  1. They are coming back down but would expect to recoup a lot of their transfer expenditure if they move on Delap,Hutchison and Greaves.
  2. The £38.9m figure you quote is misleading. Per Note 7 of the accounts it includes £15.6m of bonus costs payable on the club's promotion to the Premier League. Deduct that from the £38.9m and you get a number not hugely different from our wage bill.
  3. Obviously he's a decent, principled guy who, unlike some, shows respect to supporters who don't share his views. I've felt for years now that the owners will leave as a result of some kind of pressure or events within India and with the best will in the world I don't think Glen's campaign will work to achieve it.
  4. No - simply stating the facts. I've no idea why some posters are so determined to take the most pessimistic view of absolutely everything. As I recall this time last year some posters thought there was no chance of Tygon staying - but he did.
  5. Whilst I agree with the last line of your post it shouldn't be overlooked that 2 of those promotions occurred under the previous ownership and currently they have Burnley one division lower than when they acquired the club.
  6. I wasn't there but the thing I will always remember is that it was only a few seconds after Liverpool scored their winning goal that the news came through that Man United had only drawn and so we were champions.
  7. That is correct. I suspect that if we had won our last three games, rather than losing them, this "story" would never have seen the light of day.
  8. It is several months now since Wharton played 90 minutes in the Premier League and I did hear a radio commentator say that he was blowing very hard when he came off in his last game against Ipswich so perhaps Palace have had a quiet word with Tutchel to say that it might be best for him to stay with them to work on his fitness.
  9. At present it appears that he's a graduate of the Tony Hibbert school of goalscorers.
  10. I get the impression with Cantwell that when he retires in his mid 30s and is asked why he didn't go on to achieve what his first season or two at Norwich suggested he might he will blame the players around him rather than look at himself.
  11. Way over the top - we don't need a win "desperately" - there will still be a significant proportion of the season to go. For some reason, only known to yourself, you are trying to create a sense of crisis and panic around the club.
  12. On that basis it looks like his tactical approach is based on the players at his disposal - which is what you want in a manager . We don't want what's happened at Manchester United where the new manager insists on playing one particular way even though it doesn't suit the squad he has inherited.
  13. Good to see O'Riordan score yesterday and he had the Man Of The Match award on the whoscored.com website. Hopefully a sign that after a poor first year with us he's turning the corner.
