Money is paid to the clubs where players were registered during the two-year period leading up to the finals.” I assumed the Beeb got actual figures not fag packet calculations. Those players were loaned out elsewhere/transferred. No worries, I'll not even bother trying to answer your query next time.

I asked for the actual figures and where they on the FIFA website which you didn’t bother to answer, no worries though ay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless Bristol City are going to launch themselves, as they seem to have been talking about for some time. After his 2 goals last night Knight could look a bit cheap at £1.75 m + adds. Will Pearson get the best out of him? On to Bird , if is head has been turned would we take the same amount for him ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An interesting free read here (about more than the snippet below): "Warne's rebuild is only half-done...Perhaps then, his 'heads turned' comment to Ed Dawes was no gross tactical error committed in the heat of the moment. Perhaps he carefully chose the moment to plant the suggestion of disloyalty in the camp into supporters' minds, to "roll the pitch" before certain popular players are sold to allow him to bring in the 'two or three' new signings he is desperate to make. The obvious assets to sell would be Max Bird, who is well known to be a Hull City target, plus Eiran Cashin..." jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would reflect even worse on Warne than if it was a rash comment made in the heat of the moment IMO. jimtastic56 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He then backtracked and said perhaps other players are influences by key players potentially leaving. Then he tried to cover his tracks by using Vickers as an example. What's suggested here is even worse. This is suggesting he's trying to get the fans to turn on players, in particular players who gave everything they could when the club needed them most. angieram and RoyMac5 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you both, but whoever the writer was has a point. And Warne isn't an idiot. Makes it easier to sell players that the fans don't want though.

Wolfie Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 I love a conspiracy but good grief, it's a stretch to take an admittedly inappropriate rambling brain-dump of a rant and make it out to be some manipulative master-plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes it easier to sell players that the fans don't want though. It does seem completely out of character for Warne though. His "good people" shtick would be completely undermined if it turned out he was basically siccing a hate-mob on a couple of relatively young academy graduates, just to get his own way in the transfer market. The other players aren't idiots either, and I can't imagine it would go down well with them. I still think that by far the most likely explanation is that he really can't understand why it's not working, so is clutching at straws.

Or is Knight just playing with better players and now has the freedom to play without the pressure of being in front of the uber-critical Derby fans who expected so much from 'one of our own'?
