I'm walking home, it is raining and I felt like posting on here. Thanks for the opinion though.

I prefer the humorous contributions from the likes of essuruu personally.

Why not have the investigation anyway? Corrupt tw*ts -
I missed a lot today! Seems the ban expired automatically but was then enforced by the mods. Calm down and carry on.

Without mlt I presume

Oh I see. So when deppo reported people it was all part of the comic genius that I did not realise. When others reported people it was pathetic. Gotcha.
-
A predictable comeback. I'm embarrassed for you.
-
Well you've made yourself look pretty idiotic.
-
I never said it was.
-
The first point I disagree with but even if we discount that, the fact the league is harder warrants spending on quality if we want to win promotion.
-
I agree! Apparently according to some you aren't allowed to give your opinion on something which may happen in the future though...
-
In terms of profit it has been fantastic!

Yep, though bedwetters was what TDD called them and I think that sums it up well. -
Selective quoting is your speciality
-
That is what my friend told me yes. I still have my own misgivings though and I suppose our transfer strategy will prove how correct he was or not!
-
I'm not panicking, I'm waiting to see what signings we make which will form my opinion about our financial situation. Not sure why you think I am panicking, I'm not saying 'FFS we haven't signed anyone!'

Amazing the selective memory you have when you can remember the smallest details in posts from more than six months ago. FWIW I answered the point on here and on football forums where you are a running joke and routinely voted the most infuriating and dull poster on there. In regards to your point, at NO point did I not say we have lofty ambitions. A training ground does not gain value but neither does it lose it. It's an investment which will always be recouped through the purchase price of the club. It is quite possible that Markus agreed to any necessary training ground expansions before his death. In fact, I would imagine it quite likely considering how forward thinking Cortese supposedly is. Buying a player is a much more risky investment since they could break their leg and never play again. In my opinion, there is a possibility that following Markus' death our revenue stream has been reduced. Not stopped completely but we have had to tighten our belts. The expansion of the training ground does not influence this opinion since it is quite possible that this was agreed beforehand. I have seen little evidence to the contrary THUS FAR to challenge this. That is why I think signings this summer will be interesting. You may disagree with this but it is my opinion and I feel like I am repeating myself because you continue to make the same points over and over and over.

And I think that would be a good haul. Shows our ambition, brings in players with massive potential and who are able to play in the Premiership most likely.
-
That is a fair point. IF it was the case that we didn't spend money because we didn't have to, then it follows that now we DO have to spend money that we will.
-
TBF I like it with the halo above the I. Personal choice though I suppose.
-
Sorry but hate it. It looks amateurish and if you are spending a load of money on it we need it to look good.
-
No it is not. The money for the training ground could quite easily have been agreed by Markus before his death with certain finance ringfenced. The 'upgrade' of facilities could have been planned all along and released to the fans as a decent bit of PR. Additionally, the training ground does not lose its value and can be added onto the for sale price should the club ever be put up for sale. With regards to the rest of your points, I have answered them before as you are fully aware. Go and find the thread I answered them in and remind yourself of my answer (I think I repeated it twice hoping it would quieten you down.)
-
I realise it is the 18th of June. If you read what I said, I said I would be at the front of the queue congratulating the club and being excited if we sign quality, but if we were to go the way of many of our signings from last season then IMO our financial support has been reduced.
-
Well then we will see MLG and I will be at the front of the queue being excited if what he says does happen. If it doesn't though then I will question the level of finance we have available to us, especially with our stated aim of reaching the premiership as quickly as possible.
