Tenerife Bear 1,748 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 I would love to see the £18m break down. Is this the soft loans we got to pay club operating costs? He didn't state the £30m was for paying a joiner or plumber or the coach drivers wages.......we needed investment in the team and so far there has been next to none of that. King promised the wage bill would be quadrupled this season, it hasn't even doubled. This charlatan is just as bad as the cunts he has just binned. Another £12m investment, all of that could be to tart up our dated stadium and the team won't see any of it. It's an absolute disgrace. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post GOAT 30,449 Posted February 11, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted February 11, 2017 I'm very happy with that statement, well done the board (aye I said it) for getting rid of rats who no longer wanted to be here. Good riddance. only part of the statement I take issue with is the part where we've spent £18m so far. I'd like to see the figures for that, because to me that's bullshit. cr3_bear, Gordy, Bad Robot and 4 others 7 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
one55 1,510 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 the £30m isn't just on players. it's the total amount of money the board would need for signing players, paying their wages, growing the club, employing any new staff, and in general just running the club.

Bad Robot 21,138 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 A good strong positive statement which actually confirms all my previous beliefs on the current management situation and DK where I was giving him until the next transfer window.

ritchieshearercaldow 22,123 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 I'm happy with that, Warburton wanted away eventually, either because he'd failed or he knew the job was too big. He wanted it both ways however, he wanted the option to leave with the club taking the loss. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inigo 32,526 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Well, that's pretty comprehensive. Goes into a fair few things and expands on what was a pretty clear statement last night. Still left wondering why there was so much angst about how the Board dealt with this last night. May still all go tits up, but everything seems to be pretty reasonable and quickly explained to me so far. So, now the Board has to rectify it's mistake in appointing him. I can see where they were coming from with the appointment, but bottom line is it hasn't worked and the buck stops at them. The Next appointment is as vital for us as it is for this Board.

A breakdown would be good but maybe someone can have a go at it on here. What he's holding back is that it's a 30-50 million investment between him and others with him putting up more than half. A positive statement which was needed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrLaudrup 4,563 Posted February 11, 2017 Share Posted February 11, 2017 Personally I think it is a good statement. Last nights statement created more questions than it answered. I think this is pretty comprehensive. Around topics of money etc people will never agree! The important part for me was the comment near the end about "footballing philosophy" etc. This is important as I think sends a clear message that we wont take a backwards step in terms of an old fashioned type of manager in our 'interim/long-term appointment'. While someone like McLeish might well be a caretaker until end of the season I think it is unlikely this type of manager will get the post long term.
