Serious Question

Will his contract have a pay cut if relegated clause in it ???

s6t9a2f3f

If we have not got the money or attraction to turn the style of play at the football club and we want a similar manager to SD then an ideal replacement whether you like him or not would be Steve Bruce, a underrated manager who gets the best out of what he has, at times under severe pressure.

s6t9a2f3f

What happened to this fantastic transfer window you all raved about ?? Just checking first 11 tonight hmmmmm all very familiar names.

10/10 - Making into a decent championship squad and hopefully next season play offs at the very least

I wouldn't class it as a great window, but it's been a pretty good window all things considered.

I would accept that, lot more balanced reaction

s6t9a2f3f

Cornet - someone I don't know a lot about but from what I've seen and heard someone who could have easily gone to a top team and performed. And will undoubtedly become starting 11 player soon! hmmm for 12m and hardly anybody else wanted him throughout the entire window ?? we gave EVERY tom, dick an...

So is this still a miserable transfer window? You're normally very quick to have a whinge, just wondering if you've taken your head out of the oven yet... LOLOLOL lets celebrate we finished 4th bottom last season and we have started this season 1/9 points and we have bought players from Stoke (a un...

s6t9a2f3f

Potentially great signing, cant get any worse than some of our other "major" purchases TBH - Vid nevers gets a game and nobody outside the club seems to know completely why, Brady less said the better, Hendricks turned from a 10m player to nothing in just over 4 years or at least did to the club and...

Think there’s a player in there but don’t think in a 4. Would have to play a 5 in midfield I’d say

This lad could end up a updated version of Jack Rodwell

s6t9a2f3f

Let's hope it's not Cornet in and mcneill out

s6t9a2f3f

Perfect time to buy, price would be lower. As you delight in pointing out, regularly, an aging Squad - if it was already rebuilt it's worth more. Manager in final year - again, if he had a new long term contract already signed, that inflates price of club Revenue streams effected - if they were nor...

s6t9a2f3f

Just seems a funny time as "investors" to buy a small premiership club to me. 10 months into a modern day pandemic you choose to purchase, the glue SD only has just over a year on his contract, a ageing squad that needs strengthening left, right and centre, and at the time (Jan 2021) no firm date wh...

We will be playing them next season make no mistake.

Signing Young would have been a joke. I would much sooner see a younger lad from the under 23s on the bench than another pensioner picking up a wage packet every week.

SPOT ON

s6t9a2f3f

Young started out as a right winger, is right footed and played most of his career there. Ah your coming from the older version of Lennon angle then are you, power, pace, beating players, goals and plenty of assists ? hmmmm was not on the wave length as you I was on the Burnley pension plan for the...

s6t9a2f3f

No he wasn't spot on at all. As I've already informed you, something you chose to ignore, we had no intentions of signing them both. From a players position wise only Albrighton made any sense anyway - what would Young bring that a back up like Pieters doesn't ?? we already have 3 decent left side ...

s6t9a2f3f

To be fair Tony both of there squads are considerably younger and larger than ours, they can afford to carry old players. Both would have been strange signings given the realities of our squad. spot on pal, last we needed was 2 more over 30 players, more short sighted action from the club, keep put...

s6t9a2f3f

looking at the team / squad from last season I still find it mind blogging (if true) that 2 of our "top targets" were Albrighton (32 in November) and Young (36 years old) - probably the very last thing we need age wise !!!!!!!!!!

I think this is very astute observation that I hadn't considered before.

On the plus side, if Dyche does walk, then even if we go down we may find it easier to atract players.

thats if ALK do not drain us of money paying debts off in the meantime

s6t9a2f3f

Great start by Newcastle, and naturally ASM heavily involved in the goal, he and Callum Wilson are vital to Steve Bruce, and if they both stay fit Newcastle could well enjoy a much better campaign than they did last year. Hendrick on the bench, and no Willock for Newcastle today. Declan Rice at fau...

The dig about tarky and his contract is bullshit though… we tried to keep him, he’s outgrown us, plain and simple. Absolutely nothing we could do other than offer 80k, which is a dangerous game when you then try to sign players I'm going to have to spell it out for you which is OK. There's 2 option...

s6t9a2f3f

It's been the same old story for months now - its like anything ageing you can keep going to the well so many times and eventually the well runs dry. Brighton have more money - had a centre half that they made sure was on a long contract so they could sell to arsenal for 50 million while we have one...

s6t9a2f3f

Don't think anybody was expecting us to spend £75 million or anything but gaps are widening and we have not got the funds to plug them. We lost Brady, we will lose Tarks and we have got Collins who has alot to prove to become as good as tarks in his prime. The midfield is ageing apart from Brownhill...

s6t9a2f3f

personally I don't think the question is about how much money the new owners bring but in "will they improve on previous owners?" As such it's early days and the recruitment is only Additionally, My perspective is that there has been much more activity in the youth & under 23 sides with new faces be...

Time to go cap in hand down the M65 to the chicken ranch and ask for a venky donation

s6t9a2f3f

Norwich sign a winger for 10 million from a Greek club

s6t9a2f3f

Might they come for tarks ?? Available and relevantly cheap for a proven, good centre half.

s6t9a2f3f

Suppose I will bang the Ryan Kent drum again, Rangers out of champs league this week. Age 24 - last years stats :

2020-21
37 appearances
10 goals
9 assists

Yes he has to improve but what's not to like at around 8 million ??

s6t9a2f3f

Survive by skin of our teeth again BUT a injury to Wood (there's nobody else to score goals) or we lose Tarks and Ewood here we come.

s6t9a2f3f

the GOOD thing is though we can all become scouts/agents and try and make a butty as the above stats are obviously good enough to be paid professionally. We could all flood and watch sunday morning pub games and maybe throw some names forward on monday ? still enough time to be signed on for the sea...

s6t9a2f3f

Yeah just seen Lennon's agent he was laughing his head off and remarked to a passer by "surely there not dumb enough to pay him and me another wage for doing very little or possibly nothing at all" not sure what that means though ???

s6t9a2f3f

Some people on here was ridiculing Gilmour going to Norwich on loan and we could end up with Lennon "on loan" who wasn't good enough or effective enough 2 year ago, has a old dog learnt new tricks ? 2019 / 2020 stats from 16 appearances Attack Goals 0 Goals per match 0.00 Headed goals 0 Goals with r...

Messi to PSG from Barcelona deal done within 4 days - but maybe hes not a top player as you have stated ?

s6t9a2f3f

Also trying to sort out contracts and transfers for the top players whilst they are away in International duty at the Euro's, Copa America or the World Cup seems a very sensible solution lololololol - strange you mentioned top players need time to do deals, on the LAST DAY of the window the agent s...

Sure Dyche would be ecstatic to finish a long hard season and instead of taking some time off going straight into the stress and intensity of trying to sign players.

s6t9a2f3f

Why would he sign a contract when we're not even able to strengthen the squad? Is it not nice to get paid handsomely whilst waiting for something else to drop ? is it not family security to be in a job whilst looking for another one especially if its in the same industry ? he might also look at som...

s6t9a2f3f

and SD signs a new contract AFTER this window ends what would you make of that ??

He has bought into the future with ALK and he believes moving forward more money than the previous regime will become available in time/future windows ?

s6t9a2f3f

I just don't understand why buythe club in the first place.and have no money to strengthen SPOT ON - its a massive, massive gamble if the plan is to generate more revenue by off the field stuff and hope the manager (As next season it might not be SD) to over achieve year after year as the only hope...

Pretty sure Gray hasn't got double figures in the PL in his four or five seasons playing in that league

Except Wood then he will fit right in with our other 3

Fair enough. But I'd rather have the strikers we have than Gray. Excellent for us in the Championship but not good enough at PL level in my view. Well we have 4 strikers and only 1 has a cat in hells chance of getting double figures !!!! Would I swop barnes for Gray right now ? Would snap your hand...

Andre Gray isn't good enough for us. I'm looking forward to watching all the players especially after the last eighteen months. Can't wait. Not buying Andre Gray now, I meant the impact when he played for us, the pace, the goals, beating players - he was a player that lit the club up at the time. W...

s6t9a2f3f

Without the benefit hindsight I thought Gibson was a very good signing. Suppose it shows how good Tarkowski and Mee are and very positive the amount of games they are able to play. The club needs a breath of fresh air, a "andre gray", a "danny ings" something to get the fans back on the edge of the...
