Marina's Rolls Royce Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 So the "credible" posters perhaps not so credible after all. ITK = NITK What a lot of bullox perpetuated by people who are only too happy to lap up and re-post utter hogwash particularly if it suits their agenda. Fleming wasn't sacked , the players have a day off today and Lampard was as likely as Pep. Bookies laughing all the way to the bank. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barkhamred Posted November 6, 2023 Report Share Posted November 6, 2023 Surely the players are going to be informed when they were in. But now today is a scheduled day off. Which implies they were not being informed today. (Or do they all get a Whats App message telling them the new name!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So our last set of published accounts were for which season - 21-22? Is that right? I'm willing to bet those are the figures Jon Boy is using when he sits there and says "we have a top 10 budget", "we're under-performing for the budget" etc. Whereas we all know that, since then, there has been massive cost cutting, high earning players have left, new players bought from Aldi not Harrods, wage reductions across the board etc. etc. To the point you and our other resident bean counters are confident that our current budget as of today is NOT top 10 - anymore. If so, Jon Boy is just being dishonest, ambiguous, lying. Call it what you will. I mean, as has been pointed out on here already, and I wish a journalist would put to Jon Boy or Gavin Marshall - our budget cannot be more than any of the clubs currently in receipt of Parachute Payments can it? And there are half a dozen of those? Then there's Stoke, West Brom - I bet Wednesday are paying Barry Bannan an absolute fortune etc etc. Edited November 6, 2023 by Merrick's Marvels 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another excuse removed when this doesn’t work. We are 4 points behind Preston in 6th, there is two thirds of the season left. Now we have removed our “underperforming” manager just watch us go.

They have a day off and return to training tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a lot of it is Chinese whispers and people getting excited rather than malicious shitstirring. For example: Lansdown tells Fleming "Curtis, we will let you go once we've got a new manager in" Someone overhears that and tells their mate "just heard them say they are letting Curtis go". That mate tells someone "they've let Curtis go today". That someone posts on here "Curtis has been let go" Everyone piles in on that and suddenly he's been fired yesterday.
