York City 1 Town 1

...Mirf !

Would I 'win' a sausage if I cut your grass then ?

Hey Wakey

I don't know about the atmosphere rocking darn at the Shay....
But I do know 1st hand, It's rock BOTTON at the 'Pharm

Botton - Bottom-Rotten....
Is that like using your 'get out of gaol free card

cant go back over the Rhodes deal..
there is not a club in the land outside the premier league who wouldn't have gone with the first Fulham bid of 4 million.. never mind ignoring the 5 then 6 million bid from a clearly deranged board at Blackburn..
dean held firm, I be Rhodes his agent and his dad had already been forcefully in deans ear(I don't want to stay, he wont play properly etc etc etc) as soon as the first bid was made...
8 million was and still is , very silly money for Rhodes and I have no comment other than, well done dean about it..
speaking with an acquaintance, who is a very well respected and used accountant, he says he knows of 5 clubs in our league who are within a "nats nuts" (his words) of administration, but who are stillborrowing to buy players and pay wages that they cannot(without promotion) cover in a million years..
Keep at the good work deano, this season and the first 6 months of next season will see some serious "casualties" who cannot be then "saved" by pretence of bankruptcy and sell the "jack all" they have left to a new benefactor..they will fall...
I was truly shocked at what I found out and I was a true cynic beforehand...
I once said "football will eat itself", from what I learned its just on the last few crumbs now at a lot of clubs...

Football is well and truly on its way to a rear end collapse.
It's ok the Premier League shouting from the rooftops about record tv deals but the fact is the game in this country hasn't got it finances in any order what so ever.
Even the latest compromise is a load of tosh. Clubs are allowed to lose millions(10s of millions at the top) and you don't get punished.
Just like Super League in RL the Premiership only has its own interests at heart. Once clubs in the top flight start to fold only then will they look at a proper reform on how we run clubs
Premiership football was the beginning of the end of football in this country If you ask me

I see the goal that York scored last night was down to none other than jack fookin hunt !!!!!!
New season same old problems . If I was town I would sell him for 50 quid before he's worth nothing .

8 million was and still is , very silly money for Rhodes and I have no comment other than, well done dean about it..

Yea it is silly money but you have no chance of getting it all,£4 mill with laddered bits up to them having to win prem,well that's what a Blackburn fan said on twitter and he thought £4 to £5 mill will be most blackburn will end up paying as all goals have to be reached in next 4 yrs.still good money for player who had only done it at L1 level at the time.

Eh, what goals are these then?

The deal was something along the lines of
3million up front
2million in year 2
1.5million in year 3
1.5million in year 4
All of which are guaranteed payments

The only other part of the deal was a 20% sell on deal if and when it happens

Come on superwhites, I thought you'd have more sense than to believe anything said on twitter...especially from some Blackburn fan who won't know his ar-ehole from his earhole.

It's £8,000,000 GUARANTEED

towns accounts will show that 8 million is to be paid over a set amount of time..
the sell on clause of 20% was over the first 3 years of any deal that Rhodes had at Blackburn(looks like he will be sold in the next 4 weeks).
addendum also attached is full and final settlement of outstanding monies(including sell on fee) as soon as he is sold on(we might get the full sum in the next few weeks).. odds on deano thought this may well happen and factored it into his plans..
we may be much better off than we thought, much quicker....
