Budget talks

[raggytash]

Ive never met sm but I’ll take my hat off because of the grief which is possibly over the top, but the majority of fans are now clearly pointing the finger at the board, I think it’s in there best interests to either say yeah or neh... personally I think tb as had enough and that’s it’s it tbf, I might be miles away from the truth but I think it’s a sinking ship

[raggytash]

So to the doubters...... Ferguson as took on players on hundreds a week compared with thousands.... good business model??? Mmmm

Has he? - Have you got a breakdown of wages per player we can look at?

   If they are putting the effort in quietly behind the scenes then I applaud that public or not.After all they are pretty safe in the knowledge that SM is the mouthpiece and point of contact for the fans and he also has direct access to the powers that be..
   It's a thankless task full stop,because SM cant always give you the answers you want and sometimes when he does you don't always agree with him..Over the years there are many things I have agreed with him on and one or two which I don't but that's life..But I would never criticise any of them whether they declare it publically or not who work behind the scenes,donating lots of time for free with the aim of making it better for us all....

Not sure how a supporters representative can be anonymous. If nobody knows who they are, how can they represent anyone?

Agree fully. I don't understand how we can have anonymous supporter representatives. Where have these people come from? I don't always agree with SM on here but at least I know who he is, know his role and can ask him something if I have an issue or grievance or query.

How was it they were decided upon as representing supporters, and how can supporter gauge how good a job they're doing supposedly being represented by them?

Majority of fans? You, Boomstick and your mates who only ever come on here to run the club down are hardly a majority.

Always the same old people banging on about the f**king budget isn't it.

like the manager?

No. Like you.

Perhaps he should ask Steve, he seems to know what our budget is.

If you honestly believe may and Beestin are on top dollar you’re in bother lol....

So you don't know then. Thanks.

It’s obvious isn’t it?? Can you honestly sit there and say the board are good????? There useless and it’s fine to say that, there’s no actions to defer otherwise

I haven't said anything about the board. I think you're just making things up now. A bit embarrassing.

[DonnyOsmond]

Baudry, Copps, Butler, Andrew, Marquis, Williams and Rowe will all be in over a grand. Possibly McCullough, Kiwomya, Whiteman, Lawlor too.

His use of the English language appears to be made up. WTF is 'defer otherwise' supposed to mean?

[redbrez]

Hope I'm wrong but told that a good win tweet has stated Ferguson will have a smaller squad next season, not looking good , sèms very worrying ,?
Doesn't even look like where investing the money with the players where realising ?

No need to get personal 😀

I hope Fergie does go, it’ll mean the end for leaches like Baldwin....

[dickos1]

What the f**k are you drivelling on about,
The majority of fans are pointing the finger at the board??
You’re deluded.
Twoddle off back to that Facebook nonsense

Stop chatting shit.

I don't quite get how Baldwin equates to soil drainage...

So why are the board not good? they along with John Ryan bankrolled two promotions to the Championship and they've backed Dickov and Ferguson to get largely who they want. Sure Ferguson has probably kicked off cos he wants more money to spend, but doesn't every manager want a bigger budget in every company on earth?

The first 7 you mentioned I would imagine would be on nearer 3k a week at least!!

[Brian Young]

DF talks about a small squad again next season and as a result, wanting to put a better training/ medical services to help with this . IMO DF is expecting a similar budget when talking about Copps and his contract as it would be dependent on what the budget is .I would have thought Williams leaving should have given DF more available funds as he was on a high wage , yet he hesitates to commit and just said ‘ I don’t know’ which he possibly thinks his budget could be reduced or Williams wages being removed from the total altogether. But one thing looks certain and that there isn’t going to be any contract protractions like he had over Marquis . Players coming in imo only one or two .

They probably are, not sure how anyone can suggest were not spending money on wages.

Or maybe because he didn't know.

Cos it doesn't fit this bizarre narrative that Bramall and co aren't putting a significant amount of money into the club just because we aren't spunking millions on transfer fees.

[Filo]

Theres obviously been a deluge of spice into the area 😀

[raggytash]

Dickos??? You’re a dick!! Tell me how the board of drfc are taking us forward and not fixing attendances?????

[Campsall rover]

Some of the drivel being spouted on hear is quite embarrassing to be quite honest. Let the club get on with it and we will see in August the end result won’t we.
