...... is when the season starts,correct ? Today’s date is 17/06/19, that’s roughly 7 weeks, the players don’t report back until a fortnight today. I bet by the time pre season starts there will be at least half a dozen new faces. In any other business the boss doesn’t tell everyone his plans
-
Come on mate, don’t start putting reasonable comments like that on here.
-
Away shirt isn’t even out yet...
We’re doomed, doomed a tell thi!
-
Aye, bloody rubbish, Cusack.
Get that Peter Heritage lad in up front. He'll do us a job.
-
What you say is true of course
But I don’t think it’s unusual to have a little twinge in your ballsack now we’ve lost 7/8 players from our starting 11
-
We've currently got 4 players who started the 2nd leg against Charlton.
There's a strong possibility that could go down to 2.
To build practically a new starting 11 to challenge for the top two (Mccans own target), is alomst an impossible task.
It'll take til Christmas for them to gel properly.
I'd take 5th bottom if you offered it me now.

How did Saunders get on with a new squad ?

We knew full well that if we didn't achieve promotion then our crown jewels would be targets for other clubs.
We knew full well, Kane & Wilks would be returning to their clubs having fulfilled their development potential and are likely to be tested at a higher level.
We knew full well there were players that needed to be moved on due to not fulfilling their potential.
We also should know full well that players out of contract, who were inconsistent, would not be offered improved terms.
McCann is the manager and will have been acutely aware of the possibilities and probabilities. Personally, I have faith in his ability so I'm not concerned about where we are now or where we'll be come the start of the season.
The way the market is operating these days, clubs will be dealing with a higher turnover of players than before. Perhaps some more than others. Those offering higher wages they can't sustain are taking bigger risks and may pay the price should their gambles on average players not pay off.

Draytonian you should know better.
How dare you say something sensible & positive in the same sentence.
I can’t get my breath. You won’t half get some stick for saying that.

Or you can try and do everything on the cheap and hope it comes off, and if it doesn't, then no one can be disappointed.
-
You might call it cheap. Some might call it sensible.

You might call it cheap. Some might call it sensible.
Why, because we won't spend money?
you may not like it, but football is a money game, and it's filtering down the leagues. That isn't going to change, so we either play the game, or get left behind.
-
We do spend money.

The new left back will cost a fee, I’d call that spending money

Thank heavens our board don’t live in fantasy land like some of our posters on here.
Some of you need to get real and live in the real world.
If you still want to still have a DRFC in 10/20 years time then we have the right business plan in place with a sensible wage structure, living within its means. That’s not a lack of ambition. It’s the correct way to run the club.
Football clubs are a business whether we like it or not and if you continually spend more than what comes in you eventually go bust.
I will say it again, do you want a sustainable model for the club or do you want boom and bust?
That’s the choice. I know which one i prefer.

Spending big does not mean you're going to bust out.

Yes it does.
Where is the money going to come from. Are you going to fork out millions every year out of your own pocket and get none of it back.
Bramhall and Watson may be very wealthy but why should they spend millions of their own money year after year. What they are doing is building an infrastructure that is sustainable.
Why can’t you understand that. We didn’t spend silly money last season and we were a whisker away from the play off final. One game from gaining Championship status again.
This board do not do mediocrity they want success. Believe me they wouldn’t be here if they didn’t.
If you can’t see that red army then you must have a blindfold on. Open your eyes and see the reality.

And the have done, by subsidising the club by £2 to £2.5m a year.
We had a top 6 budget last season, why can't you see that? Or doesn't it fit with your narrative?

So your happy for the club to be millions in debt. How many millions would you be happy with in the persuit of glory. Tell me. Whose money are YOU willing to spend?

I’m not so sure re-investing all the money we’ve saved on wages over the last 2/3 years is going to cripple us.
We’ve lost a high number of players over the last two seasons the wage bill has been significantly reduced which isn’t a bad thing and I’m not sure why people think it is or why people also try to pretend it hasn’t happened

of course our wage bill has been significantly reduced over the last 2/3 seasons.
Over a dozen players have left, discounting the youngsters and we’ve signed 4 or 5.
So obviously the wage bill is much lower than it was this time 2/3 years ago

You really need to stop guessing and look at the accounts. The budget has continued at a pretty high level for the last 3 years. It's documented and filed at Companies House.
-
I haven’t mentioned the budget I’m just talking purely about our wage bill,
I’m not guessing at all.
All you need to look at is the players that have left over the last 2 seasons and the ones that have come in.
It cannot be argued that the wage bill is the same now as it was 3 years ago

The wage bill is in the accounts, and it's no lower now than it was 2/3 years ago. So, with documentary evidence I am arguing with you. You're wrong, there is no other way of expressing that.

You are guessing. You have no idea what our wage bill is. Yet again you are making stuff up - like the Oxford United performance in second half of the season, or all the players that apparently left since May 2019. All made up.

But it hasn't has it? The player budget is as big as it's ever been.
of course our wage bill has been significantly reduced over the last 2/3 seasons.
Over a dozen players have left, discounting the youngsters and we’ve signed 4 or 5.
So obviously the wage bill is much lower than it was this time 2/3 years ago
You really need to stop guessing and look at the accounts. The budget has continued at a pretty high level for the last 3 years. It's documented and filed at Companies House.
dont you go letting facts get in the way of a good guessathon....lol
No guessing I’m afraid,
The facts are, over the last two season we’ve released these off our wage bill
Marosi, McCullough, Mandeville, Williams, Lund, Rowe, Butler, garratt, beestin, mason, Baudry, Alcock, khemis, Middleton, Andrew and a few youngsters
And we’ve brought in, Crawford, Halliday,Anderson, sadlier. And a few youngsters.
So are you really trying to tell me that these 4 players earn the same as the 15 that have left?

I haven’t mentioned the budget I’m just talking purely about our wage bill,
I’m not guessing at all.
All you need to look at is the players that have left over the last 2 seasons and the ones that have come in.
It cannot be argued that the wage bill is the same now as it was 3 years ago
You are guessing. You have no idea what our wage bill is. Yet again you are making stuff up - like the Oxford United performance in second half of the season, or all the players that apparently left since May 2019. All made up.
Correct I’ve no idea, but even someone like
Yourself can surely identify that it’s less now than it was then just by looking at the facts in front of you
-
And for the second time...we have handed out contract extensions and signed players on permanent terms, all which will eat into the budget. These are serious players we were extending so will have got serious increases - Marquis, Wright, Whiteman etc.

May 2019??
Ooh was that a typo? See can happen tonrhe best of us.
Should I be as pathetic as you and bring this up now for the next 5 years? 🙄

And for the second time, extending a contract won’t come close to bridging the gap of 11 players leaving the wage bill altogether
-
Eh? You posted the other day that players had left since end of 2018/19 season ie May 2019 and included Williams and several others who had left a year before. Again, making stuff up.
-
Eh?
And as the other people who were involved in the discussion quickly grasped it was meant the year before.

Nobody is saying it does - but equally your overly simplistic attempt at matching up player salaries is truly risible. You don’t know what player contracts look like - some could be stepped so they earn more in year 3 than year 2, and you neglected the impact of improved deals to current players. You are making statements without any fact - ie just making stuff up.
-
New contracts are offered and signed all the time, are you suggesting that 2 years ago we weren’t offering players new contracts?
-
You are the one making definitive claims about player contracts, not me. You need to bring evidence forward to back up your claim. I am suggesting why your claim could be wrong. To date you have provided nothing other than playground arithmetic and supposition ie making stuff up. Again.
-
As I’ve said a number of times you do seem to be a very odd man.
You haven’t suggested why my claim could be wrong you jumped on saying I was making stuff up.
Going on about what I said about oxford weeks ago which I corrected at the time and my post the other day which was the most obvious typo ever.
I think you’re obsessed

Redarmy - so in your eyes there should be 92 clubs vying to qualify for Champions League?
