macbeth Posted August 28, 2006 Share Posted August 28, 2006 I've been very good and not got involved for ages, but ..... NE5 seems to want to justify everything by comparing it with the worst he can find, and accusing anyone who disagrees of prefering one of these other worse periods to now. So prefergin a McKeag, or wanting players to leavr, or wantinrg to have a Murray or an Ellis as chairman. Everyone gets accused of these desires despite never ever expressing them. Those who see issues with the present board don't really care about 20 or 20 or 40 years ago, any more than I cared about the 40s or 30s when I was young. It was a different era. The concern is how the team, and the club finances are slowly descending, that we are slipping back from where John Hall rescued us. Using dodgy statistics which show that if you take an average finishing position for all sides, then only 4 finish above us just winds people up. The idea is to make them feel they should be grateful at being 5th best. In the same period our average finishing positoin has 8 teams very season who finish above us. Five times in the bottom half of the division. I want be proud of the team's finishing position, and its cup runs. To have had 5 European campaigns from league finishes is great, but it should be better than that, it shouldn't have 5 seasons where we were closer to relegation than the CL. 30 years ago it was hard to try and highlight what the board were doing wrong. We could only guess where the gate money went. Luckily we can now know for sure. There have been 8 financial years reported since the club became a PLC. In 5 of those individual years more money was given away to shareholders than was spent on investing in players. The overall amount spent on transfers was bigger by £15m, but in the majority of the years shareholders were viewed as more important than the team on the pitch. In one year £8.5m was spent on shareholders than the team. (Last season which has not been reported by the club yet will show big transfer investment, as the figures are not released we will have to wait to see the numbers) bluesleep.gif we all slept thro it with the last lot too Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
