2024/25 Sean Dyche - Sacked

No if you read back, I mentioned Brighton are the absolute pinnacle, pin-up for that time of model.

Wolves/Leicester/Southampton show the difficulties with that model.

There’s plenty more sides above us with a positive net spend than a negative net spend, that’s a simple fact.

I would absolutely love us to be a Brighton type model, our recruitment is my biggest gripe with the Moshiri years. Had a real chance to establish ourselves and safeguard the club for years to come with the amount spent. Sadly 95% of it was on absolute [Poor language removed].
Ok mate, well I just going off the statement where you said Brighton had spent loads Brightons model is how you get out of trouble; i agree, it’s how we should be run

The problem were going to have for years is the squad is so light, and we don't have a lot of sellable players.

So we need numbers, and quality. And we've only really got Branthwaite and Pickford to sell.

We can blame the next manager for that though, can't we?

I suppose it depends where you shop. Whether that’s Thelwell, the Owners or managers m, but when you bid £30m for a player who less than year prior was bought for £8m, then something ain’t right. Especially when it happens constantly

The world is full of quality footballers, the plans should be in place if Thelwell has anything about him

Indeed.

But being desperate, and having £0 upfront in any walk of life isn't conducive.
 

Far too much read into that.

You pay £5m for a player compared to £30m, up front payments become nonexistent. Especially if your reaching far and wide

We're not even paying 5m up front though...

The club is broken. It was last year. It was the year prior. It was the year prior to that, and so on and so on...
