Jamie-H 1,322 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 I'll say it, if Strachan was in charge and we went through a day like today we'd be tar and feathering him for the next month for failing to identify and failing to attain what the squad needs to move forward.

boro-unger 3,817 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 don't understand where the supposed promises of reinvesting the bennett money came from... mogga's quotes on the MFC site: "We did a lot of our business as early as we could in the transfer window and I'm not sitting here with the money from Joe's transfer burning a hole in my pocket," said Mowbray. "To the chairman's great credit, he's probably paid out more than he intended, so this can help to balance the books. But there may be a little left to strengthen if we want to." so basically, the bennett money was mainly to balance the books from the earlier signings. but i do agree with people wondering why we wouldn't go for sharp etc on loan :s Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie-H 1,322 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Look at the Woodgate deal. Noone knew about it... Not even our ITK lads. So let's just wait and see Magooder knew bout it. Wasn't it Magooders cousins dogwalkers hairdresser or something who told him? I just remember it was a fantastic story of how he knew. Link to post Share on other sites
stubbzy69 38 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Strachan and Mowbray should not be compared EVER Link to post Share on other sites

But it was said at the start of the summer that we were in the position that we didnt need to sell any of our young stars, and if we did it would be for silly money and that it would go back into the squad.

Magooder 40 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 My Woodgate story was my way of wanting to reveal the info without having to claim to be 'in the know'! LOL. I've 'come out' (for lack of a better word!) now though when I realised just how unbelievable it actually was. :P Link to post Share on other sites

CurtisFleming 86 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 also lets get it straight, we received millions for Bennett and we had only spent thousands before him so.... Just ***ed of other teams have been able to strengthen. Sharp to Forest is the eptomine of this By standing still we have went backwards. Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie-H 1,322 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 This is probably lost somewhere probably behind his ego but has Owen moved anywhere yet? I'm not saying us but I'd assume he'll follow the money trail and might end up at a Championship club perhaps given how late in the day it is? Link to post Share on other sites
Magooder 40 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 He hasn't officially gone anywhere yet.. Who knows? If so, I'm sure we'd be well up there on his list... Link to post Share on other sites
CurtisFleming 86 Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 Owen would look very silly if he did indeed join a champo club. I dont think he will Link to post Share on other sites
