Saying we should be happy with just surviving this season, saying you'd be happy if we were thumped week in week out in the Premiership.I don't know about anyone else, but I want us to win EVERY game that we play.
then I want sir john Ryan not to spend a single penny (except sharp, shackle, ward and oster)stick the full premship money in the bank and even if we get beat 4 - 5 nill every week get relegated /quote]Hmmm. Sharp, Shackell Ward and Oster. Just how much of nothing d'you think those four will cost? Not forgetting it's not simply about the transfer fee of course.CheersBobG
I think the emphasis was on he wouldn't mind if we got thrashed every week. I agree. If someone offered premiership football to us right now, but the deal was we would get beaten every week, I would take it in a shot - the parachute payments for the next 3 seasons would be worth it.

I think you will find that the Blades want £2m for Billy, Shack for £500,000 but it's wages. Sharp is on £10/12k pweek now so would be looking for £20k in the prem. Shack is on £7k pweek now so would want at least £12k. Wages would take most of the money gained by promotion.
Spot on.I'm sure the first temptation is to take the money and run. Not quite that simple.Yes, we would want to secure the services of Sharp, Shackell etc. But on what sort of contract and how much a week. No point bunging them on Lower Premiership wages on 4 year contracts !How do you reward the contracted players for getting you there. A one off bonus ?Do we use a fair proportion of the money to :-a) Buy the Stadiumb) Increase Capacityc) Improve training facilitiesd) More money in to youth/scoutinge) Improve clubs support struture - Cheif exef, Marketing, Ticketing/Community work The windfall of Premiership money has to be used to secure the long term future of the club, rather than be pissed away on overated players on stupid wages in the hope that we might establish ourselves as a Premiership club. If that means getting stuffed every week so be it !

Just my opinion.
pissing money away on players? when have you known sean do that?the stadium is the problem, we would need about 5-10k extra seats.i also think we need to look at reducing the away end, whilst we are in a playoff pushthe more home fans we can pull in the better for the club.
