I didn’t say it was a success please just comment on the point being made which was about selling players poorly and not reinvesting
I didn’t say it was a success please just comment on the point being made which was about selling players poorly and not reinvesting3 of the last 5 seasons were at our lowest for almost 60 years - the fact you constitute that success is baffling
Yep. I think O’hare is brilliant, and has been an integral part of our recent success. Still, if we sold him and bought the two lads from Derby or equivalent prospects I’d be quite happy.Actually I would say the bed wetting has been triggered by inside info from ITKs, so it's not really bed wetting, it's based on info from good sources.
Personally I would have assumed if he was sold it would be for a good fee and we'd re-invest, which I'd be fine with. That's not what we're hearing though.

Believer, I just said above.Who are these in the knows? The only with inside knowledge haven’t said anything.
Robins has said about freeing up wages and talked about Ohare
The £2.5m and £6m are utter bollox with a narrative of sisu are destroying our club and woe is me supporting this club.
If the quote from overson that someone made up had said £10m plus add ons this would be a different discussion
Who have we let go cheaply in the last 5 years?

The worry/disappointment is the talk of lack of reinvestment. It feels like we’d have been here before.
Really not just being balanced. Sbb sometimes good not always. I am a not itk at allBeliever, I just said above.
The bloke knows someone high up in the club, his info is usually spot on.
You're going to great lengths to defend the owners who have seen us homeless twice though. You surprised people assume the worst?

It would mean there is no model…other than quick profits.Yup, the upsetting part is the suggestion that MR will not be given any of an incoming fee to spend. True or not, that's what has worried everyone because if its true the 'model' is bollocks.
Well I'm hoping he's wrong on this one but would you seriously be surprised if SISU reverted to type?Really not just being balanced. Sbb sometimes good not always. I am a not itk at all
One late night comment from Saddlebrains and suddenly there are 6 pages of meltdowns! Well played Saddle
Again not to defend but given that we’ve spent money we’ve not got as a club for the last few years where do we get the money from? Grendels millions?Yup, the upsetting part is the suggestion that MR will not be given any of an incoming fee to spend. True or not, that's what has worried everyone because if its true the 'model' is bollocks.
As I’ve said many times, there’s a real lower league mindset ingrained into the fanbase.So are people being called bedwetters because they expect no or very insufficient reinvestment? Surely it’s a very justified thought process?

If true, it would also be massively short sighted of our owners as ohare’s sale would prove that some investment pays off.
Let’s hope the ITK isn’t right this time…They’re always bloody right!!!
Tbh who gives a shit what the fee is. We won’t get to use any of itSo a mate of Saddlebrains says he spoke to Overson, who in turn told him the fee is 6m and you all believe it?
Brentford model, expectation vs reality.Yup, the upsetting part is the suggestion that MR will not be given any of an incoming fee to spend. True or not, that's what has worried everyone because if its true the 'model' is bollocks.
Mate what are you actually on about. No one has even been sold, so no money to moan about not being reinvested.Bed wetting is responding to information provided by people who have shown to have consistently good inside knowledge of the workings of the club now.
I’ll change my opinion if things turn out differently but it’s head in the sand to just assume everything is fine.
Take your petty comments out on your contacts with the club not the fans who put their money and time into this only to be taken for mugs. Frustration is a natural response and having a go at people for t is pretty pathetic.
Yeah let’s ignore the info coming from the poster that has been consistently spot on.Mate what are you actually on about. No one has even been sold, so no money to moan about not being reinvested.
It’s ridiculous at this stage
Don’t understand why they get mentioned tbh, their owner put over £100m before promotion. Our “model” is Huddersfield when they went up or something like thatBrentford model, expectation vs reality.

I think it’s more the late of reinvestment.[QU
Where has he said the 6 million that everyone is getting their knickers in a twist about? That has come from one place which is almost certainly utter shite
Yep believer didn’t say an amount did he and just said none would be invested in fees. Is that right?Believer, I just said above.

Unfortunately I think we're still Homers BBQ.Don’t understand why they get mentioned tbh, their owner put over £100m before promotion. Our “model” is Huddersfield when they went up or something like that
I don’t give a shit about the fee. I give a shit that it’s not being given to the manager.[QU

Yep just said the same and that’s not bedwetting robins has said that. But it will depend on who goes and how much comes inI think it’s more the late of reinvestment.
Correct. I mean, if the amount is higher than what is doing the rounds, that actually makes it worse.Yep believer didn’t say an amount did he and just said none would be invested in fees. Is that right?
3 of the last 5 seasons were at our lowest for almost 60 years - the fact you constitute that success is baffling
No - it’s not a lower league mindset it’s just not throwing a tantrum based on hearsay.As I’ve said many times, there’s a real lower league mindset ingrained into the fanbase.
With our current owners this is as good as it gets. Some may be happy with that but I want to get back into the top flight one day.
I think it’s more the late of reinvestment.
Let’s be honest Robins would never agree to a “we are going to sell a player and no matter what we get for him we are keeping it” situation would he.Correct. I mean, if the amount is higher than what is doing the rounds, that actually makes it worse.

I don’t scour the forum but I haven’t seen a bid figure from Believer. I think I saw Better Days mention 5m was rejected.
What I find a bit weird is that there’s a fucking tidal wave of depression because our owners are a hedge fund… and they’re operating like a hedge fund. Where have you been the last 15 years? Do I want a fan with a few billion burning his back pocket, fuckyeah.. but we don’t, we have a hedge fund and until that changes I temper my expectations.
All I can say is thank fuck we have MR, Viveash and the majority of players they’ve assembled for blowing the lid off those expectations in the last few years. SISU are our owners. It is what it is. Fuck them. All we can do is support and trust those who are excelling for our club.
