RUMBELOWS91 Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Why would he get money in January when he didn't get owt in August? Chansiri won't be pushing the boat out no matter who we have, because we'll be rank outsiders to go up by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a waste of a season, not least our 150th. Ironically, based on playing staff, we're getting the sort of results which United ought to be getting.

If you are trying to say that we are close to the bottom, then by your own logic, we are also close to the top. If you are saying we are miles off the top then the same applies and we are also miles off the bottom. Pointless thread but thanks anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joost van Aken was signed for a fee that has been reported at £3m - £4.5m. I'm assuming Vitoria Setbul were paid a loan fee for Frederico Venancio. I'm assuming George Boyd was given a lucrative contract to make him turn down a contract at Burnley. To suggest he "didn't get owt in August" is a falsehood.

The point is our points tally is closer to the bottom of the table than the top. The points off the play-off figure quoted is perhaps not the full picture.

No more cash to Carlos please. He's spunked enough up the wall, and the next lot he wastes will as usual be passed onto the fans to play for.

Tell me about it I don’t know how I’ll tell my daughter that they’ll be no Christmas presents this year, as I’ve spent all my money on Joost Van Aken 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YES The real Jordan Rhodes?YES The real Mcgeady=YES The real Mcmanaman= YES The real David Jones= YES The real Daniel Pudill= YES Is the consistancy down to Carlos=NO Is the consistancy down to these proven players =YES Were the real Abdi, Jones and Pudil footballers in their twenties? Because we've paid big money for the ones in their thirties. Did we need to spend £8m+ on Rhodes plus £2m/year wages? Was Marco Matias worth £3.1m? Is Joost van Aken worth £3m+? Was Steven Fletcher worth a 4 year contract for over £6m in wages? Was George Boyd worth a 2 year deal on massive wages? Was Urby Emmanuelson worth his massive wage? Was Lewis McGugan worth his massive wage? Are Van Aken and Venancio better than the 200+ central defenders we supposedly scouted? Has Carlos got a clue?

SiJ Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 (edited) I doubt will be spending anything in Jan. the squad is bloated as it is. Edited November 19, 2017 by SiJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrickyTrev Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 (edited) We may be just 13 points off the bottom of the table but we nearly went bust a few years back so all is well. Edited November 19, 2017 by TrickyTrev 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i used to be sc_owl Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Our recruitment has been an absolute shambles. Every time I think about it, I still can't believe what money we've seemingly wasted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 2 points off the play-offs, 11 points off relegation. Would have been a fairer title. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Mort AMB Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 I was just going to say " all we need now is for Bungle, Zippy and the Dopey Hippo to turn up " but apparently they already have on other threads . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
