[Matt smith]

What circumstances?

The fact we’re financially fucked

[fernandopartridge]

What circumstances?

That the club's cash position is so desperate

27 minutes until confirmation

Haha its all over the shop on here

It's Nick's fault, he's the administrator.

Any reason why sisu allowed us to bring together a great title winning squad when we were losing money hand over fist to play in Birmingham but when we're not far from a playoff championship team they decide it's time to asset strip?

Because it didnt cost as much? I had thought that a bit of a change had happened, but it doesnt seem to be the case. When we were originally relgated from the Championship I think our annual wage bill was around 9 million, further reductions were made, until we got to around the 3 / 4 million mark. They seem happy to let us run at around those figures, obviously with the promotions the costs have risen, and they arent will to fund it. Its daft, doesnt make sense. Being an established championship club makes us much more attractive to new owners...

It’s just smacks of SISU not actually having any cash to invest, even to fund any short term cash flow holes. On the positive side, I’d imagine this means they’d seriously consider credible offers for the club

As Fisher once told us ”we cant afford to be in the championship”
translates to “ we dont want to spend the money in the championship”

we need new owners with ambition who would back Robins without being stupid.
the way we are being run can anyone blame Robins if he went some where else

As I've always said... its a choice.
We are told we have a bottom five budget but it is never explained why that is.

What bothers me is they’ve probably a different idea of “credible” to you & I.

Trouble is, they will want an INcredible offer for the club.

 

[Tommo1993]

Guess that’s that.

Not even a final run out, good luck Dom

So long ago but I thought it was around £12M-£14M . overall operating £22M losses around £8M per annum?
Possibly doing better on income now but wages in excess of £15M, losses circa £5M

Well the starting line up has just confirmed it. Not even a last game to say farewell.

£3.5m

Its just sad after 5 years as a servant to our club we cant give him a proper goodbye

 

[Tommo1993]

Never easy seeing your favourite players leave. Blood is starting to boil at the thought of flogging our best defender in a state of panic with no intention of adequate replacement.

 

[PVA]

Hell of a signing for a free, been with us through the divisions and a very solid player.

What are you basing the "no intention" on?

 

[Tommo1993]

What are you basing the "no intention" on?

Track records, history and our weak financial state?

Also, “no intention of adequate replacement”

Not best pleased with it either but let’s see what the probable price is and whether anything goes to robins. Not holding out much hope but will judge once we know…although ‘undisclosed’ is likely to be the figure.

Fucking hell

Ah ok, no ones actually said it though. Never know, fee could be higher than being speculated, I'm sure we've got a list of targets for every eventuality

 

[jim20]

I think if we don’t replace him Robins will walk

 

[Tommo1993]

My gut feeling is a stinker of a season, with time to still see players leave. Will probably be blasted for my negativity but can’t seem to shake that hunch.

Sunderland’s pretty far from here

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

The plan will be to plug a short term gap and give nothing to the manager

 

[Ann Proctor-Brown]

Never mind we have the chuckle brothers,Rose and Eccles in the squad.

 

[jimmyhillsfanclub]

Thanks for playing Dom. Good luck.


Now then.....all together....Michael Rose & he did score... Hallelujah....

This is in how dare Sheaf smile in training at Arsenal or sell Walker because he looks moody territory

Panzo was probably looking down so he doesn't trip over his boot laces

I'm breaking from charachter and staying optimistic. Sad to see Hyam go, but if it keeps us operating... and hopefully Robins gets something to spend, we know he can find a bargain. Reckon it's too early to be getting downhearted

 

[hill83]

Got a couple of my body language expert mates at the game today so we’ll have an idea on a replacement by 3:05 hopefully
