@HayensHairline @BFCTurf What would you prefer?
Once promoted, don’t bother trying to spend money to get better players?
If we do that but still get relegated, would you prefer us to go bust?
We are a small town club trying to operate in the big boys league.
It is what it is.

@SimplyOlar @David_Ornstein @TheAthleticFC Don’t know. But Burnley had him under contract and they wanted the most they could get.

@Iam_Jemo @David_Ornstein @TheAthleticFC Google it,

@SimplyOlar @David_Ornstein @TheAthleticFC City triggered buy back clause, Newcastle wouldn’t nudge up beyond it.

[FGB @fbradshaw61]

@leonknowles @djaidyj @Tomlawton17 He will be on a big wedge as well so saves costs of course. If he does ok and gets some minutes on the pitch, we will benefit either from him playing for us or via transfer fee to someone else.

@julesbfc69 @Champchatpod24 @aClaret1954 Why?

[FGB @fbradshaw61]

@HayensHairline It’s still summer

[FGB @fbradshaw61]

@HayensHairline @JonIn6OSeconds We are in more or less the same position as two years ago albeit then big sales were actually after the season opener.
What exactly do you expect? We had to gear up for prem (albeit recruitment not great) and we have to de-gear given income reduction in Champ.

[FGB @fbradshaw61]

@iain_monty @MilltownClarets Is it?
Genuine question, because I don’t know where to find the answer-are we more in debt now than two years ago?

[FGB @fbradshaw61]

@StevieJ64099245 @ritchCFC We saw him earlier in the tournament shouting at the players to change what they were doing where needed. What we didn’t see was a demand from him to move up the pitch in this game for reasons only he will truly know. He failed badly end of.

[FGB @fbradshaw61]

@TurfCastPodcast Why so negative all the time? Young lad thrust into top league couple of years too soon.
We’ve made a big profit on him.
He will be better in the future- no doubt.

[FGB @fbradshaw61]

@willyd145 @jackbell94 I don’t, just an opinion.
£150m of debt has to be reduced as servicing it is unsustainable against massive income reduction.
squad numbers were big and wage bill needs to be slashed-we will sign players undoubtedly but the outlay will be small in comparison to monies coming in

[FGB @fbradshaw61]

@willyd145 @jackbell94 We won’t be investing the vast majority in the squad. Debt reduction is key I reckon for the ALK investors

[FGB @fbradshaw61]

@MCulshaw84 @TurfCastPodcast @FabrizioRomano I don’t agree. Young lad who with a season in the champ would have enhanced his value significantly. We obviously need the money to help us to stabilise but he will be one I think we will miss

[FGB @fbradshaw61]

@Nick_Metcalfe He was no Graham Alexander

[FGB @fbradshaw61]

@sgevans Fabrizio said £17m plus add ones

[FGB @fbradshaw61]

@SDP76842783 @SkySportsPL Had a load of personal problems to deal with then

[FGB @fbradshaw61]

@liam_W1977 @TurfCastPodcast @FabrizioRomano Was our best player late on but absolutely terrible for 3 months of the season
