I will be pished if we waste money earned from our youth development on a short term loan for a washed up oldie. Please don’t let this happen

Or a lack of belief in the direction the club is going?

Found this tribunal is only needed when a player under 24 years of age moves clubs having reached the end of his contract. Whatever valuation the tribunal comes up with is non-negotiable. The player has already changed clubs and there is no right of appeal on either side once a figure has been reached.

If he sees out his contract do we lose tribunal option

Only if there is swap of involved

Still don’t know how they negotiated a reduced penalty for that one. They still think we should have been relegated instead of them. Probably unable to read a league table

But apparently he is just L1 average wish we had a few more average players in the 11😀

hit and hope

bad

that was in his first game, didn't play again. He is the right sort of player but a bit of a crock. just looks like another gamble on fitness

when DC sells us to the right people that understand sustainable growth. What we need ideally is a local self-made man with loads of cash to burn. Someone we can trust to stay with us through thick and thin, what could go wrong?

starting to wonder whether 352 only works with our captain on the bench

but in this calculation there will be many potential answers as long as it compliant with the standard expenditure rules.

possibly but unless you are DC or SP that can't be certain. if you present a budget to your boss and it is agreed without challenge then you missed a chance to make it more favourable to you

what are these EFL restrictions? Nobody seems to know. Maybe they exist maybe they don't but DCFC have said that the EFL agreed the budget the club had prepared. So it is our budget, perhaps they prepared it in anticipation of what the EFL would expect and next year we will be able to spend more? If we are still in Div1 and we have continued to make the losses recently announced I very much doubt it.

Yes it seems odd and surprisingly underhand. Not having a dig at DC because it is his choice whether to throw more money at this. Lower expectations = lower season ticket revenue?

The budget won’t change unless we get promoted

Says it all for me.

Every year we have a 4 year plan just we never progress from #1. I don’t recall the current plan though. I would guess that if yr1 dies not result in promotion then yr2 season ticket sales will reflect this?

You indicated financial restrictions end at the end but of the season. I am yet to be persuaded the budget will not change much.

So you believe DC is itching to throw more money at the club? I am not convinced but time will tell

Ooo er missus

Agreed that was the first time 3 and the back seemed to work but like you say it was just not cheltenham. I actually thought it worked due to our captain being withdrawn and the consequential appearance of Bird who was any anonymous before then

Eddie effing Lewis, wonder if he is available

So says everybody here twice a year every year since the arrival of the mad one. Does seem we end up with crap or broken ones and overpay for them
