Hamer is bloody cute in these interviews; he doesn't lie but he makes you think he has said things that he hasn't.
He did not say that all the proceeds of player sales had been spent on new players.
He said that all monies received, and bear in mind that he was very clear about big deferred instalments so these would not have been received yet so he isn't including those, had been reinvested in the squad.
And as he stressed later squad investment includes wages.
So he was strictly truthful but gave a false impression that the amount for which the players were sold was spent on new players.
It clearly wasn't and he didn't actually say that; he just made you think that he did.
Clever guy; that's why he earns £70k for a part time job.
I worked with someone who similarly wouldn't lie; if there was a call and somebody didn't want to speak to the caller she would put her hand over her eyes and say "I can't see him."
It's not telling lies but it is fooling people.
Is the saying something like ‘you can fool some people some of the time but you can’t fool all people all of the time’

For a team that’s scored less than one goal a game, going 1 down is a definite problem!

What’s mental is they have the second best ‘goals against’ record and the third worst goals scored record! So glad they don’t have any strikers!

Few people by me are going home already. ‘Wasted afternoon’ And ‘really not worth it’ their summation. Not sure I really blame them.
4-0 down at half time maybe, but 1-0 down, that’s rediculous!

Let's look at detail what this methane snorter is actually saying;
1] "more like a professional club" By his own admission its an amateur club. Well we can see that on a daily basis.
2] "Mind the gap" Well its coming up to 18 years since they were last above us and looking at the proposed plans for the training facility and the arena at Ashton Gate against two tents without planning permission I would estimate the gap is widening rapidly.
3] "The blue few" The actual home fans attending the last match was more like half the capacity so he's right about not being able to do anything about the size or capacity of their ground. I would suggest running back and forth several times to fill up those empty spaces.
4] They can't afford to get rid of dopey.
5] "Building a house with foundations" You don't need foundations to pitch a tent, only a few tent pegs.
6] "Surroundings that their support deserves" I think they already have that, in a word, pathetic.
Deluded muppet
I love the ‘DC wouldn’t have signed a five year contract unless he knew what Wael had planned’, comment, of course he would. “Darryl do you want financial stability for 5 years even if you do badly and get sacked in a career where 99% of managers get sacked?”, what do you think he’s going to say? “No thanks Wael i’ll take my chances!”.
It’s got nothing to do with stadiums or training grounds that may or may not be in the pipeline, anyone with any sense would take the 5 year deal. And the problem they now have is that it will cost them to sack him because of the crazy deal they gave him!

It has but it’s pretty damp and unloved! Not seen much skittles being played there for a while, since John left it’s gone to the dogs a bit

For the love of God can they please start listing the team in formation order. This isnt even pure number order anymore. Maenpaa should be last on the list according to their system.
It's petty and I know there are bigger issues in the world but it ******* winds me right up.
Hunt and Kalas upfront, very bold move

Most transfers are paid in instalments.
Correct, I was replying to somebody else who suggested they had £750k in the bank from Harrison sale

They’ve signed a striker!! Unbelievable! He sounds great as well, 64 goals in 251 games (1 in 4) or if you remove the 2 seasons where he played non league for Dover scoring 40 in 98, he’s actually scored 24 in 153 games or 1 in 6 as I like to call it, amazing!

First game of season against a team who have spent a fortune, a credible draw really, 45 games to go!
