If only our problems amounted to a penalty miss, how people defend this shower of shitDo you mean like the guy near me who shouted fuck off sisu when Murphy missed a penalty?
They told us the budget this year (£2m) didn't they?
Right enough already Dong you clearly know all the budgets by league one so list them in order.
If you do not have these facts stop making this twatish comment!
As someone has said no-one truly knows the above as are in 12th anyhow TM has underachieved for
budget and should go now then? as you say we have a 8th-6th budget whatever that means.
6th/8th makes more sense to me!
We have sold 2 or 3 players in 3 years haven't we? If it's all about swapping and changing and not a settled side, hasn't that been down to the manager?
Dong how would sisu or rather you know the other team budgets or the respective team below us which you have said should be used as a performance barometer? I would not imagine other sides would willingly disclose them?
Thanks Dave so Waggott and Brookfield are saying 6th yet Dong keeps on saying 8th in his arguments? Thanks
think that helps clear things up for me.

Waggot said top 6, which I assume to be 6th. Brookfield said top quartile which would also be top 6. I would guess if it was higher than 6th they wouldn't be slow to make that known!

You make me wonder Nick, the fact is our manager ( whoever it is) will start next seasonWe have sold 2 or 3 players in 3 years haven't we? If it's all about swapping and changing and not a settled side, hasn't that been down to the manager?
6th or 8th isn't that important is it? Not like we're finishing 7th!
It's pointless talking about budgets unless you know what the budget covers. We may have a 'top 6' budget but we might have allocated only 25% of that for the team. We do know that SISU want the club to be self-supporting. That means attendances and season ticket sales are critical. We can also expect player sales to be needed to balance the books.
That's a very good point. How many other managers had to do thing's like routine maintenance of the training ground, set up a scouting network from scratch, sort out the team bus, reorganise the backroom staff etc. out of their budget this season while also rebuilding a team pretty much from scratch? Not many I bet. Saying we've got a top six budget is only part of the story and as is usual with our board is a lot of smoke and mirrors. It's not the overall budget that fan's should be concerned with it's how much of that budget makes it directly to first team recruitment and wages. Is there an FL report for the latter?
The budget that is shown is that allocated to players salaries.
I bet the Leicestet budget is a lot less than Chelsea's, Arsenals, Man United, Man City or Liverpool, it's not the amount of money you have its how the players put together are asked to play by the manager which over the season Tony Mowbray has failed miserably in the end.
You can't prove that
You've seen it then?
Book by Chris Anderson you say, perhaps his next book will be about how to win after Christmas !You can't prove that, there is a book by Chris Anderson that includes an analysis of the effect of budget on league position and his results contradict your statement.
Transparency from Sisu would help.
I'd like to see the actual budget they are giving to TM for players.
I'd like to see on paper the gradual building of the squad.
It's not me whose trying to underplay it.
If Connor Thomas is earning £350k a year it's difficult to suggest that the remaining squad costs less than £1.65 million isn't it.
That's a no then.
No you're not trying to underlay it, you're trying to overplay it.
I would imagine that the actual playing wage bill change's all season as players come and go.
It would make more sense that a redacted report that comes out at the beginning of the season is a report on playing budget not players wages as the latter change's during the course of a season whereas a playing budget is pretty static and we know that TM had to use the playing budget for routine maintenance on Ryton, setting up a scouting network from scratch, rearranging the backroom and even spruce up the team coach.
Unless of course you know differently, which you clearly don't. Just more supposition passed of as grendull fact.
We don't have to declare it, the Chesterfield chairman does that for us.Well it's you supposing this and that not me.
Declare the playing budget to the footballing world when you have to negotiate with agents, players and clubs?
Brilliant idea that Tony. Wouldn't why no club has done it.

Because he has ran out of ideas!But why would he resign? I don't get it.

This season hasn't played out as he or any of us imagined, I would think he's hurtingBut why would he resign? I don't get it.
This season hasn't played out as he or any of us imagined, I would think he's hurting
at the moment. He isn't really settled is he, evidenced by the fact he still lives in the
north east, on top of that he probably doesn't need the money.
