    Thanks that wasn't a dig of any sort just curious and you seem to have a good handle on the finances. In fact I find it pleasing he could take most of his investment back out. It also shows the new owners potentially got a bargain.
    Which adds credibility to my theory they are looking to make a long term profit by selling the club on for a profit. Not so much from player sales. I think the player sales are to show the club as profitable and self sufficient.

    . If thats really the case the people involved in the recruitment process this summer want sacking for gross incompetence and negligence and I mean them all from top to bottom.

    But Judas was a vital part in the eventual rising of Jesus and the saving of mankind from their sins , Christianity being the dominant ideology for centuries to come . So the logical conclusion to your analogy is European domination within 10 years .

    At no time did i say or suggest the previous owner had taken any money out?
    What I said was Financialfootballnews claim BFC made £12.8 million the year before, but no one asks what happened to it.

    All of that statement is factual and not opinion because FFN did put it and people do t ask what happened to it.

    Good signings:
    Chaplin
    Halme
    Odour

    Adequate squad member:
    Thomas

    Failures:
    Radlinger
    Collins (based on him not playing)
    Wilks
    Andersen
    Schmidt
    Sibbick
    Bahre
    Diaby


    That really is an appalling hit rate.

    I'd have taken the long term strategy and left Jesus preaching to the masses until he died of old age. Enough miracles and the same could have been achieved without all the drama!

    I'd shift Halme to adequate - jury still out for me. You can also add the 3 lads signed in January to failures on evidence so far.

    It is. Although I have a feeling that the price we finally move Odour on for will probably more than cover the failures

    Not disagreeing with any of the above but you’ve missed out Moore, Woodrow and Dougall.

    I thought it was a discussion about the summer transfer window. Moore was sold in that window.
