chicago_shearer Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 having a quick glance elsewhere on messageboards the common theme is what the f*** are liverpool up to (and earlier when we rejected what the f*** are newcastle thinking bite their f***ing hands off you fools) taking a look dispassionately (not easy i know) its utterly mad what they paid You are right. They overpaid by a comical amount. But who cares? I don't have any more interest in the finances of NUFC than I do the finances of Microsoft or BP. The balance sheet isn't entertaining, and transfer windows are only exciting for children. We have a bad owner and a bad manager, who won't replace him. Anyone with half a brain knows that to an absolute certainty. So 35 million, 1 billion, 500k....doesn't matter. A good player these retards inherited has been sold, and will not be replaced. Net income for them, 35 mil pounds. Net loss for us, 1 good striker. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpal78 Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 depends on timing, during the summer, I would take anything in excess of 30M unless of course he becomes like top scorer of the league and bangs in goals for England left and right (in which case add adnother 20M). But yesterday, I would not have sold for any price just because it would have been impossible (as proven today) to get decent replacement. Since your post did not specify timing, I voted 30M Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delima Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 Is it important to get a replacement ? Realistically, we are safe, with or without Carroll. We don't have Europe to chase, n there are no reasons how could we get better prices for Carroll during the summer. So if anyone thinks that we could afford to sell in summer, there's no reason why we shouldn't sell now, 35M is a lot of money. It is those who take an extreme long term view, people like cp40, who should be very crossed. But although I appreciate their pov, I think they are thinking too far ahead, in this notoriously volatile industry Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ishmael Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 £35m is great buisness imo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGSC Posted February 1, 2011 Share Posted February 1, 2011 £35m is great buisness imo I don't think anyone can dispute that 35 million is a fanastic sum for Carroll, its just that every other single factor is outrageously fucked up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
