How has this page go to121 pages. It’s all bullshit and only the club knows what’s what. As for yourself recommending players is a joke. Carry on playing you’re computer games. I’d even take the ITK’s comments lightly . Rant over
A bit of a conflictive approach there you have, the lad is just doing what most of us do, sharing ideas about potential signings, if you dont like that kindly fuck off

Yes looking likely
Tyreece Simpson. CF. Ipswich. Heard any whispers around the place on him SBB?
He is only 20, was loaned to Swindon first half last year. Scored 9 in 25. Tractors recalled him but he didn't really play, so rejected their contract offer.
Ali Maxwell of NTT20 thinks he is a raw talent (did a video on twitter a while back) and thinks a Champ or even PL side may take him as a project. His combo of pace/power was compared to our own Vik.
When I sent Ali a message he seemed to think City may be interested with a view to schooling him up behind Gyorkeres this year before cashing in on the Swede next Summer?

The 'Brentford model' is you buy a player for £2m, sell him for £10m, then reinvest the £10m in a few more £2-3m players who you hope will be worth £10-15m in a couple of years. The £15m player becomes three £5m players and then you have a real good chance at taking on the parachute payment teams for promotion.

It doesn't work if we use that £8-10m we get from selling Hamer to shore up the books, offset improved contracts and get some loans in who will only be here a year and have no resale value.

That's what worries me about SBB's comments and it should worry others. We can't think we'll realistically improve or have a chance at promotion by selling our best players and not replacing them properly. If we have to sell our TWO best players to be able to invest in the team that's a plan destined for failure.
Your maths doesn’t work

What I don't understand is the following.


Last season we got Gyok for 1, Mill, sheaf for 750k

So that's 1.75 million in fees

Season before, Hamer for 1.3, Walker for a reported 1 Mill

So, an average of around £2 Million in Transfer fees seems available to MR in the summer yes?


So when we have record season ticket sales, a much higher average attendance than planned for, a better F+B and rental deal, along with club record merchandise sales, why the fuck are we apparently so skint?

This is the bit that gets me. We've done our bit, everything asked of us all, financially and vocally. About time they did

And this is coming from someone whos actually a SISU advocate since 2017
Covid and no player sales and contract extensions and wage increases

I’ve just read 10 pages and you guys have absolutely lost the fucking plot.

Truly embarrassing bed wetting a week into the transfer window when all that’s happened is we’ve signed palmer

We’ve improved every single season under robins and everyone’s bitched and moaned about the signings every summer.

get a grip

Max Biamou is a free agent and posted a picture on his story of him in a city shirt back in 2017/18 season saying “trust the process” is he a potential fringe player…… 👀👀

I’m fairly relaxed about it all. The management team know what they are doing. Trust the process.

The fans that moan that we aren’t signing 8/9 players are the ones that, when we do, they say “we’re signing everyone’s deadwood”.

There will be players we want and don’t get. That’s why you have contingencies. I’d much rather 2-3 signings that fit with the style and add to it than 5/6 ‘names’ that don’t.

Just seen on Twitter that Bright is available again as he has been sacked by the team in Jerusalem for not training and another more serious misdemeanour. Waste of talent that man.

Waste of talent? A waste of opportunities seems more accurate 😂

Madness. Bound to get at least one Cov fan on Twitter saying he should come back and get another chance.

The guy must have the most overworked agent in football

Be interesting to see who the fringe players are that'll come in, if they are young prospects from lower leagues or players released from Prem clubs
