Bamfords

, are they actually allowed to lose that much? Not that it matters to them.

This makes it even funnier that we stopped their long unbeaten run and derailed their playoff push.

 What makes it funnier is his of lack mathematical ability with all them fingers.  He should look at the league table.

Their rambling drivel seems to not note historical football debts of 3 million quid and 800 k in agent fees that needed clearing.  Can we lend them a tenner for the car park or was the £9.99 payoff enough for team that were promoted having finished 7th.

My bad. But it was still Sibley first to get pulled. Again. Despite playing well.

I think there are better lookers at the club, so I'm surprised.  He perhaps has a sparkling personality.

Glad he's here as an option.  Not so glad about this 300 k loan bollox, then signing on a free.  Beyond weird.

Got to admit Dirties v PNE very entertaining. 
On a side note heard Bamford is a Florist fan. Am I the only one who didn’t know this

Yeah.  They disowned him at his delight in the 5-0.

Didn't he go through their academy? One of their previous owners was also his godfather .

Part of the JCB empire isn't he.

I see Sheff United got another ludicrous penalty decision to earn a point today. Have they won a point this season that hasn't been thanks to VAR or a referee's decision?

They got for a penalty in the 100th minute against Wolves that didn't go to VAR. Thats 2 points they shouldn't have had.

The Ward thing hadn’t even crossed my mind today, that is odd isn’t it?

We had a fair few lacklustre set pieces today and as Ward’s one main asset we could have used his delivery later in the game. He was carrying an injury after the Bradford game so maybe he’s not fully fit? But then if he’s on the bench he’s in theory fit. Ah well, let’s see if he’s involved in Tuesday.

Mentioned Ward as the best option with 25 to go.  We couldn't beat the doubling up.  An instant whip in without requirement to beat a man drags them out.  Very weird he wasn't utilised today

Phew, well done cashin 

Lost him like he had flippers on first

poor from Collins.  Good chance

We seem to have one way in this match- out wide and it's not working .  Ward out wide to cross in seems the best option.  Just don't ask him to cover on the overlap.

Turgid.  Cashin back on an old habit of glueing himself to someone quicker than him like a limpet.  Thought he'd shifted that quirk.  Hopefully a one off.  

Should we surprise them and play a ball through midfield.

Yes, odd that one. Fornah has ability and offers something different, surprised he doesn’t seem to be getting a look in. 

He seems unable to read the game without a delay in his movement and looks increasingly lost regarding his place in a system . He also seems to hold possession too long. Surprising after playing in this league before and a full season at a faster level which should have set him up for this move.

One more pint then walking to ground , some of these Lincoln fans are not very welcoming , be even more peed off when we take the 3pts back to Derby with us good luck to the lads COYR

Probably infiltrated by Forest fans having a day out from Skegness.  Look for the tell tale love heart tattoo with the word sister.

I reckon we’re in for some Sibley magic today, did his job well on Monday after replacing Elder, good mins for the u21s to sharpen the tools on Tuesday, statement performance today. 🔮 

He played behind the striker in the EFL trophy and tore them a new one.  Not so much at full back .

It's all gone a bit quiet on CBT joining the Rams. Is it still on, he certainly won't figure in the Lincoln game now.

Was due a medical according to Radio last night.  Either it's Monday or maybe he's failed.  That would be a bugger.

And Liam Dickinson!

Remember his first match against Burton in a friendly.  Had about 5 sitters missed whilst Steve Davies looked a level above.  It was either nerves or he couldn't hit a cows arse with a banjo.  Appears it was the cow scenario.

To my untrained eye the ‘headline’ of losing £6.8m in 9 months doesn’t sound good. Don’t understand a lot of what has been written in this thread, but am I to take it that it’s not something to worry unduly about and is the club able to be run sustainably (ie not run up similar losses on an on-going basis - is this figure a symptom of the takeover/admin and not how just how ridiculously stupidly expensive it is to run a football club!?)

Historical agent fees. Bielik - are Birmingham covering his 35k wage or were we/are we possibly covering part.  1.5 million to Arsenal.  1.4 mil to Poznan for Jozwiak.  Maintenance to the ground/ pitch with little previous maintenance other than legal requirements for a year, with fees up front for future maintenance rather than rolling. Common for a lot of businesses after admin.  No shirt sponser.  Limited corporate functions.  ?

Quite a lot of historical/re-launching overheads I'd imagine.

Without checking these accounts, was I correct that helping Krystian achieve his World Cup dream that lasted a full season got us zero transfer fee and a further 1.5 million to cover this January as way of thanks.

True. Didn't look at the date on the line item. 

So the interesting bit then becomes, all those free agents cost £1m in agent fees.

Seem to recall there was a large amount of historical agent debt to clear from Mels glory year.

Yep. Maybe this time we have learned our lessons. Lets hope so 

To be fair I can recall us bringing loads of youngsters McDonald Koblenz, Calero etc for minimal fees. None did a deal. a 200k or 100k here and thre isn't money well spent on potential when it's took weeks bartering over 100 k for their number 1 target.  When they have more cash to spend OK.  At the minute a 200 k gamble in this league equates to a 2 million gamble in the funds we seem to have at our disposal in real terms.

Buy both Mark Lillis(Smith) and Phil Gee(Young) if you are old enough to get what I'm going on about Comrade

Cox was offered Gee and Steve Bull by a scout who'd been looking for potential but couldn't afford both as he had brought in another striker.  I assume that would be Lillis then.
