@AddedSix@suttonunited When the Missus and I were there 18 months ago it was wet and miserable. Mad how different the climates are either side of the mountains over there.
I’ve wired some power to light up the players tunnel @suttonunited this week. It’s only in darkness that it shows how amazingly well it lights up the artwork that had been done previously.
@suttonunited When does it get better? It’s not the managers fault, the players aren’t good enough, the style, the system, everything in between is broken.
What happened 2-3 years ago to begin this spiral into -i’d like to say mediocrity but it’s not that good- the oblivion.
@JamesMclou45430@sid_lambert Van basten fee was reportedly around 1.5 million from what I’ve read. I’ve just gone down a rabbit hole looking at transfer fees in the 1950’s!
@JamesMclou45430@sid_lambert I had to look as was convinced van basten and gullit hadn’t been a record fee and seems the correct answer is 2.
Turns out gullit had been, moving to Milan from psv for 6 million. I was only 11 in 87 so that one must’ve passed me by.
@suttonunited Guess it was inevitable as results didn’t appear to be improving sadly. A shame but that’s football.
Talk of hinshelwood is laughable,doubt our budget is big enough and unlikely we could afford him. We’ve never appointed a high profile manager, can’t see we can afford to now.
