BroadstairsR 0 Posted May 14, 2009 Irrespective of exact figures, it still amounts to a lot of wasted money. None of those four have been good value, especially if you include the reportedly excessive wages they have been paid. Did we lose money on Bell as well?This is just the tip of the ice-berg and I can only think of Hoolahan, Clingan and hopefully MacDonald as value acquisitions since Worthington''s days.Add to this the cost of loanees and their agents and one has to wonder how the likes of Plymouth, Doncaster and Blackpool, to name a few, would have faired with such funds at their disposal.Money has leaked from this club in recent years, all seemingly wasted.

[/quote]And all those players were brought in to replace players who left for far bigger transfer fees- Earnshaw, Etuhu, Green, Jonsson etc., etc. By the way, Fozzy was free but i agree, you have to expect players brought in for free to be world-beaters don`t you? Honestly, the NCFC spin machine have it so easy. Sell tens of millions of pounds worth of players, spend less than half on replacements, claim you`ve been ambitious and that "all money received is re-invested" even though the accounts show year-on-year clear profits of millions in the transfer market, and people believe you......You couldn`t make it up.

Sing Up The South Stand 0 Posted May 14, 2009 Generally speaking, that was one of Roeder''s strengths, he did have an eye for a good player (although some exceptions obviously), he just couldn''t manage them! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
