Let's not have any bleeding heart responses to this posting about the Board know Best
Rhodes. Pilkington. Norwood Hunt Clayton Pelts now Coady Seven yes 7 players who would have us in the play off positions combined with the rest of our team. How can the average fan ever believe we can get out of this league other than by going down?
FACT. It's simply impossible to build a good team when you sell all your best players

How do we make Progress?
1. Increase attendances.
2. Get shut of players who don't want to play for the club.
3. Financially do what we can to counteract point 1 and keep our head above water.

It is simply impossible, yes impossible. Despite the team improving AFTER each and every one of those sales, it is clearly damned impossible to get better when you sell your better players!! FACT.
We're as good as down i reckon now we've sold Coady. I mean everything, literally everything thats happened with this club over the past few years points to that.

The one post which seemed to point to the reality was the one by tog yesterday... About wolves triggering a release clause .... A clause which if we hadn't agreed to in the first place we would never have got the player.. So we've had him for a season and made a million... How can it be anything other than happy days for a club selling 6k season Tickets a year ?

Your forgetting Rhodes wanted to leave and said he did not want to play for town again. So please tell me how we could have kept him?

How exactly did you think we got the funding for the current team? We can't keep all our best players AND invest In further quality signings, we are not Man City.
Most people choose to forget the fact that probably all of those players mentioned above wanted to leave to further their careers, why keep them if they don't want to be here?

How do we make progress?
By doing exactly what we've been doing the past few years.. you know.. getting promoted and then finishing higher up each year.

If we keep buying low and selling high and dean uses money to reduce debt that's fine by me

Come on, even on a primal level there's nothing better than making profit on something, especially if that something is replaceable.
Can't understand what all the outcry is about myself.

Clubs with real ambition DO NOT keep selling their better players.
As usual, we are going into yet another Championship season on a "wing and a prayer" and no doubt we'll be flirting with relegation for most of it and hoping like hell that this is not the one, when our luck finally runs out.
Happy Days!

Made progress every season for the last six seasons haven't we? So just do whatever we've been doing would be my suggestion

It's just a shame Coady wasn't perceived as a bit of an arse, like Clayton was. Would have been a completely different reaction to his sale if that had been the case.

Sick to death of this lack of ambition bullshit. We buy other clubs better players, just like other clubs with more money buy ours. We have more ambition than a good 50 clubs in the football league. We don't have a billionaire owner, we don't have parachute payments and we don't have large crowds. We are selling players after paying a few hundred thousand for millions and slowly progressing season by season.
As soon as we sell one, another one comes along. I'd say we are doing pretty well with the resources we have.

How can it be anything other than happy days for a club selling 6k season Tickets a year ? I think we would have flogged anyone in the squad for £2mm - release clause or not. Coady is the only one in the squad who was capable of playing in the Prem - although with Arfield's success (relative) you are never 100% sure.
