    If you are right Sinkov and Pace is buying with only making money in mind imo BFC are finished as a top team and would they be a club worthy of support. Somehow supporters get attached to players but not if they are only around for a season two.

    I get the idea that it could appear like that lbut if we’re honest football has always been like that- with the exception of the super clubs now City - Chelsea etc.

    As if to prove a point it hasn’t / isn’t working anyway we are bottom of the league with issues I suppose you could argue it working if we sold a lot players for big money in January or the end of the season - but who ? I wait with baited breath koleosho cost £3 million and could go for £20/25 after that I’m struggling I like Amdouni but we payed £18 million - maybe Beyer for £20/ £25 million
    Odeber - maybe also decent money

    Benson - no
    Zaroury -no
    Tresor - no
    O’Shea - no
    Cullen - no

    The plan if that’s what it is / was is t working

    We just bought the wrong mix to compete - someone got it wrong as Sinkov. Says I’m guessing it’s Pace and his AI system as he’s said didely squat and VK seems un phased at the minute - maybe it’s because VK didn’t buy the players who knows - but not being competitive at this level didn’t put value on our youngsters ( not playing them did t either) if that was the plan.

    I said the same thing a year or so back Tap, our fans were lapping up the success, Vinni and Alan were heroes, which was fine, but how do the fans react if at the end of every season we sell on our best couple of players ? Vinni has mentioned Brighton and suggested we could emulate them, but there is one big difference, Brighton established themselves in the PL first, we haven't, we seem to have made little attempt to consolidate, looking at last summer's window it's as though we just assumed we were going to stay up, or even more bizarre, just didn't care whether we did or not.

    It's a cut-throat business is football at this level, you have to know what you're doing, Mr Pace is soon going to be an owner with two relegations on his CV, which could suggest he doesn't really know what he's doing, or if he has a plan, as army says, it isn't working.
