These fücking idiots aren't going to pay for any player regardless of what they say. A free here and their and a loan at best, fück me anyone could run a business like that with no investment. No better than silver twãtting shield or Petty. |  |

This is the situation as I see it.
We were relegated with massive financial obligations that we had nothing like enough income to cover, hence us desperately trying to sell/loan out anything that still earned a Premier League wage. We managed to get shot of some, but not as many as we would have liked. However, some space was found to add players like Celina to the mix.
One year on we still have four or five players on the books that earn far too much, hence the struggle to try and move them on again in order to avoid a loss. The sale of Dan James and departure of players like Fer and Olson have again given us enough income so that we aren't desperate to sell, but the reduced parachute payments this year have put a bit of a pause on spending until we can move on the likes of the Ayews, Baston etc.
If we can reduce our future financial commitments to to manageable proportions this window then I wouldn't be surprised to see us pay a few fees. If we're still facing the prospect of another year paying some or all of the salaries of the Ayews, Baston etc we probably won't. Birch has to work on the assumption that we're going to end up paying these players. It would be foolish not to.
People can grumble about remaining competitive, but my main concern is remaining solvent. Plenty of teams have dropped out of the PL and ended up right in the shit financially. If a couple of fallow years are needed to get everything back on an even keel then I've got no problem with it. |
Sorry. Far too sensible. |  | | |

No problem with all that. What I do have a problem with is their obvious lack of communication with the Trust. Why? |
Number of reasons I reckon. Stupidity is probably the main one. I may be wrong, but I'm also vaguely aware of a tendency in American corporate culture for minority investors to get a bit sidelined, especially if they're not happy with the way things are going. Witness Kroenke largely ignoring Usmanov at Arsenal for another example. |  |

Anyone who thinks this bloody lot are here for our benefit and the wellbeing of OUR club need certifying .

So basically you want us to become a subsidised toy. Subject to the whims of whatever megalomaniac is in charge. No thanks.
I doubt anyone thinks they're here for our benefit. It is however an undeniable fact that whatever is good for SCFC is good for them, and it is in their interests to ensure that we remain a financially stable going concern, ideally returning to the PL at some point. | |

I have this awful feeling that A Ayew, Baston and Monterro will be on our books for the coming season. So it would be a financial disaster to be looking to sign anything other than cheap loanees. |  | | |

Yeah sure, always good to have a crock who plays 20 mins every 10 games, a player who doesn't want to be anywhere near these shores and an out an out mercenary in your squad on a combined wage approaching £150k a week, it helps no end to build confidence in a squad.  | | | |

You got any bright ideas of how to offload them then?
You fail to mention that they are actually talented players and should be very effective in this division. | |
