As has repeatedly been pointed out though, Gestede has said outgoing sales make no impact on the budget. Whilst I find that hard to believe (surely it at least affects next year's budget), it does mean there's little reason being happy or even content with any sales of decent players. By the same token as 'we've never made the playoffs with him', we've also been on the verge in 3 of the last 4 seasons where he has been playing. The one he played the least games in, where we loaned him out to Ipswich for half the season after sidelining him here, we nearly got relegated.

Because we don't have any good ones.

The 25k every time the case goes to court even if it isn't seen thing can't be real. That's an insane amount of money in India, the figure must be in rupees. If it is real, in pounds, and not just a reflection of the lawyer fees, no wonder the courts put way more cases on their docket than they can possibly see.

Only highlights clip I could find of him, it's from years ago from his time in Japan and Belgium, but perhaps gives a flavour. Apologies if already posted.

Personally I'm sick of it and think they should force clubs to reveal the terms of deals. The fans deserve to know if money is being spent wisely.

I'm expecting him to be better defensively, just as good or slightly better at covering ground, and less effective than him at the final ball. We will see.

Has anybody said that? I've seen people say we have downgraded from Brittain, but nobody who has actually said he's shite.

We are waiting for Ronaldinho to sign on a pay as you play first, but Beckham has signed. Possibly, anyway, he has been photographed in a Rovers shirt but nobody is sure if we pressed send. Don't worry though, we have a 1 billion quid warchest waiting for us if we can just get approval from the court toda- ah they've adjourned. Something fucking like that anyway.

You can pipe up in proceedings? Now that seems like something we could exploit...50 fans all coordinated sort of thing, that would have to garner some attention.

I'll be disappointed if we do. Vile song, that frog was annoying as hell! Plus the original song is great and would serve the same purpose.

I think he was just joking that Amaruso was in the same category

If we are talking time at other clubs it would be Dahlin, surely?

It sounds like Miller can cover ground quickly, yes. But it also sounds like he has nowhere near the attacking ability of Brittain. So we may well get up there with him, but if it leads nowhere there isn't much point. Hopefully he's better at putting a cross in that it sounds like.

Certain posters won't listen though. Apparently everyone is pulling in the same direction here.

They're not. In his last 2 Championship seasons with us, Gallagher scored 11 in 58 appearances. A goal every 5.27 games. The stats you just gave are a goal every 5.07 games for McBurnie. If you take Gally's actual last 2 Championship seasons, so that's his one with Stoke and his last with us, he scored 6 in 46, or a goal every 7.66 games.

It did cross my mind. It truly would be amateur hour again if they ballsed it up on not understanding this, it probably only takes a phone call to the relevant body to know. Then again this is the club that pressed save instead of send.

Yeh I thought there was something along those lines. I think we'd already know by now if he didn't count either way (GBE or through a British work permit in Scotland) as it would be holding up Henriksson.

I may be misremembering, but isn't there a bit of a back door with players in Scotland? I had it in my head they would automatically qualify here after they've been there a certain time.

He has barely made the u21s at times. Terrible signing.

Who is Jon Percy?

Shows up your lack of understanding about fitness and conditioning then.

It's almost as if there are 10 other players in a team, who vary in their availability and form, and different sets of opponents. By this sort of logic, Gally was a good player for us. Stats like this got used to show his alleged value to the team before. I like stats but they don't paint the whole picture.

Gotta admit, you've completely lost me there
