Roscoe P. Coltrane Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 We were asked to keep paying the prices .. The club would keep the same level of spending.. Hardly paid any kind of high transfer fees since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are zero examples of clubs doing it the way you suggest is the successful way So you claim, produce the evidence. All I'm saying is that the bigger your budget for players it improves your chances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

matthefish2002 Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 I agree in someways Sheffield United got lucky with appointing Wilder. But during his time they make sure they do they homework on potential signings. You are never going to get everyone signing right but by doing this you make sure you keep mistakes to a minimum. We on the other hand in the 2016/17 season signed players as they sounded good and a 'gift to the fans' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To say that there are barely any POTG is nonsense. 16/17 there was as I said. This season there’ll be around 21k season tickets. We’ll have made virtually zero ticket POTG money against Charlton. Even on Saturday, we’ve sold around 4k POTG tickets so that’ll be about 100k in total revenue from ticket sales we’ve made from the last two home games? I can’t see where you’ve got a 60% increase in match day revenue from Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is going on right now is not too far away from the realy dark days of the early 00s. It is that bad. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree they have had a large slice of luck however they have made their own luck in some cases. I.e selling players at the right time. Ill make no further comment on this. Need to bleach myself down after a good birching for going anywhere near giving them praise.

If we had got promoted, then they would probably get away with it, as we all know the PL attracts new fans. As it is, we are a poor Championship team, charging more money than some Premier League teams. Bonkers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because of loads of reasons. There are no guarantees. Which manager would take the lower budget if offered the choice? If you buy a first eleven all rated 7 out of 10. Surely that will give a better chance than a team made up of players rated 6 out of 10 but not as good as a team rated 8 out of 10. Would you rather go into a new season with players rated higher or lower? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
