Jordan Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 So with all the TV money income we've relied on selling one of our big name players to fund our summer. What a fucking joke this club is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chicken little Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 We only sell for more than they are worth and we only bid for less than they are worth. Complete hypocrisy of a transfer policy really aimed at maximizing money over getting the best player in for the team. utterly preposterous overstatement.

AyeDubbleYoo Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Cabaye could have gone, but we it looks like we wanted that £20m which nobody was interested in paying. We only sell for more than they are worth and we only bid for less than they are worth. Complete hypocrisy of a transfer policy really aimed at maximizing money over getting the best player in for the team. This is, sadly, spot on. Course it's correct, but surely trying to get a better deal for yourself than you give to your competitors is a completely good thing for the club?

Cajun Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 I agree with the last bit of his post but are we really moaning about NOT selling players now? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny Green Balls Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 Shouldn't you be happy when we are driving a hard bargain for the sale of our assets? Can't see how anyone would attack them for trying to fleece some mug club. Not really hypocrisy to want to make more on a player than he is worth and spend less on a player than he's valued. The really annoying thing is the absolute rigidity of the system though. It's fucked us more often than not. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ste Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 David Gold has spoken recently of the need to increase revenue to allow for more money to be spent on wages. This is due to Financial Fair Play. You can only spend a certain percentage of your clubs turnover on wages. Perhaps this has something to do with our one in, one out policy at the moment. Although, you'd imagine our revenue would be good enough to allow for further movement. If Cabaye stays, I hope he gets his head down and plays well. This whole thing isn't finished though, not unless the club go against the grain and show some ambition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sold Bale, Caulker, Huddlestone, Parker and Dempsey. Sunderland have sold Mignolet, Elmohamady, McClean and Kilgallon. Impossible to say how much they have increased their wage bills as anything mentioned in the media is speculation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can imagine our own revenue has a lot of potential to grow. We could definitely be doing a lot better in that regard. Just an idea really, I'm bored.

This whole thing isn't finished though, not unless the club go against the grain and show some ambition. Something I was thinking earlier. But then we have lost, Harper, Guthrie, and Perch. We have only brought in Remy so you would have to think that we must have been close or on par with our budget at the end of last season. The club have been saying that they want to bring in new faces though, so therefor those statements would contradict the possibility of us being on our percentage of turnover.

Ste Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 It's just something I have thought of, not something I'm convinced in and ready to defend to the hilt. Harper, Guthrie and Perch I'd say earnt, at maximum, a combined £35k p/w between them. Are we paying all of Remy's wages? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 "Four hours from the end of the window, Cabaye could be the last PSG recruit. According to the TV station, BeIN Sport, the player could be very close to a move to the capital. If the transfer fee hasn't yet been revealed, we should know more very soon."
