We have a £23 million wage bill which is right up there....Poor recruitment and overpaying bang average players is the reason why.
Quality or quantity and we chose the latter

I am a TB fan, so yes, you'd call me a licker.
Are you new to football? He brings in the people he thinks are best and he supports them with shit loads of money, but that doesn't guarantee results. We've had a bad season, but that happens. Without TB we wouldn't have a ground and we would be struggling to stay in League 1. You're just like a spoilt child whose upset with his Christmas presents.
He didn't say he thought Hyypia was doing a great job and he didn't say we should be in the PL. He said Hyypia would stay because that's what you say, even if you're thinking of sacking someone.
Now what are you talking about, why would finishing near the bottom make us look stupid? Are your Chelsea friends teasing you?

I looked it up.
It's called a "gole" if I recall correctly.
Could be an urban legend though.

Is that when the spherical object goes between those wooden posts joined by that wooden bar at either end of the grass field that we sit and watch for 90 minutes. Only I've seen the teams not wearing blue and white stripes do that a lot and then get quite excited for some reason?

And this is the reason why we may well have another frustrating summer ahead of us, a surfeit of lone rangers next year and a season of further struggle. We are unable to compete financially with at least 50% of the clubs in our league.

I can't be sure, but there was this net hanging behind the two posts and bar and I think I saw it bulge when the spherical object hit it. Really weird! No proof I'm afraid. Sorry. I may have dreamt it.

this is one of the reasons I asked a few days ago who actually owns the club and the answer was he put 200m in so it is him, so the buck stops with him, bad decisions by the recruitment staff who thankfully have now gone , lets hope he has surrounded himself with people who know what they are doing
onwards and upwards

None of the potential three promoted clubs this season; Boro, Watford and Bournemouth had parachute payments, Albion reportedly are in the top 10 or thereabouts of playing budgets and several clubs with parachute payments have even been relegated in recent seasons (Wolves, Wigan) and all clubs in the championship seek out loan players (from the Prem) to strengthen their squad.
We should be able to compete. Whether we will or not ; who knows. Perhaps having a manager throughout the whole of the close season who knows the Division,perhaps hanging on to the key players in our squad and perhaps by making more signings as good as Kayal will really make the difference this season but it won't be because Tony Bloom hasn't got his cheque book out.

i think most of our players are ex rugby and have the idea that the point to winning matches is to get the ball over the bar...

Looks like Clunge could be coming back if he can't find an opening in Spain according to the local rag. Could we really begin the season with Balders, Clunge & COG still in the squad/team? I'm hoping for a least one new striker but we need to start off loading what we've got if we are to get more than one new striking face.

I suspect we'll at the very least be able to loan out Colunga for the full season, even if we cannot sell him. At least we'd get the loan fee, and free up a striking position in the squad.
I still hope COG can also be moved on if he wants to go back north, and I wouldn't be 100% surprised if Baldock is sold, although his current injury status may rule it out.

It seems that Enrich may have signed for Bolton.
