Well they turned up for the games at least. Guess that's contesting.

as already mentioned they didnt lose alot of them and the defeats were narrow. thats contesting. no guessing required.

Do you think we played well in those games?

 

[covcity4life]

i think we contested them

 

[matesx]

If you study the wins ratio from Xmas till his departing it would suggest we never really competed.

 

[Joy Division]

i think we contested them

aka = we took part in the contest. But were found out to be inadequate.

aka we took part in the contest and either didnt lose or lost by 1 goal margins. no blowouts

 

[Joy Division]

We 'only' lost by one goal margins. Oh guess that's all okay then.

 

[matesx]

didn't we win about 8 in the last 35 of his games?

shocking

 

[Paul Jones]

so Slade till June
if there was a new investor - what pay off do you think that would involve - not a lot
And if Malaka has real news, and not trying to Thai us in knots -then a 50k pay off would not be the make or break of the deal
In fact they may be happier having somebody in now to steady the ship

Why the "Thai"? Do you have some info on the potential buyers?

He only went to two games under him this season

Same as thorn in the championship. That's ok then

 

[Broken Hearted Sky Blue]

The new broom would still have the same hand controlling it, SISU have to go.

A bit like Triggers broom??

Mowbray is a manager thorn wasnt. Was no need to panic richard

 

[singers_pore]

I don't believe those numbers in the accounts come close to the salaries of the team, a few coaches and backroom staff - we must be paying a big chunk somewhere else in "salaries" . Otherwise, as you say, it doesn't add up. The club breaks even; even after paying £x for consultancy is my guess.

My thoughts exactly. The staff costs number in the accounts includes money being paid out to SISU and directors. Yes I know the accounts are audited but having worked as an auditor I know that many companies break the rules without penalty.

Which money is going to SISU from staff costs?

He's no proof but he knows how it works. Nudge, nudge, wink, wink. Repeat it a few times and it's a new "fact".

 

[Irish Sky Blue]

Yes, it is a good appointment so no need to be "sad".

The sadness is due to the fact that any appointment, good or bad means that it is less likely Sisu will go.With regard to Russel Slade, he has always seemed like a good chap. Liked his comments about fans having the right to protest after our game at Charlton. However I think he is on to a hiding to nothing here and any appointment is simply papering over the cracks.

What is his job then if it is not what he says it is?

 

[torchomatic]

I don't care if he's the greatest accountant on earth. The accounts say what they say. There is zero proof they have been tampered with or doctored in any way. Just ammo for the conspiracy theorists, I suppose.

SISU weren't off anyway, so this is a GOOD thing. No need to be sad or negative. Surely, you want what is best for your football club?

Did he say that's what your beloved sisu are doing?

 

[torchomatic]

Did he say that's what your beloved sisu are doing?

FFS.

 

[Nick]

Did he say that's what your beloved sisu are doing?

It is if they are giving themselves loads of money and saying it's staff costs.

Beloved ha

Goes for you too nick, its quite clear. Did he say that's what sisu are doing?

I'm sure you can read, look at his post.

 

[idm1975]

Ok I read it again.....what am I supposed to be seeing? He has not insulted your sisu there

 

[torchomatic]

I don't have a SISU.

 

[Nick]

Erm, yes.

Still, you can still keep saying "your sisu" and petty shit because people are questioning something that somebody has made up.

Who made what up?

 

[idm1975]

I don't have a SISU.

No, they have you!

 

[Brylowes]

Yes, it is a good appointment so no need to be "sad".

I agree, I think it's a decent appointment, I also think you will be one of, if not the first
To jump on his back when it inevitably goes wrong, the problems at this club run much
Deeper than the manager.
