Gone Elsewhere Chuba Akpom

Murmurs you've made up

 

[jt64]

How do these Chsmpionship clubs pay such wages yet get around FFP rules ?

Their latest accounts show £26 million turnover. Paying someone fifty grand a week is less than 10% of turnover. If the entire first eleven is on that, then it's problem, but they won't be

 

[S64 Blade]

I’m thinking some of these players we’ve been linked with since Ndiaye left aren’t overly serious ones and were leaked just to help create some good PR for the club, from the fans.

If Berge goes they’ll be another flurry of names for us not to sign, before we sell Egan or Anel.

Why would he come here seriously no ambition

Certainly feels that way doesn't it?
Hecky must be close to walking surely. He'd miss out on the rest of his five year contract, but he'd walk into a top Championship job easily.

Scary that we might invest (or reinvest) huge money (for us) in those two. What happened to the fabled foreign network and all the brilliant low cost foreign signings Wilder wouldn't sign last time we were in the Prem.

Fella we've literally signed 3 overseas players, and are about to add a 4th in Souza

So why not six for better value for money. Scary the rumours that we might give 18 million for those two.

Wow ! $26m after years in the Championship?
What would our turnover be without parachute payments ? $10m ?
Where do Boro find an extra $16m of turnover compared to us ?
Just demonstrates what a poor relation we are - and it’s even worse if you take into account how much debt we would still have to service after relegation and after the parachutes run out.
My worst fear is landing back in the Championship and still having our debt to service after the parachutes run out , whereupon our relatively poor turnover will see us on the slide.

Interesting that - Gibson always with the “holier than thou” statements on this topic

Does he post in General Chat?

On the back of a two second Google, about the same

That’s surprisingly good news cheers

They sold Marcus Tavernier last year, looks like McNair might be off as well so they've got some money to spend.

Wheres Mcnair off too? I'd have him as cover for Egan.

Those loans last year will have been pricey I reckon and nothing to show for them

It isn't b*llocks though our club literally have no ambition at all.

We are less than a week before the start of the season and I have never seen such a lopsided Blades team it is embarrassing.

Me too. But not cover for Egan, but Anel, Baldock and all the midfielders

 

[K1 flabby stick]

Well Ladies and Gents.

Sometimes it would be pleasant to have a few dull moments... but, we follow Dem Blades, so it ain't gonna happen.

I predict a top 10 finish incidentally.

 

[loyalblade95]

True, given that Villa want a lot for Cameron Archer I can't imagine the loans for Archer and Ramsey would have been cheap.

Not sure where exactly, linked with a few clubs including us apparently but I'm just going off what I saw on Twitter. Then again he's one of those players who seems to get linked with moves away in every transfer window.

I doubt we’re linked with him now Trusty has signed?

It was a few weeks ago mate, we seem to get linked with him every transfer window so I wonder if it's just people on Twitter circulating old news and stuff while there might have been genuine interest from another club.

So we haven’t even bid for this guy even though he was choosing between us and Boro lol

Replacements already lined up for Ndiaye was clearly bollox.

Looking that way isn’t it

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

'Lined up' probably only meant we'd written their names down on a notepad to be fair

 

[Rodley]

We’re readying.

100 days in, we’re readying.

Watch out Man City!
