I think you will find that it is widely accepted that Oscar left because he lost confidence in our recruitment policy. Unless you want to speculate to another reason?

:lolol: Oh no it isn't, it's a response of doubt to speculation, and I doubt that doubting speculation is greater than the speculation itself. What I think we can agree on, and is not speculative to any degree, is that Oscar left because of poor business in the January transfer window.

Believing that someone wouldn't/didn't say something, based on character, is not speculative. Claiming that Oscar said "I don't want Conway" is unsubstantiated speculation.

I find it hard to believe that it is even possible to send a mixed message with a yes or no answer :shrug: The communication thing works both ways so if the club expected him to phone up Burke 3 times a day begging for Conway, it was never going to happen.

Firstly, my opinion is that there is no evidence to suggest that Oscar said he didn't want Conway, because he keeps his opions private. He was too classy to sink to the level of blabbering to any old Tom, Dick or Harry. Secondly, how can anyone back up something that someone was not supposed...

I very much doubt the "Oscar didn't want Conway" rumour is true. I have seen nothing on here to back that up as a factual account of the situation.

Come on, Lingard was a kid brought in to do a mans job and Stephens came in to cover Crofts. I was talking about Grabban and Conway, both of these players would have retained good value and payback profit just by selling them on if we failed in our promotion bid. I very much doubt that we will...

No I didn't, I said "there may be at least 5,000 less season tickets sold next year even if we stay in this league."

How do you know that it will be as much as 19k if we are in L1/Div 1 next season.

I didn't say either of those statements especially "the end of the world as we know it". I am just pointing out that for every 5000 tickets not sold it costs the club around £2.3m, so maybe it is the end of the world as TB knows it. My world in fact remains the same.

So the official tickets sold 24,370 with an actual gate of 19,423, equals a 4,947 no show. The no shows wouldn’t include many of the away supporters or single match day attendance tickets, but would consist mainly of season ticket holders not turning up. The total spend of those not turning up...
