Truth finally emerging 06:36 - Feb 1 with 5991 views | TailGunner | I got destroyed on here October / November for posting what was happening contract wise. I was 'negative, clueless, wearying'.. The info was coming from inside the club, from people who care. The yanks wanted Roberts, Rodon out in January, and Jenkins was fighting to get them contracts. Ignore the smokescreens today from Leeds, Villa and Pearlman. Jenkins halted the James and Fer deals. The yanks wanted us to lose Fer, Carrol, Montero, James yesterday. For all his faults, if he was not there now Rodon & Roberts would be gone as well as the above. We are stuffed with these in charge. Whatever your reservations are in the trust, we all need to join asap. Unity in numbers is needed. | | | | |

Truth finally emerging on 07:10 - Feb 1 with 4683 views | magicdaps10 | The way I see it, if Jenkins stopped the deal then it indicates we were not financially forced to sell them. The old board sold the club to them, the old board are the source of the problem. The old board guys now have to put pressure on the yanks to sell the club. It is one big mess. | |

Not financially forced? Do you think James coming back will help SCFC off the field? Do you think the world of football finance there's a never ending pot of money? Serious questions? | |

Player attracted interest from another club. Players agent sees a profit. Player wants to move home. Club sees it as a likely move and tries to get the best deal for the club. Other club pi$$es about. We slam the door. Agent loses money. Agent moans. | |

If we win our next two cup matches (one of which might be against Barnet) we would bank £720k in prize money. That seems a more positive way to raise money?? | | | |

Dan wanted to say, you were correct in saying it last week. The Americans refused to offer any sort of better deal to him. Not interested in entering any dialogue - They solely wanted to cash in . Seems Jenkins also played a blinder, when Leeds tried it on for wriggle room, he pulled the plug. | | | |

Dan asked to leave after it looked like he wasn't going to be sold. Club pointed out he has 18 months on his contract and has only just started playing first team football. Agent wanted to cash in. Club, like, almost all, wanted to get the most fora player they had nurtured and brought to his current standard. Jenkins may have played a blinder but it could also be Leeds thinking they could treat us like dirt and eventually their Rsing about led to them failing to complete a simple deal form on time. Whatever - if a player has decided to go I expect the club to get the best financial deal for the club whether that is to reduce debt, pay wages, was the kit of preferably to bring in new players. | |

Believe what you want. Take with as much salt as you like. Exactly the same was happening with Roberts and Rodon. Jenkins stepped in then too. | | | |

That's great but in the grand scheme of things it's peanuts. You're talking about 2 or 3 months of just one players wages. | |

Agreed. But there's a good reason for why they didn't as well. | |

We don't have a single player who earns 700k in 2 or 3 months. Try again | | | |

They would have to be on around 53k a week. Bony was on 80k a week and we only got him out with two hours to go. Plus, we'll have a few others who wouldn't be far away from that. Try again. | |

Does he, because he's an SCFC player if you want to check out his registration and he was very much an SCFC player when the difficult decisions were being made right up until late yesterday evening. What a mare | |

I was making a direct comparison with the upfront payment from Leeds as agreed by our owners, whilst retaining our asset. | | | |

Wrong, he is not available for selection by us and is an Al-Arabi player. No-one has complained about moving Bony on, they understand his salary is too large for this league. So I think we can all agree that the chap who said it's better to raise money by winning matches rather than selling our best players, is absolutely spot on. | | | |
