Vinny Green Balls Posted Tuesday at 18:46 Share Posted Tuesday at 18:46 5 minutes ago, Menace said: I think even the most extreme happy clapper (not saying Shearergol is) can admit this summer has been an absolute shit show. Constantly mentioning Ashley every time people are visibly upset about something is so lame. ...as is the constant moaning that has gone on since the takeover, apart from a blip of ten good games here and there. It has been a very very poor off season so far, yes. But some have constantly peddled pessimism to such a comical extent, and pretend that they weren't utterly wrong then...and then go on to play the victim about how thye have been marginalized by the forum clique. The few lunatics have been running the asylum for a good while on this forum. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nucasol Posted Tuesday at 18:48 Share Posted Tuesday at 18:48 1 minute ago, Gawalls said: I feel like you’re playing down with “highlight when the club hasn’t done well” - on this page alone I’ve read “heads need to roll”, “absolute travesty” and “this summers been a shit show” Concur that’s absolute nonsense and genuine bed wetting. There’s a balance to it all. Legitimate criticism when it’s deserved. I’ll judge when the window is shut but out momentum just feels seems somewhat curbed by signing only Lloyd Kelly and a couple of no hope goalies.

Jackie Broon Posted Tuesday at 18:48 Share Posted Tuesday at 18:48 15 minutes ago, Gawalls said: It isn’t - it’s three years My apologies for it being a Villa site That's the FFP accounts but fees and wages are amortised over the length of the player's contract in the accounts. So, for example, a player that we signed 5 years ago for 50m would be 10m each year for 5 years. This year they would be £30m in the 3 year FFP accounts, the year after £20, the year after £10. It wouldn't actually be until 8 years after signing that their fee would be gone from the FFP accounts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wallsendmag Posted Tuesday at 18:51 Share Posted Tuesday at 18:51 10 minutes ago, Ste said: The club prioritises European qualification imo, though obviously the cup presents a route into that, winning the cup is small compared to what European football brings. They've never stated that though. We've taken the cups very seriously the last few years and we qualified for the CL the same season we reached the LC final so it wasn't much of a hindrance to our league form that year. Our best chance of breaking our trophy drought is through the League Cup (which would also qualify us for Europe) and I can't see us smashing our transfer record on a player who can't even play in it. I think by Palace playing him tonight they are saying he's not for sale. Look elsewhere. We should have been doing that a fortnight ago mind! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We probably already have - we have absolutely no proof that we’ve given a shit since the last bid was turned down and this isn’t them making it seem to press and possibly Guehi they did right by him.
