It was touted around all the time we owed Arsenal 8 for him still. That’s probably already been paid to exit admin through football debt but clowes can’t be happy to be 8 million down and sell him for a million No. That's not how it works. All existing payment schedules have been kept. All money due before exiting administration will have been paid Comrade 86 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hennessey wasn't even the worst Welsh GK at the World Cup despite getting sent off. Brennan Johnson and Dan James were statistically the two worst wingers too. Also, how can anyone have watched this World Cup and decided only 1 Qatar player makes the worst 11. jimtastic56 and Tamworthram 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently scheduled payments stand. Extreme example, but what you're suggesting is, even if there was a £100m PL title bonus, the club (DC) would have had to pay that in full to exit administration, rather than waiting for that event to materialise.

Jubbs Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 L'Equipe notorious for their weird ratings. They've only ever given out 10/10 like 15 times in 20 or so years. They gave the referee yesterday 2/10, so make of that what you will. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And even then, whoscored tend to under-rate ball-playing midfielders a lot at the best of times. If you aren’t doing lots of “stuff” that counts towards their formula, you don’t get a high rating. And picking up loose balls, and playing forward passes that break the lines doesn’t seem to count very much (unless those passes directly lead to goals and you get points for an assist).

Ambitious Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Nixon linking a player who can't play for us this season is a rough bit of journalism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oldben Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Birmingham delusional in their belief, that a swap deal can be done for our 8 million pound former arsenal player bielik, and in exchange, we take the awful Sam Cosgrove. Cosgrove I'm sure many are aware is not wanted, at Birmingham and for good reason. At 26, Cosgrove should be playing, some of his best football he's not. He's reputed to be worth 1 million. he's never been a prolific striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gee SCREAMER !! Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 5 hours ago, RoyMac5 said: They'd be willing to swop a pile of dog s*** they want off their wage bill, no doubt valuing him for FFP at the same rate of 2 million. I think we're better getting him shifted to another championship club for 1.5 million quid and paying of Arsenal this years fee to allow us to bring someone in who may actually be useful and leaving them to pay Cosgroves wages. A bag of s*** and a bag of asbestos doesn't really cut it as far as deals go. Crewton 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldben Posted December 20, 2022 Share Posted December 20, 2022 If our club did a deal for Cosgrove. We would be doing it for the wrong reason. At Plymouth Cosgrove, has scored 6 goals in 15 appearances this season. He's unwanted at Birmingham, while they do want bielik. Cosgrove is a lot younger than mcgoldrick and is a better player in my opinion than mcgoldrick. It's likely to be Cosgrove plus some cash for bielik. Under those circumstances the club might decide to a deal. There's a problem, Birmingham want to get rid of Cosgrove because they don't want him. Recalling Cosgrove might upset plymouth, that's not important. I think Birmingham get the better deal if they get bielik. Cosgrove plus cash doesn't give us the money to repay arsenal for bielik. Since we can only sign free agents, we are left with the ability to only sign players that are surplus to requirements at their clubs plus being the wrong side of 30. They don't offer the club any resale value. I would prefer to sign a better player than Cosgrove but without paying a transfer fee, what chance do we have.
