Is Barber going to issue a statement as mentioned a while back? That thread's got to over 70 posts now and nothing.

You must be disappointed to lose Oscar after he did a great job of getting us to the playoffs, despite the injuries to so many of our palyers - what can be done to make sure the next decent manager is happy with the way our club is run?

Given that the club has a strict ethos to comply with FFP; will the club challenge the FA on any punitive sanctions imposed on other clubs who have flouted FFP yet have gone on to success in the EPL thereby making a perceived mockery of the regulatory framework?

What punitive sanctions are you talking about? The scale of fines for clubs promoted is clearly laid down.

For us non-financial types, please can you explain HOW the playing budget for the season just gone was increased from the year before. I just don't see how this is possible despite it being repeated by you and other members of the Board.

Last summer, we let go of Dicker, Painter and Vicente as well as the 2 loan players: Hammond and Bridge

These were replaced with Agustien, Ward, Andrews (no fees involved). Therefore at this point, the wage bill surely had to be lower for this season.

Since then, we have got over (?) £4m in transfer fees for Bridcutt, Barnes and El-Abd and have saved on their wages.

We brought in Dale Stephens (£500k?) and Rodriguez and Lingard. I would guess wages for these three are probably below the combined wages of the 3 departing players AND we've got net £3.5m in transfer fees (actually more than that as the £500k will be split over 3 years from a P&L basis).

So how does that equate to us having more money for the playing budget unless there is a LOT of cash left over for spending now?

Will the club take legal action against the Football League if they do not enforce the FFP rules?
What is his view on the FFP fines going to charity instead of the compliant clubs?

Who's your favourite Barry??
 




Given the upheavals of the past year, do you now think it might have been worth it to humour Gus with a few more signings so we can get those £120m a year revenues?
