Does MM have money to spend?

Fri Aug 19, 2011 8:44 am

The players brought so far has been great, but it's pretty clear to me that we are still 4-5 players short.

It's been pretty clear for sometime that we have been short of players. MM has also been saying that we lack a few players.

The reason MM doesn't have a plan B is that we don't have a bench.

i gotta say mate, the longer it goes on the more likely it seems that we dont have any funds to play with. but like i've said before this is fine by me as long as we're clearing the historical debt. i just hope we can temper expectation levels along with our budget! malky is doing everything he can so far, lets remember he's got massive job on his hands restructuring the whole club with a new scouting network and youth policy etc. :ayatollah:

I think we have only spent the money so far that we had for Chopra, im guessing we are still skint and very little money is available, i expect us to get more players but only loans or freebies :ayatollah:

Have you got proof that we have actually paid them yet ? If we agreed to pay them yearly, then why pay up the cash straight away when we get it ? Think of all the interest we would have lost,
Theres rumours that all the money went to Ray Ransson aswell

I do not think he has as much money to spend as we originally thought.

You'd think the Malaysians would be quite pleased with Malky's progress. Eight players all on contracts for £1.1million is very good business amongst them six will play international football this season. Mean age of those players is 25. Three with Premiership experience. All very good foundations. :ayatollah:

Then why isn't MM keeping his mouth shut about being there are there abouts come the end of the season?

Doesn't make any sense.

MM could be setting himself up for an epic fail!

Malky is a positive type of manager with high expectations :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

MM has says what he plans to do in terms of additional players. I am sure that he will do just that. A little patience is required in the last days before the window closes.

Not yet totally won over by the Malaysians just yet, What people must remember is that the team MM has put together is mostly players that would have followed Him to Barry Town if he was manager there because they believe in his ability, I dont think any other manager would have recruited such playing staff for so little money spent, I will say that I am a little concerned that our owners may feel they dont have to spend as much as they first thought because of MM's ability do bring good players in (May get laps a Dasie) I hope they don't because MM and the Club deserve better. Not to forget they still have to find cash to pay Langsdon as all the Forensic accountants in the world are not going to help them find away not to pay up. :old:

We spent less than a million on player that is in his prime.

Qtard, that is not a lot of money. Stick to playing FM.

Crawley f*cking town have spent more money than us this season on transfers i knew what was comming before the season started smallest squad for 11years lesser players comming in compared to last season and the owners have cut rite back which i dont mind i will still be there,What i can not grasp is how do they expect to make a return on what they have put in already if we aint spent hardly anything thats what i can not understand.Ok we have a few players DJ left behind but im sure MM will ditch some of them once there out of contract and get his own in but at the min hes stuck with what we got and thats that so i will be greatfull for a mid-table finish to be honest and anything more will be a bonus untill MM does and gets what he wants but only if the owners back him i guess which none of us will never know except from forum bullshit and rumours who knows :lol: :ayatollah:
