I remember the 1 million pages on here (exaggerating) when Lua Lua signed. How the mighty fall. Sad to be fair, he needs to take a leaf out of Knocky's book.
In the current generation, where we have also made money, we have only brought through Dunk, I could say March but he came through non league. What have we actually produced that if we haven't kept has made us a few quid?
The reason I say this, how many clubs, especially Prem, live on their kids? Most are a farm to make money, Southampton being the biggest farm.
My question is: Why is everyone so obsessed by kids, when in reality we'll get one or two out of our academy every decade?
I love your honesty and well done for saying it. I have suffered from some form of chronic fatigue syndrome all my life and done nothing about it. I may just read this thread and see where it takes me.
I like this simmo, a lot, and agree. Trouble I have is, we respect the likes of Knocky and he respects us for mourning with him. I know it is a case of where do we stop, but where do we? I haven't got a clue. If someone could come up with a definitive answer I'd be there..
How do you tell...
I read on there 3.2 miles from the nearest station to Hillsborough, 3.6 to ours with 2 stations in between. I am (surprisingly) impressed with their forthright comments.
Some very good genuine suggestions. I may only be 52 but the stairs to WSU are really, really tiring. Having said that, from what I remember, it is the same at the Emirates, so we are in good company.
That would be called speculation, like most of this thread. TB turned down £8 million for him in the summer, as his vision seems to be quite exquisite. I don't see the problem, if the chairman doesn't, with spunking £8 mill if it means we are promoted come summer. We will be looking at up to 6-8...
