Jonzey 0 Posted July 17, 2013 Binner...........is currently a fad I enjoy when a poster posts something contentious. I have to say I have argued on here using ''resale value'' as a point. But not because it''s a fad, but because I am an accountant and i know it is a very important factor in transfers. To dismiss resale value because you just want a new shiney striker without considering all facets of the deal is the kind of thinking that ruins a club financially.
