Credit where credit is due

Jesus fucking Christ of nazaria

Jesus fucking wept

So we could've had Jesus Navas and we end up with the twats above? I'll give them a chance but for fucks sake Blades, I'm really cross with these two signings.

So our new look potential first choice back four now consists of one transfer listed player, Freeman and two loan players in Ebanks-Landell and Lafferty. What a joke after raking in over three million for two players.

CW said we had the best two full backs in the division in Brayford and Hussey, I bet he doesn't think that now after Hussey's recent performances. Due to this horrendous signing, he has had to go out and sign another full back today,.
McFaz was desperate to sign for us, however we missed out through through penny pinching and end up with the desperation signing of Ebanks-Landell at the last minute on deadline day.
Just another sad day in the seemingly never ending demise of this great club.

Best two full backs in the league and not one of them will be playing in the next game.

Really 'cross'. I see what you did there.

Yea. Hart to Torino really is comparing like with like.

As per McCabe has raked in a fortune and spent fuck all in reality.

Is McCabe at Torino as well?? He gets everywhere!!

Torino are also doing it "cheap" as they're only paying a third of his wages.

Seems only premiership clubs awash with money are really the ones making big money signings to be fair. Nothing big in the continent so far as I have seen so they must all be cheap as well.

I disagree that he has spent fuck all as financially it doesn't make sense to claim that.
I'm not a McCabe appeaser and know that he has had his part to play in our demise however in al honesty where do you think the money comes from to actually run the club?
12000 (if that) season tickets only gets you so far.
Couple of million (if it's paid in full at the time of sale - not very many deals are these days) from player sales.
A few quid from merchandise and a bit of
Sponsorship (bear in mind - the sponsors will have paid league one rates)

Now look at expenditure - the staff wages (not just players - also include all of the admin staff, the coaches at the club - not just first team, the tea lady, travel and subsistence costs for the teams (not just the first team), electricity, gas, water, office supplies, business rates, tax etc etc etc the list is endless. And let's not forget paying up the contracts of rubbish (Woolford and Hammond).
Also add on there player signings, agent fees, signing on fees, loan fees, solicitor fees etc

Now into the real world - I can bet that a few season tickets, couple of players out of the door, and a hand full of shirts sold at the club shop don't quite meet that expenditure - so where else is this coming from? Unfortunately money doesn't grow on trees contrary to popular belief and so someone is having to fund the shortfall between what we make and what we spend.

Summed up McCabe fucked our club up. End of.

two loan players in Ebanks-Landell and Lafferty. What a joke

I imagine Bournemouth are gutted with their loan signing too. #noambition

That doesn't say that at all.

It shows a bit of insight into real life business and we actually have expenditures we cannot realistically cover from football income alone.

McCabe fucked up our club eh? Because Mike McDonald before him was so fantastic wasn't he?

Mike McDonald could have done some damage with £23 million though....
