hawksmore Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 now we'll see how big DC's balls are. Either they will shrink like raisins and he'll head back off to sell daddy's tuna again, or he's gonna wade in and drop his load on a summer spending spree to get us promoted. We jizzed at least £500k on Urby, imagine how bad DC feels about that now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 (edited) What irks me is that we were told we were making financial decisions mindful of FFP. Now that can be interpreted various ways including that we were going to risk breaching it if we didn’t succeed, but to me it meant that we wouldn’t do anything to jeapordise the future ability of the club to challenge.

In danger of getting too technical here. The point I was trying to make is that just because the auditor has signed the accounts off doesn't indicate we will not fail FFP next year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Costello 77 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 16 minutes ago, vulva said: A comment he made at one of the recent fans groups resonated. Something along the lines of not needing the money, but needing the income. We are in a right pickle. Close the purse strings, and we remain in the pickle. Spending big appears the only way out, as daft as that ma sound. Logic would argue to bring the kids through, but that's a very long term plan, and I don't think DC had any intentions of being here long term. Is spending big an option anymore.. FFP or no FFP? We don't know so it's pointless speculating about our finances. Why am I asking this question? We don't know. FFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WalthamOwl Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 24 minutes ago, Mr Farrell said: It's not really a shock though is it ? Plenty have been asking questions for 12 months at least. In a way it's a relief. We know where we are now. We've foooked up badly and have to cut our cloth accordingly, learn from Carlos's and the Chairmans mistakes , and move forward. Personally this makes me believe even more that we need a manager that knows the Championship and working on a small budget. I like Jos but with what will probably be next to no money and a lack of knowledge of the English game we could do with someone else in change next season.

My only card is that he took the gamble and very nearly won we all egged him on revelled in the big signings, flocked to the ground in bigger numbers for many a season. Sang our positives songs and dared to dream. That's all I have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No disrespect to him but his appointment makes perfect sense now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
