    The actual argument people make that for every foreign good owner there is a bad one is actually incorrect, because the only clubs that have actually suffered are Coventry and Blackburn without finding a way back so that argument surely now has to be put to bed. The clubs that have suffered administration and other financial hard times have in fact been clubs under British ownership in most cases so the arguments that foreign investment is bad on the whole is garbage too.

    I’m sure if Chase was the current owner and had squandered the money our current owners have, he certainly wouldn’t get the easy ride Smith and Winnie get!

    Been doing a bit of research over the last few hours about just how many of the English football clubs are actually owned by foreigners as many people seem to think it’s not the route for NCFC to take. I was quite surprised tbh at the actual figures which I have broken down below: Prem 13/20 Champs 14/24 League 1 4/24 League 2 1/24 So a total of 32 of the 92 clubs are actually under foreign owners. Of those who are actually owned by foreigners only 2 have never been in the top flight since the start of the Premier League, Millwall and Bristol Rovers. So is foreign ownership actually such a bad thing if those owners actually are prepared to put money into the club?

    Is there any surprise we hear from Delia’s best Buddy? I’m sure the usual suspects will be along to say she’s doing the best she can, and all the usual guff about Community Club! In reality, people should cast their minds back to that Summer of 2015 when we got promoted with little old Bournemouth and little old Watford, both who are owned by nasty old foreigners, yet in a matter of 2 and a half years where are the 3 clubs sitting today? I’m sure all the Watford fans are pining for Elton John to come back and not sell to horrible foreigners so they can once again be a nice little Community Club!

    Absolute boll0x LDC! Yet again you have no clue, get off your backside and get down here and see it instead of spouting your continued drivel! The fans did all they could yesterday but it’s still down to them that it’s not good enough?

    It’s not Farke’s fault we’re $hite? Oh my days, whose fault is it then? The programme sellers? The tea lady? The kit man? Why do people keep saying it’s not his fault ffs? He chooses the team, the tactics and the tempo we play at but hey it’s not his fault!
  9. Baldyboy
    “If we can keep the support as yesterday it will all come good” So the reason we play $hite football is the supporters fault then!

    So if he recommends them and then they are signed it’s as much his fault as who signs them, as for scouting, we had no scouts in place when Farke arrived according to Webber, did we?
  11. Baldyboy
    [quote user="Herman"]Small point of order, Kingsway. Farke doesn''t sign the players, he has little or no say in what players are here. Vrancic is played,because as Hogesar pointed out, we have far too many injuries.[/quote] Really? So he didn’t recommend the recruits from Germany, Even though he came from there? I find that extremely hard to believe especially as Zimmermann was his captain at Dortmund!

    [quote user="lake district canary"]I''m not sure the odd goal scored against us in an issue any more. Yes it''s disappointing to concede a goal and we don''t like seeing defenders getting caught out, but it is always going to happen that you concede goals. Zimmermann has been getting criticism recently, but overall has made a good contribution this season and we have a good range of options in defence now. The issue is up front and not scoring enough. Murphy is not good enough......yet. Whether he ever will be is up to him, but at this level you have to be stronger and more positive. The chance he had yesterday was so clear - he had an empty net....why did he not just pass it straight into the goal, first touch? He has to find a bit more gumption to his game. It looks as if Oliveira is going to be a hot and cold player for us - and we need more than that. Jerome has never been that clinical in front of goal - and we badly need (imo) a better overall front runner. Wildschut appears to be a one trick pony. No coincidence that all these players are ones that were here before Farke arrived. Watkins has yet to prove himself, but imo from what I saw when he came on against Sheffield Utd, if on form he has something to offer. It''s a cliche, but it is a work in progress and that it is it. Farke needs players that fit what he is trying to do and so it will take time and several transfer windows to get right. Dreadful to watch though it sounds at the moment, it will surely improve, but not until certain front players either step up their game or replacements are found. [/quote] If you think the issue is only up front you definitely are deluded and it shows you don’t watch games! Also to say a few mistakes from Zimmerman is expected? Well in the last TWO games he has been the cause of both goals conceded because he clearly isn’t at the level required! He makes Bassong look good!

    I really hope somebody has the balls to tell the owners they need to Farke off!

    9 words too many at the end of that sentence 😂😂

    Awful news condolences to Simon and his family
  16. Baldyboy
    You forgot the comment that Josh could be worth 25 million 😂😂 The guy is comedy gold 😂😂
  17. Baldyboy
    Well done Yellow
  18. Baldyboy
    Gunn isn’t ours though, he’s only on loan so it’s a temporary upgrade!
  19. Baldyboy
    What makes you think this Nutty?

    [quote user="JF"]Agree about Trybul, I’d forgotten about him when typing that. Yanic’s face appears not to fit and I wouldn’t be surprised if he were gone in January. Murphy is a hard one to call as I just don’t see a move coming from him like his brothers at the minute[/quote] But he’s potentially worth 25 million according to Farke 😂😂

    [quote user="FenwayFrank"]Difficult to think that Wolves success is down to Ruddy and Bennett. They may play their part but there are a number of other players that have put them at the top of the table.[/quote] I’m not denying that, but the point was that no one of those who went had done anything of note! I wonder whether they both wish they were back here with us 😃

    [quote user="Rhubarb"][quote user="capricorn1"]Given that Bassong still hasn''t got a club, is he over pricing him or do they all think he''s not worth it?[/quote]A case of both I would imagineThere was a good reason he was shunted of to Watford on loan ''disruptive'' ......... was the word I heardCan''t say any of those sold or released have set the footballing world ablazeAny wonder that the scouting network needed changing.If what has come in has not set the world ablaze too much either I don''t think we can question their commitment or lack of Bertie Big Bollox attitude either (Oliveira excepted)[/quote] None of them set the world alight hey Rhubarb 😂😂 I’m sure Ruddy and Bennett will laugh at that quote as they look down from the top of this division we are currently 15th in!
  23. Baldyboy
    Another 15 or so away performances like that all ending in defeats and you will be happy will you when it means we go down?
  24. Baldyboy
    On The Ball City pre game instead of that $hite Parklife would be good!
  25. Baldyboy
    We couldn’t all turn on that nice old lady who’s partial to a bottle of red now, could we?
