A bad move for sure but it shows what a complete mess Gartside and Eddie have made of the club.
I know fair play, rules also have an impact but this is a ridiculous state of affairs.The club are only just seeing the results of the investment in the Academy and now they are in part, dismantling it.
A few reduced fees for any of the youngsters, would show the folly of this decision. The club could sell one of our young players who is coming through the ranks and make up the shortfall. Now I'm not advocating that they do that but believe me, they way the club is going, all the young players that are coming through and progress, will be sold at some time in the future to prop up the club.
There is only one solution, Eddie Davies has to sell the club. Oh! Hang on a minute, he can't because no sane person is going to buy almost £200,000,000 of debt.
“I’ll show them said Phil always the same with that lot. You wait until the fog clears then they’ll see there are no icebergs anywhere near us”
Meanwhile on the I.O.M Eddie raises a fair point.
“Well at least Phil you counted the lifeboats and we have more than enough for everybody and to be doubly sure you have the fax of our insurance policy in back pocket”
That fax will haunt him till he goes to his grave.
I don't think I've been more depressed about the club, since the dark old days when part of the embankment was sold to the Co-Op.
I do still have hope but if the worst was to happen, it wouldn't be a complete surprise.
Just to add to my post. I remember going to quite a few games where you could almost count the supporters. Perhaps a couple of thousand die hard fans.
It was soul destroying. God help it never gets that bad again.
Disastrous move for our long term prospects. Cutting costs in the wrong place when people like Fat Phil are on massive six figure salaries for failing.I hope Eddie sells the club ASAP. Right now I think he's dragging us rapidly towards oblivion by leaving his buddy in charge and frankly I think this club would now be better off in other hands.
Just as younger players are starting to come through . Cutting costs in the wrong area. Maybe there is no future.
Think the term you are looking for Benny is "Armageddon".I predicted this mess four years ago remember.
It's a joke and nuns was right. What are the lotto numbers for 2019 mid-June?
Christ! Doom n gloom club are out again!
Not sure the positive club have an agenda this month. Or the next....
