The thing missing from that is as soon as the player to sign is identified, Jeff comes in and reduces the budget.

... or announces that we must have a Brazilian/Argentinian/Paraguayan who is a star that will make his bosses future money in a position where we have more than enough good players.

Those are the signings accepted to mollify Hobbs to say yes to everything Shi demands. He's a scout first and foremost and it's clear where his hobbies lie.

Yep, and those hobbies are hobbling our club. He needs to hobble off back to his level of schoolboy scouting asap.

This will give Gaz another 6 months stay of execution…….

Add this to the “£200 millions worth of talent” that he’s already lost…….

 

[big mean bunny]

What's worse. Turning that offer down for Hwang or signing Johnstone for £10m? Two absolutely baffling decisions at the time, and worse now in retrospect.

 

[Del Woppio]

£30m swing right there just by not making two really stupid decisions. Benchmark that you useless fucking cunts.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

In a moment of "shit rumour sites boil my fucking piss", Football Insider have come out with the gem that we have to sell one of our stars in January or risk FFP breach.

Get to fucking fuck with that shit. It has NOTHING to do with FFP, and rather a lot more to do with conscious ownership cuntery.

 

[Kenny]

A moment of?

That rage is permanent i think

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

I'm at relative peace these days. It's liberating.

You know how it is, you try and get all sweary and angry about stuff and realise there are 26.9m people who make you look like a talented amateur.

 

[Dairve Ayeye]

According to Football Insider, we will be forced to sell in January to avoid a points deduction... That's that then. As they say in these parts, wim fucked. Anyone got anything positive to say about this?

 

[Tyrannosaurus Dan]

It’s a load of bollocks.

Simply not true, hasn't been for ages. We're well inside the limits for PSR. Lazy 'journalism' I'm afraid.

Are you trying to WUM paddy?

Wonder if Jeff's planting stories so he can have a post relegation PSR sympathy article.

MUST. NOT. BITE.

Hold me back, EP, I beg you

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

You think? It's sort of possible like the sky might be blue.

Alternatively the writers of that cunt soup on football insider have about zero inside knowledge and as much right to exist on god's clean earth as a weasel.
