Summer transfer window 2023

[Zatara]

We had this debate last week Zat that we didn’t have a single penny to spend this summer, do you see this now?

When you say "we" who do you mean?

Because im happy to cancel a few cheques if you are...

According to his interview he can fund it himself. What he didn’t say was that he’d do it by selling the players and giving the money to the builders.

He can easily fund it himself. He should be doing so...im so confused why he isnt.

I also got jumped on for suggesting he was asset stripping us back in January. We need to chase this cowboy out of the football club. Enough is enough now. He will go down as one of the worst owners in English football history.

Theres no evidence of asset stripping.

It absolutely baffles me how many people are content with the minor board room reshuffle we got and think it will be enough

It was barely even change as far as I'm concerned. The owner and chairman are most responsible for the mess the club is in and both are carrying on as normal.

We need a takeover and it needs to be right now this month. Winning football matches and not getting relegated is far more important than the stadium.

We currently have a squad which i absolutely do not believe will survive. We have 5 weeks to fix that but I'm not at all optimistic either.

who has said theyre content with the board?

Yeah he just forgot to mention the bit about having no access to money in the UK at the moment.

That wouldnt make sense...hed have relationships which would enable him to leverage off his offshore capital.

That squad that has travelled to Switzerland will probably lose about 3-0 on Friday.

It looks pretty terrible on paper.

We need at least 2 forwards to have a good chance this year. The signs so far are not good and I will be judging the recruitment a few days before game 1. I do not accept this nonsense about waiting to the end of the window. The season starts on August the 12th and normal organised football clubs prepare for game 1 not game 5.

You could be right. Asset stripping would be his best bet of minimizing his losses at this stage.

Selling players to pay for the stadium is asset stripping Zat.

 

[ToffeeTim]

He can’t spend what he doesn’t have Zat.
His main priority is finishing the stadium, and it looks like he doesn’t have the means to even do that alone.

Then he should sell the club and step aside.

“He” hasn’t spent a penny on us, I think that’s pretty evident at this point.

 

[DanB90]

Agreed.

 

[Tony’s Carp]

Then he should sell the club and step aside.

Given the treasury investigations and possible closure of Moshiri’s bank accounts I’m not sure it’s even possible to buy / sell the club at the moment. I’m certainly not sure it would be advisable to conduct a large transaction with Moshiri given the cloud he’s under.

MSP are investing in the club but notably are not purchasing any shares from Moshiri.

All the links to left backs and no myko in that squad . Is he been punted?

It seems we do this every year and, apart from January, we always do sign players for money. I am confident there will be signings this summer for actual money.

Cant see anyone giving what we would want for him tbh

 

[W84 Dum Freeze]

Day 26 of 79 of the transfer window,
the first pre-season squad is announced.

Time to learn from past mistakes,

the longer it's left
the worse it gets.

A stitch in time
Someone who's a good number 9
there are plenty out there.

Get to it

 

[Streetender1878]

Cant he open an Isa?

 

[Zatara]

Selling players to pay for the stadium is asset stripping Zat.

Read that back. Then have a think how selling assets in one area of the business to invest into another area of the business...is asset stripping.

Quite simply, it isnt.

Its very peculiar. The blurb said players not on international duty, injured or Holgate whose available for sale were all available.

It seems we do this every year and, apart from January, we always do sign players for money. I am confident there will be signings this summer for actual money.

Indeed Though its a little strange, anyone weve sold theres a reason for doing so.

When was the last time we had some triallists on a pre-season tour? We can't be far off seeing Patrizio Pascucci and Delron Buckley tearing it up against some Swiss amateurs.
