Why has nobody asked this question before on datm? What this site has been missing is pertinent questions like this. We need loads of posts on the transfer rumours thread about finances now please. Not really interested in news of who we king buy and sell. Anyone hot a copy of the Accounts? why should the club go in to every detail because whatever they say they will not be believed by some. He's taking the piss, Positive 😉

A lot of people, myself included, became naive and were happy to believe everything we were told by the club.

Why? Have you fallen in to the trap of thinking that we will receive £8 million and have to give that straight to Monaco thus leaving us with nothing? That may well be the case but in such a scenario, where has the original 'Premier League' money gone if the deal was structured in such a way. Phil said last summer that it was all spent, referring to £100 million spent on players in our two seasons up there. In reality, all those deals were structured to be paid over the length of the contract so most of the money should still have been sat in the bank waiting to be dipped in to. If that isn't the case, where the hell has it disappeared to? The £8 million we receive should be going straight back in to the club. Whether they decide to use it to sign players is another thing Why has nobody asked this question before on datm? What this site has been missing is pertinent questions like this. We need loads of posts on the transfer rumours thread about finances now please. Not really interested in news of who we king buy and sell. Anyone hot a copy of the Accounts? I was originally in favour of a separate transfers board, with individual threads. I’m now thinking that we may as well just have one thread for the entire site called finance

I think you should show him your disappointment by hitting him hard with a major, and I mean major leaflet campaign A whist drive, maybe a carboot sale? If that's not enough then I'm sorry, it's time for the T Shirts. aagh not the T shirts that spell c l I t o r I s !!!!!

Interesting. Given he is training now, perhaps they are more confident that he'd pass a medical?
I think I'd prefer we sold him, got the wages off the books. Given our depth in D, while there is a gem of a player there, it's been far too long (it feels) since we last saw it.
In an ideal world, we'd sell Kongolo AND Grant, and bring in a new winger and a striker.

I expect both Grant and Kongolo to leave on Friday. Whether we bring in replacements is another matter. Certainly wont be quality replacements just cheap ones that no one else wants. Despite the club saying we are financially stable I get the impression we are totally skint (how I dont know ). Sad really, but Kongolo obviously has talent but a bad attitude it would appear. It's obvious he doesn't want to be at Town

Not sure the price we get will have any positive effects in terms of funds to buy new players with.... might just be a case of how much negative effect we are still left with.
Thats if we still owe ( Monaco ? ) the kind of figures mentioned for him.
If the £8m figure has any truth to it, we could sell for £3m , give it all to monaco and still owe £5m for him!!

It will be ‘undisclosed’ and Town will make it out to be a great deal for us. Heaven knows what the true figure will be...

Yes there's not been many signings but the ones we've made all look like good ones so far.

£3 million ? I presume the Examiner has got that wrong - £3million would only just pay his wages for a year.

3 Million? His earphones cost more than that.
He seems to be a bad apple...best rid of and hope he rots elsewhere.

A big sell on clause would be a good idea. I could easily see someone paying 20 million for him after a year played in the right position.

The consensus was he was a great player and would be a great signing we'd probably make a profit on in a year or two.

Kongolo is good but he’s no Tommy Smith. The fee will reflect that.

That is a general statement/comment - look back over the years if you disagree, you seem very defensive. Did you miss Maynard's post on the fee last week ?
