  1. The statement was meaningless. You're absolutely right, no statement should ever have the words such as should in them. Amateurs.
  2. Another statement that is full of words but says nothing at all. Hasn't the problem always been "technical and procedural issues" with this case so nothing has changed at all. In other words, the statement is saying they have the money and do want to fund the club but cannot due to technical and procedural issues. Nothing has changed at all.
  3. Venkys will never want to sell the club. They'll only sell if they are forced to. I despise them.
  4. Our fixture list may not be as bad as it looks. Bristol City and Sunderland have nothing to play for and are pretty average teams so they're the best type of teams to play at this stage of the season. Sheff W at home is very winnable if we have our full team out. Leicester will prob be up come the last day of the season so I could see them being on their holidays at that point. Cov will now have a fixture pile up with being in the semis of the FA Cup. They may even know their play off fate by the time we play them anyway with some tough games to come, so that could be a dead rubber for them. I don't see us taking any points from Ipswich, Leeds, or Saints though. They score too many goals for us to be able to grind out a result against those teams. We don't look like we have many goals in us right now.
  5. Another draw but this one is a good one. A very good one when you look at the results of our relegation rivals. Birmingham and Hudds fluffed their lines today. Both had very winnable fixtures. I thought they'd both be level with us come 5pm today.
  6. Our best half for a while but we haven't posed any real threat. Boro look a bit leggy with lots of loose passes. Could be a big day for us with other results going our way at the moment. We'll probably end up losing 1-0 though.
  7. I think we actually may get a result tomorrow. Boro have not been great at home this year and we generally do OK at the Riverside. We had a rest in midweek whereas they had a game so I think we may nick a draw. Probably a drab 1-1.
  8. Oh that's incredibly optimistic. They will continue to own the club but say the club must become self sufficient. The challenge could potentially come in around 12 months time when we will have no assets to sell and venkys are not able to send cash over. We have big problems then.
  9. What a joke. Probably the best case scenario for Venkys. They can claim to still be committed and blame external circumstances for not being able to put money into the club. Meanwhile, we sell every and any player of any quality to cover "operational costs" whilst continuing to sign players from the fourth tier of German football and semi-pro footballers.
  10. I'd be surprised if it gets delayed again given the time already spent on this. Ultimately you cannot stop people from spending their money from how they want so I'm sure it will be resolved. But I could be wrong.
  11. I'm sure the court case will go in Venkys favour.
  12. Relegation won't be a factor, they couldnt care less about that. Fan protests are not something that they care about either nor would they probably be aware of them happening. The only way Venky's ever leave is if they are forced to for political or economic forces that are out of their control. The Indian government are probably our best hope.
  13. Sammie is going whatever decision we are in. He deserves much better than this shambles of a club. We won't get £10m for him though.
  14. I don't think it will be as catastrophic financially as last time we got relegated. We've banked £22m from Wharton and have around £4m coming from Raya. We had zero assets to sell last time we went down but we have Szmodics and Carter we can sell for decent money this time around too so we'll be OK financially. Plus there's a new TV deal which means lge 1 clubs will get 25% more than they do now and the players will have clauses to slash their wages. What is does mean is that player sales will cover any losses very easily, but how do we then replace the small amount of quality players we do have whilst also adding quality in other areas of the squad that desperately need replenishing. Looking at the clubs in league 1, it's a very poor league that we'd do well in. The likes of Garret, Leonard, Gilsenan would do very well in lge 1. But a club like ours should not be anywhere near that league. Thank you Venkys.
