to @Herbie6590 outside the courtroom at any minute for an exclusive report…

Not quite the OJ Simpson trial then. I was hoping to see Big Baz try on a goalkeeping glove😉

He’s not in La Liga, he’s in the Spanish 2nd division edit: he’s in la liga, I’m taking shite. As you were😉

The criticism is silly based on the back of a bit of hearsay. Where’s the long ball stuff come from? It’s nothing like it. And if it was he would have been happy with Gueye, and not against selling Gally who is not suited to long ball football.

Nobbers closing in on Heckingbottom according to Nixon

One of the greats was Hagi! Loved watching him play.

JE spoke about Travis before the Derby game. Said he saw Travis as a leader who is a vital part of the team. Unless JE is full of shit that suggests he won’t be happy to lose him.
