True, but would that 10M not have been better invested into improving the academy and facilities rather than on a squad filler?

The trouble with some of his signings was that he was simply getings bodies through the door rather than saving his limited budget to get a genuine talent or two in. Muto is the prime example, almost 10M and played half a dozen games in total. Sels was a disaster but at least we got the majority of the fee back for him and Hanley as well, we'll get nothing for Muto.

10 teams in it and 8 qualify for the next round, joke.

He'll be on around 10k a week basic for doing fuck all then get another 10k appearance fee for his customary two minute end of game sub cameo booking. If he had any decency and/or plenty in the bank he'd retire.

All six teams should be demoted to league one and their places filled with the next best chamionshit teams. Would make things more interesting for our mackem friends next season, with the added bonus we might finish in the top 10.

FUCKING HELL.

Hardly kicked a ball in 18 months, no thanks.

Don't forget Paully D..........

We'll get nowt for the latter two, not that Muto is any loss whatsoever. Edit: Maybe a couple of mil for Lejeune.

Just wandering who realsitically we can move on to generate some cash for transfers this summer? Gayle to a championshit club for maybe £5M? One of the Longstaffs for a similar amount? Couple of million for Darlow if Woodman comes back? 250k off Bradford for Hendrick? Not really much to add to our £12M "War" chest is it?

I could be wrong but I doubt he will have been financially astute with his money.

Could come in handy if you ever run out of bog roll.

Even Gateshead wouldn't take this fucker on for £200 a week.

Farewell sweet prince.

Fuck that, think Metro and you immediately associate it with scratters.

Shit idea, it'll just mean a huge surge in ET and penalty shoot outs to decide winners.

Wish we could go back to then, when we had a decent team, I was 3 stone lighter and still had hair.

£12 million . Have we gone back in time to 1995? And the last thing we should be doing is signing ageing free transfers, thats what them lot down the road got into the habit of doing and look where they are now.....

I've put a daft tenner on us to win and both teams to score.

17th is the target, never forget that.

I think we'd get that for him tbh, 70 is silly money as there are still question marks over his injury/fitness record.

This. Could be the next Given. He's eight years younger than Dubravka ffs.

If anyone comes in with a bid north of £40M he'll be off.

He's not coming to play for a fat clown who's ambition is to finish 10th and started Sean Longstaff ahead of him.

Lets be honest, if Arsenal are willing to sell he'll have better options than us.
