I think he probably means wages. This will be correct. McGeady and Grigg will frustratingly be on big bucks i'd imagine and it will mean we have the biggest budget. Its not something Donald should make a loud noise about and its weird that people back the chairman by stating that fact. We have the biggest budget and finished 7th and neither of the two well payed players mentioned played because they were lazy and shite last season. I'd be making a loud noise if i budget was smaller an we were in the top 6 - doing the opposite just highlights what a bunch of idiots they are.
Exactly, having the biggest wage bill in the league and finishing 8th isnt exactly a glowing indicator of how they are performing.
Which is what exactly ?
So can anyone tell me what ‘advantage’ there is to this biggest budget ??? It seems to be what’s holding us back as we have too many high paid players and are unable to get others in because of it !! Again WHY does SD and his hoop lickers continue to spew this line out when it is of no benefit to us and certainly doesn’t mean we can spend more than any others ???
The thread was about the importance of the fans getting Donald to stay on because everything was great. Now after months we've eventually heard from Donald and we've been left in no doubt that he doesn't want to do that.
And you think the OP has the answer ??? There are a couple of club arse lickers on here who know fuck all but pretend to. Probably know someone in the f***ing canteen man !
They f***ing love the attention and the fact that they can string people along on here with their unique and privileged knowledge. Made up narcissistic Bollox
Proof incontrovertible that you’re either working for this shower of shite in some capacity or you’re immensely delusional. If it’s the former you can piss off with them and take know-nowt Berb with you. If it’s the latter I apologise, it must be tough.
There is a very strong correlation between success in football and the biggest wage budget. Typical that we prove to be the exception.
Sadly this. It should be directly proportional if the football side of the business does their job. Biggest budget should equal first place. Theoretically SDs job is to recruit good people then give them the biggest budget to spend.
No idea mate, he claims he does which is why I'm after an update upon his return. There was a thread a month or two back where he claimed the owners were wanting to draw a line under everything that had happened. I assume that's changed given their approach to the meeting last week, or maybe it hasn't. I'm interested in hearing what he has to say on the subject.
That's not necessarily true at all. Turn it on its head and think about the tens of millions we've spent over recent years on absolute garbage. I think it's quite possible, with the right manager, to spend less but wisely. It's about having an eye for a player, having a plan in mind as to what you want and persuading the players - free transfers or low budget ones in this cuurrent climate, to come to the SOL.
I agree he just needs to invest and put out a better team and the fans will come round. We are at the point were Stewart Donald needs to show ambition!
Having a manager for more than 1/2 seasons as well, as it allows development. Look at Wycombe as fortunate as they were their performance is built on the longest serving manager in the country.
