Summer Transfer Window (Stephen Glass’ first)

[RED_JOHN]

We have also just lost £10 million in the pandemic. I fear this is more likely the type of players we will be signing this summer.

We haven’t lost £10m...that’s a myth. Our money men have put in finances, we have sold players so things aren’t that bad.

It takes time to build a team , no matter how much money you have to play with. Look at " Pep" at Man City. Only just , finally , got them into the Chumps league final. And they`ve spent mental amounts.

Players will come and go , before Glass ( may ) get the right mix for his system.

It`s not going to happen all at once. And if I was an " astute " multi millionaire business man who had bought his hometown team , for the fun of it. I wouldn`t just throw money at it until I could see that there was potential progress ?

So, right enough , Cormack said we should be aimimng to win everything we enter. But that`s an attitude to approach things with. Not a commitment to win everything tomorrow !!


AND, mind that this season is still not over. There will be a lot more "stuff" to come .?

Its not a myth, we may not be £10M in debt, but this is lost revenue that could have been utilised elsewhere
Having no fans, no corporate opportunities severely impacted our revenue

Yes, COVID 19 has resulted in a significant “opportunity cost” for many businesses and a significant opportunity too for others, eg, PPE suppliers, workers of furlough etc!

My god, I was getting used to no one towing the company line.

I don’t suppose you’re going to start a “reinstate McIness” campaign.

We have at the end of the day stayed debt free. I am sure Cormack said this himself. The board of multi millionaires and our billionaire shareholders have done a great job in looking after our finances.
