  1. He'd do a better job than Broughton. £500 k loan deal for half a season with an option to purchase for 7m Euros was it?
  2. Nurse? !!!! Bloody Hell, Ipswich Southampton and Leeds aren't Manchester City or Barcelona. Get a grip! We should be targeting something off every game. One of the three mentioned above might have an off day when we play them and I think it's more likely we'll beat one of them then routinely roll over all three of the so called "lesser" sides.
  3. Agreed, but subject to the word "should" they've put a statement out saying the recent financial issues are practically resolved. Whether they intended to do that may be a moot point but they can hardly use the Court proceedings as an excuse going forward now.
  4. Difficult not to think otherwise isn't it. Waggott will be gutted if he has to send our (sorry the leased) new bus back.
  5. The "statement" is quite clear in the inference that whatever problems there were previously as regards getting funding over have allegedly now more or less been resolved and there are only a few procedural points to iron out. Everyone should keep a copy of this statement close to hand in case there is no change to the current situation. The Club and owners will have hung themselves by their own petard should that turn out to be the case.
  6. To be fair JDT, offered his resignation (understandably) after the Mcguire debacle and it was accepted.
  7. It was allegedly Gary Bowyer's Dad Ian, of former Notts Forest fame under Cloughie, who was involved in the scouting when we had that relatively golden recruitment period. How we could do with someone at the Club now who knows the game and has a real eye for a player instead of Broughton and legions of analysts who wouldn't know a decent player if they tripped over them.
  8. Is the chant "I don't care about Venky's" simply that one line chanted over and over? Or is it part of a longer song with some additional context? If not its a bit of an odd message to send out, to the uninitiated it sounds like those singing it aren't too bothered either way way whether Venky's stay or go.
  9. I think we'll probably get at least one result we weren't expecting against sides higher up in the table and continue to fail to impress in the games we think we should win. Whether that will start against Ipswich remains to be seen.
  10. It's Nixon, so I'd treat the story with a lorry load of salt but even if it were true they'd have to be fairly quick to sell us as a PL Club given that promotion is arguably a licence to get tubbed for a season then go straight back down. All indications up to now (before the current Court case) were that they'd never consider selling, ever, and in the unlikely event we did ever get promoted under them you'd think being in the Premier League would make them less not more inclined to sell.
  11. Absolutely spot on. Whilst we know everything boils down to the owners I have no idea whatsoever why some people insist on giving Broughton and to a lesser extent Waggott a free ride. Broughton has signed three strikers in his time at the Club none of whom have registered a single goal for us and one of which wasn't even fit enough to play. He spent what there was of the summer budget on the calamitous Leo and what there was of the winter budget on a prospect that now we are told cant play because he needs protecting. And also brought in a 37 year old and a crock who lasted 15 mins He's also overseen two absolutely unprecedented January cock ups in succession. Apart from that he's done OK I suppose. Lol. Currently keeping his head down whilst all the fall out from January dies down and then will no doubt re-emerge unscathed next season like nothing has happened. Its sickening. A lot of people don't even like Waggott being given grief because they claim it deflects from the real problem which is the owners. I really don't understand this point of view - if they're doing a terrible job, both should be called out for it.
  12. Apologies if it was mentioned earlier in the thread but Elliott Jackson at the LT was being a bit of a cheeky bastard this week when he started a story with the headline that Eustace wasn't going to let all the "noise" about the owners situation deflect from his preparation for yesterday's game. Thereby insinuating that any concern about the subject is a bit of a fuss about nothing. That sort of attitude will look a bit silly if the situation does not resolve itself and we ultimately end up being relegated and/or going into administration. I doubt he'd be so flippant if the Club he supported was in a similar boat, that's if he supports anyone.
  13. Might as well give Telalovic an extended run in the team and see if he can discover some form as Gallagher literally offers nothing, so even in the worst case scenario you'd not be particularly any worse off. It's like the argument about selling Gallagher. Even if he hadn't been replaced we'd not be any worse off on the pitch and at least we'd have had the money in the Bank. Furthermore to have turned down a reported £2m for him with six months to go on his deal, with the potential there to have replaced him permanently at equal or less cost with the younger Mcguire was particularly barking even by our standards.
  14. Strange to see Hedges being praised to the rafters, I think he is absolute garbage, a complete waste of money even at £200k. The ultimate journeyman footballer. Conversely whilst Dolan is a bit hit and miss I think he has a lot more quality about him and generally puts in a far better shift. Each to their own I guess.
  15. His major failing is he crosses the white line. Decent point today though in isolation. Just need a couple of wins from anywhere.
