The club turned down offers for certainly Hamer and O'Hare because they weren't anywhere near their overinflated value. For what it's worth Burnley may have met the club's valuation if it were not for his injury but that's just sheer bad luck. Regardless, that has clearly caused the club to...

Selling intangible assets to remain solvent is fundamental to our business model - no one with sense is saying otherwise. We're in this position because no sales have been made in two seasons. However reinvestment back into the playing side of things is vital to ensuring that the conveyor belt...

Year on year improvement has been catalysed by investment back into the playing squad when sales have been made. That re-investment has clearly stopped due to an urgent need to cover operational costs which vastly exceed turnover.

It's our third season in the Championship and the club is now entirely reliant on average loan signings and free agents and sales are being pushed through without the blessing of the manager - who for all intents and purposes has been purported to have total say on who's sold - with little to no...

The strategy worked in League One/Two, it doesn't in the Championship.

Having trivial questions answered that are utterly meaningless in the grand scheme of things is completely mundane and a waste of time. It hardly equates to building rapport. As I've said to you repeatedly before, if Boddy is simply unwilling to answer questions that really are vital in the...

I mean I've been saying this for a while. It's no secret that in order to improve commercially - which is vital really given our parasitic owners - someone of a far better calibre really should've been appointed. He's incredibly limited, and his track record of doing very little since he got...

Joe Bloggs from Willenhall can't afford to pay his gas bill but that makes it OK for the club to treat paying supporters with utter contempt? Your logic is flawless.

I think our Brentford model might be broken.

Christ you have a hefty sized chip on your shoulder don't you. Not that I need to justify myself to the likes of you but my company isn't accepting a refund actually. The club clearly needs the money far more than I do currently. Would you do the same as you're apparently CCFC's No.1. fan?

So my company spends thousands on a box per year and when we come to use it we can't because there is a pre-existing booking that was conveniently kept from box holders until the 11th hour. Would you think it's acceptable if you paid for a venue then a few days prior they emailed saying: sorry...

What an idiotic take.

Is it coffin shaped as I'll happily opt for it if so.

Could be worse. I've just been informed that I can't sit in my box due to a pre-existing booking at the stadium. Nice of them to give me notice. The entire operation is an utter farce.

As suspected. Very disappointing really but I can't say I'm all that surprised.

Indeed. Like I said in another post it's going to be a very interesting week as one can assume that another could potentially go, unless the club can hold out until January.

Probably a combination of mitigating inevitable cashflow issues in the very short term and to pay for instalments on Gyokeres and Sheaf. The sale of Hyam reeks of panic to me as clearly there's just not the level of interest in Gyokeres or Hamer as initially hoped, and I think O'Hare was...

Not really there was just far more room to manoeuvre in L1. I'd imagine the fees paid for Kastaneer, Allen, Jobello, and Godden that year totalled around seven figures give or take. Profit on player sales for that year was £3,818,867, making up over a third of the £9,038,803 operating costs...

People forget that in the summer of the St Andrews move the club would've received the second instalment from McNulty, sold both Chaplin and Bayliss as well as McCallum in January. Conversely, the club hasn't received a windfall from a player sale/sell-on clause since Wilson was sold two years...

Boddy is quoted to have said it on a podcast and I'm sure he's repeated the comment publicly in the press as well. It's an idiotic comparison.
