Proper cryptic shite.

First one was “hhhhhhmmmmm”

Second one “what a day. Good night see you tomorrow”

Third “good morning let the day begin”

People jumped all over it making assumptions. It just ties in with Ross saying we’d know something in the next 48 hours.

Aye ross commented aswell saying he’s expecting it to become more clear very soon. What did his agent say?

Why? We shouldn't bet letting all our youngplayers get down to the last 6 months of their deals man, fuck sake :lol:

How the fuck am I meant to know the individual wage of each player, neither do you, so if I can't comment then neither can you

If all your young players have their contracts running out then as a c lub you are doing something wrong, basic.

The point you make is your usual rant against the club, they had other things to deal with of greater importance than sorting contracts for these kids and after six months they have got round to it. Your senseless rants about everything and your know- it-all attitude lead me to think you belong up the road. Please stop boring the hell out of me and f*** off.

I think they could've done a couple of thing better in relation to it, no doubt - the deadline etc was a misstep. But it's disingenuous to say that they should've came in and just sorted all the contracts (not saying you said that), at the time there were more pressing issues.

I disagree with that I fink it was massively important to get the right players in during the summer but after that I fink the next pressing matter was tieing the best young players down

Charlie done a podcast they asked him did they have a plan he said yes take advantage of the academy as it’s one of the very best in the country they want to bring in young talent develop them play them then sell on for big profit and start again always looking to add very good young talent To the club

So if that’s the plan surely it would be urgent to get the best 4 young players from the academy tied down



This is exactly what Charlie said the gameplan was but for this to work they had to tie down the best young players earlier than now

That was (and I assume still is) the plan - hence giving Gooch a new contract. Maja's situation has been different, in part due to an agent that's playing hard-ball - I really don't think just hading out cotracts when they came in to all the young lads who were going out of contract was a wise, or even feasible, move given how fucked our finances were.

Was likely to be fair. Upthere has been on point a fair bit with this. Had some dialogue with him very early in the window

Upthere is one of MadBob's alter ego's mate. He's not spot on about anything, just total guesswork and mostly full of shit :lol:

Great loyalty to the club.

It's a good move for him tbf. To go from possible third tier to potentially Ligue 1. He's honoured his contract here. Club only in a mess because they didn't sort him out with a deal before he entered this season.

They also said earlier in the season when gooch, hume and Maja were already making an impact that financially because of what they'd agreed with the league and the implications of still possibly having to pay/pay off the likes of ndong and djilobodji they weren't able to offer anything, nevermind the kind of wages that Maja now has been offered.

Just not as simple as you're making out. In some cases like Embleton it's simple and probably Hume. But in the last year of a contract when a young player is making an impact and has interest from other clubs you cannot blame the current people in charge when there's been financial restraints and the previous regime has let all those contracts run down.
