ThomohawkKid Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 JG hasn’t made any pre-contract signings yet although trying - so if those “in the know” are still claiming we have, it’s a player or players he’s not chosen which doesn’t fill me with hope. A player Glass would want is a completely different style to what we might want now. Link to comment
thurso Posted May 12, 2022 Share Posted May 12, 2022 I heard from a very reliable source that we are signing Mbappe and Pogba on Bosmans, they just don’t want it announced yet as it might ruin their chances of getting a game at psg and msn untied respectively Link to comment

It's pretty simple to me if you believe Cormack. We're £2m over budget every year on the playing side (and that's seems to be the case even with DNA which brings in c£600k) So we need to sell someone for £2m every summer (or equivalent) to break even on the football operation. Need to be finishing better than 10th with that model. It also puts a lot of pressure on the youth development department. Link to comment

It's perfectly reasonable to ask questions about how the chairman and his board are managing the club's finances. Especially when there's an extra £40k per week being piled into the football budget. Which is huge money in Scottish terms. Link to comment

People were, yourself included and the funniest thing is, Cormack had mentioned the budget increase previously and no one even brought it up, now you and several others are convinced we are over our budget by £2m which we aren't. 1 Link to comment

It’s the way they have spent it that should be criticised. 1 Link to comment

Andy_123 Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 To increase the budget by £2m and end up with the disgrace of a squad we’ve had this season is quite an achievement. Had our recruitment in summer not been so unbelievably pish and we’d ended the season up in 3rd/4th I doubt anybody would be batting an eyelid at the increased budget this season. I do think banking on selling a player for £2m+ most seasons is a big risk for us though. Link to comment
