Seen Callum Marshall’s name on Twitter but it’s giving me Vietnam flashbacks but instead it’s Mipo. Carlos's flashbacks probably feature the pair of them. In fairness, he's looked considerably more lively than Mipo in the couple of games I've seen him playing for NI. His debut culminated in the biggest "Fuck VAR" moment I've personally encountered to date: |

Brilliant post!!! Totally agree Pretty sure wiki is not a recruitment tool thankfully Last post before i go. A STRIKERS JOB IS TO SCORE GOALS. This lad has scored 5 in 42. It doesn’t take a genius to figure out he isn’t very good. If we had Tyreece Simpson starting you’d all flip out. But anyway that makes 2 miserable gits. Chow! I’m sure you meant ‘ciao’ but anyhow….oh, you’ve gone. 🤷🏼♂️ |

Evans wearing the armband starts in an offside position, unless I'm missing somat. Take away the timings and passion involved with a huge extra time goal and its offside innit? |

could it be Josh Coburn at Boro? That would be some signing at this level. No way , would be very pleased if this is true . From what I have seen of him I doubt we would be getting this lad far too good for this level. |

The money that has been spent on the stadium. We still don’t own the ground so it isn’t a football club asset. How does that work for Kevin then ? Somebody with more business acumen than me can probably answer. Not transfer related I know, well other than we have spent money , and we need money spent on the pitch. theyre 2 separate entities Duncan. One governed by FFP or whatever it’s called now, the other a punt by Kevin. He’ll get the stadium eventually, probably soon. He’s recognised it needs repair and investment. He’s just gone early on it. |

It’s like me saying I’ll have that new car and not bother to pay the council tax…. Crap analogy but you get my point. |

Regardless of running costs ? No wonder clubs lose money. It’s like me saying I’ll have that new car and not bother to pay the council tax…. Crap analogy but you get my point. If you listen to the last but one diary, I think, KN answers the question regarding the immediate up front investment. He basically says he is investing now into something that will be of value in the future. It is also important to consider that the stadium is a separate company so choosing to invest in it's maintenance will come from essentially a different pot of cash, although it is all from Mr Nagle's pocket, to that used to run the team. Remember, until Mr Nagle secures the stadium the football club will still be paying into the rental scheme to use it. In that sense FFP has no impact. Moreover in League One if an owner wants to pump money into the team, much like DH did and Birmingham are doing, I understand an owner can do this as long as it doesn't burden the football club with debt. I think there maybe some impact on how finances (losses) are calculated if you are promoted back to the Championship but Ipswich seemed to navigate that. In short Mr Nagle is visibly investing in the stadium. He is also supporting the development of the team, noting the window is around 6 weeks from closing. Those two budgets are separate and I don't think one impacts the other. It's clear Mr Nagle wants the stadium and to improve it overall as it will be a more valuable asset in the future. Additionally it should be a much better place to work, use and visit. I, personally, see that as something wholly positive. The development of the team is obviously more subjective. Many are so desperate, understandably, to see improvement that there is a clamour, and cynicism (NB: this is not directed at you personally), demanding Mr Nagle invests. Last season has left many feeling less than convinced about Mr Nagle's motives and competence. The apparent skittishness, of some, about what Birmingham are doing would bear this out. For me, I am more than happy to let those who are delegated with the task of turning the fortunes on the pitch round to get on with the task in hand. My view is the support from Mr Nagle appears to be there it is down to those responsible to get things right. I don't see investment being an issue, but that doesn't mean that those charged with the task will get it right. Time will tell of course but any failure will surely result in Mr Nagle "kicking ass". Overall there's much to suggest we have turned a corner or are at least in the process of doing so. Hopefully that helps explain the difference between team and stadium investment. Albeit it is only my view of course. I'm sure others will weigh in if they think I have got things wildly wrong. |

Good post.regards Ipswich I believe(I could be wrong and usually am 😀) that a lot of the money put in there was possibly done so through sponsorship so that’s possibly how they avoided any issues with FFP upon promotion to the champ. Also I believe you’re right on the putting money in thing….in champ any money put in has to be in the form of a loan to the club whereas in league 1 an owner can simply “gift” the club money.I believe though like you say that if you are subsequently promoted that it is factored in to FFP once promoted. |

Joe Taylor would seem to make sense.
Looks a similar type of player to Alfie May, but a lot younger.
