The Board Must Dig Deep & Back Lambert...PartII

[First Wizard 0]

Or lose him!

Reading the replies from many respected posters on a merged Seaborne thread, its quite clear that this issue must be addressed as a seperate debate from any individual transfer issue, its far bigger than that.

It''s another Martin O''Neil and Chase situation looming again, get the ruddy cash out now......or else![:@]

I, for one, think we should spunk our money up the wall on a player in the last year of his contract.

PS. You could always cut and paste your replies from the other merged and mod corrupted Seaborne thread on to here..........unless this thread too goes missing!

Why have you started 2 posts on same subject Wiz?

If you refer to Seaborne, he''s under 24, so a tribunal would fix a fee!

I agree. The man is clearly hinting that he wants to build his own team to prove his worth and if we can''t sign a player for peanuts PL could very well get itchy feet come January,more so if we are there and about in the new year and the moneys not forthcoming.

Sorry, but if Lambert did take the Norwich City job without asking whether

funds were available or not then he''s a fool.  If he did ask then I

believe McNally would have given him a straight answer.  So this looks

to me like more pointless scaremongering because there''s nothing to

moan about on the pitch at the moment.  Perhaps on Monday night we''ll

lose and then we can go back to bashing Doc rather than the board.

What if they are backing him and PL doesn''t want to spend over the odds on a player who''s never played above league 1?

[/quote]What a load of waffling, wailing, whingeing, whining and whimpering Wiz!

McNally has already said the finances are "dire" and Lambert would have been made aware of the situation before he accepted the job. Don''t forget, Lambert is McNally''s man. McNally is also a tougher cookie than Doncaster ever was, and he will know that by going public, the likely outcome will be an unsettled player. Watch for a transfer request soon.

Another thing to remember is that if we are as close to administration as you forecast, why would we pay over the odds for players when that would push us closer to the edge?

I''m afraid you can''t have it both ways wiz, everyone (including Lambert) knows that money is tight, so it makes no sense to pay silly prices for a player who will be free in a few months time.

Does it? That''s my automatic response when someone wants to sell me anything in today''s world. It''s why very few people ever pay the asking price anymore.

[/quote]He said we cant afford their asking price, which is far too high. So no, the only thing it messes up are the delusional rants of people who post irrelevant threads to boost their post count.

Hang on, isn''t this the third post you''ve created on this subject now?

Hooray for wiz

When all the other sub binners have crawled back under their stones dear old wiz is still here bleating out anything that can be twisted to be portrayed as a failing at the club.

I can only wonder whether his little fingers could have coped with typing out a couple of dozen messages a day had it been us who were adrift at the botton of the league with about half a point a game, and the binners in the play offs.

[KenBrown 0]

The biggest thing that you forget in all this is that money is tight in about 86 (and that might be higher) league clubs right now

As I have said in another of these repeated posts money was even tighter at Colchester.

There are very few managers who have much to play money with. They are having to earn their money.

And if want an example of where money was made available and hasnt worked look down the road.

lets wait and see rather than stir up a lot of hot air

Wizard is only comfortable in hot air. Being a lightweight, it''s the only time he rises.[:D]

You just don ''t get it do you sunshine?

Lambert would/could be massive for our club with some extra financial backing. And instead of trying to be a smart arse, try questioning just why, a club which has sold players for millions, has 25.000 sell outs on a regular basis, squandered parchute payments on paying off failed managers and is now, according to David McNally, in dire straites.

Thats what really matters...............not your petty, playground point scoring!

Two points there.

Firstly there isn''t any money down the ''A140 - the clue might be in Simon Cleggs repeated statement that the club has to end the annual £2m loss ergo that will mean cutbacks. If not the big reduction in the squad size and the player sales in the summer. Jordan Rhodes sold for football reasons my **** !

Secondly it''s not hot air being stirred merely a resonse to the dimwitted binners endless bleats about money in face of what should have been the blindingly obvious. They haven''t got any !

Thirdly, Colchester are okay for money (not millions but five figure stuff) should the need arise.

[O.T.B.C 1]

But they have never bought a player for over 50k or something in it?

But they claim we owe them money over Lambert.........so perhaps they will spend big now............if they win their case!

Our record transfer fee is £650k.

He will not be free in a few months time though... his fee if it goes to a tribunal is likely to be far higher than what we have offered already (see the Seaborne thread before making a fool of yourself)... [;)]

Another one who is always suggesting we are near administration and yet advocates paying unnecessary transfer fees which would push us closer to the brink.

If we win 4-3, we can do both, consider the potential of losing the manager AND bashing the Dork.

While this thread may be pointless scare mongering, your "solution" is nothing but opinion so it doesn''t really alleviate the problem.
