Its they way you spend it that makes you smart or not in this case. Play-off final and 1 goal away from the Premier League in season 1, play-off semi final in season 2, increased attendances (from around 22,000 before he came to an average of 26,000 in the 3 years he's been here), infrastructure improvement, sorted the pitch from being just about the worst surface in the league to being one of the best, improved shirt quality (no sponsors coming off in the wash either), the list goes on. I'd say the money he's put in and the way he's spent it deserves a bit of respect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players: ... Teams: Oh go on Players: Get fizzed. Teams: Ok, thanks. I was just stating that the summer transfer window has changed and been brought forward 5 weeks, presumably everything else including player contract will also align with the new dates. 10 years ago we didn't have transfer windows we bought players when we wanted and could sign them up to a month before the end of the season, we did want we wanted in this country. We eventually adapted transfer windows like the rest of Europe. Currently we don't have a winter break because we are not nesh, but it only a matter of time before we adopt this too so players can go abroad for sun in December and January. We have changed all the transfer windows to open the transfer windows a month early so they close when the season starts not the end of August so why would it be so insane not to move contracts to the end of May instead of the current end of June. Currently all we are doing is giving ourselves a 5 week summer transfer window instead of 10 weeks like all the other team in England. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because to do that, either one set of contracts will need to finish a month earlier or the newcomers need to start a month earlier. The players won't accept a shorter contract and the clubs don't want to spend an extra month's wages, so it just stays where it is. Most of the deals are already done and just haven't been officially announced when it comes to free transfers. Many of the clubs that have already announced free transfer players are due to Bosman deals, where they have been negotiating since the 3 month window opened in early April for domestic and 6 month window for international players opened in Jan.

mogbad Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I swear blind that if we were going into the last month of the season 20 points clear at the top of the table, some of the miserable fekkers on here would put a negative slant on it. 5 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say the money he's put in and the way he's spent it deserves a bit of respect. This season will be the first in nearly 20 years that i have a season ticket, but let's be very clear, the club has not been ran accordingly since DC came in. The club has been ran in a shambolic way and let's not forget that only 7 moths ago the owner was flouncing around saying he was selling the club. There are some delicate souls on here who simply cannot handle the fact it's not all rosy at down at S6. Some stuff is good, some is bad, some is downright shocking. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And 6 months later, he has sold it. Albeit to a company run by him. But in all seriousness, what is the bad and what is the shocking? Because a lot of the negatives I see on here seem to stem from what amounts to an internet temper tantrum rather than an actual issue.
