  1. Can we afford a Cat 1 academy? Arent the costs the reigion of 2-2.5mil a year?
  2. ''We have above average turnover for the championship and no external debt to finance'' And how much longer do you really expect that to be the case? We have seen just by the amount of empty seats that ticket sales will fall, to make up for that the club has been lowering ticket prices so we won''t be able to rely on that. Player sales are ok, but eventually you run out of players to sell, plus players that are sold need replacing
  3. So its better to have no money and no chance of promotion than money and a chance at promotion?
  4. Although expected, still feel complexity deflated. Guess we will have to get used to that feeling. I amazed we don''t have any incoming transfers lined up to soften the blow
  5. What chances were they? And who missed them? I can think of 1 off the top of my head. As for Vrancic, nobody really knows where his best position is, and he doesn''t seem to suit any formation we play
  6. ''We wont get £11m , £12m or £14m in year one . In the same way as we didn''t get £10m/£12m for Murphy. Clubs don''t just write out a cheque I''m afraid.'' By the same logic we don''t play for our players up front either...
  7. Easy to forget that there is actually a game tomorrow considering everything else that is happening... Time to mix it up and have a change in style. I would go 3-4-1-2 with... Gunn Klose - Hanley - Zimmerman Pinto - Tettey - Trybull - Lewis Maddison Oliveira - Murphy Width provided by Pinto/Lewis, Murphy as a striker with Maddison just behind pulling strings
  8. But I though it was only foreign investors that were bad? There seems to be a lot of people who would only be happy if Delia sold out to somebody local... isn''t that what Evans is?
  9. Confirmed. Surely we must have at least one signing incoming today with 2 going out?
  10. There would be an irony if Maddison went to Wolves. little old Norwich trying to prove that money isn’t everything because Delia said so lose their best player to a team in the same league that has lots of money... Surely it wouldn’t happen?
  11. I think he would suit a Warnock team. Simple & effective, nothing fancy about it at all
  12. I guess now Huddersfield have spoken publicly about it the club would be forced to give some form of statement
  13. Price is key. A price rise is simply unacceptable, given the direction of the club on/off the pitch, and what we already pay. A price freeze is most likely, but nothing to be celebrated. It should be the bare minimum Price decrease just simply wont happen. I think that next season it may be cheaper to be a ''casual'' ticket buyer instead of a season ticket holder
  14. To be fair, as good as he is, has Pritchard done enough to warrant making a huge profit on him? Out injured for most of this season. Neil didn’t really play him, only really flourished under Irvine
  15. I fully expect Webber to come out with the same interview we got after we sold Howson The club had no choice, Pritchard made it clear he wanted to leave etc
  16. For a glimpse of what we are like without Maddison and Pritchard just watch the Burton game back. Then take Tettey out as he’s out of contract and it doesn’t paint a pretty picture
  17. The title of this thread sounds bad. Then you read the story, and why they are charging that, then you see Man Utd are fully justified in what they are doing. Looking after their fans - good on them
  18. Oliveira - possibly leaving Coming in - at least 1 striker (if Jerome goes), 2 or 3 (if both Jerome & Oliveira leave)
  19. Could see this happening. He will have half an eye on the World Cup as well so he would probably be keen Maybe we could try a swap deal for their Dutch striker, Ricky van Something...
  20. @ Essjayess Of that list, how many are here next season do you think? Maddison? No chance. Oliveira & Klose? Think they will be gone by the end of the month Tettey? Out of contract Pinto? Debatable
  21. The midfield will be stronger with Ben Godfrey if we lose Pritchard? When Godfrey comes back we won’t have Tettey either, and probably Maddison will also have been sold You think Midfield will be stronger?
  22. On the plus side, it looks like Wolves may have moved on from Oliveria - apparently they have had a bid rejected for Andre Silva from AC Milan. For £34.7million. 34.7 MILLION!
  23. I don’t think we will get relegated this year. Almost certain if it. But selling Pritchard now, Maddison in the summer and Oliveira at some point, then take out Tettey who is out of contract, it doesn’t fill me with much confidence for next season and beyond
  24. Isn’t every club a selling club? Just as every club is a buying club?
