    Agree. Always looked like a goal in him when he’s played.

    I wonder if GA gets pi55ed off if he is not getting new players in that he’s asked for/targetted. May decide to do a Parky if think he’s taken us as far as he can with the budget constraints ?

    Yes I have only accounted for probable increased revenue up to the last home game , I can’t really account for potential future extras that might not materialise
    I don’t know the state of the clubs finance, it just feels to me that we should have money in the bank, but transfer dealings so far seem to point differently
    Who knows except the club management

    I quite often disagree with some of GA’s decisions
    But if that turns out to be the case, then shame on the club
    He has taken us further than many a manager in recent times

    Also the doggies assigned Ledson, one of the better midfielders in the league (by reputation at least) to clatter him every time he got the ball.

    Then they can be collectively responsible for the slump we are in and will not get ourselves out of.

    Been clear for months, so would be surprising if all the "professionals " ignored what us mere "amateurs" have been observing.

    You are having a huge laugh if you think GA woild turn down signings. In fact we risk losing him and Chris due to our other professionals being yes men to Rupp and his empty spiel.

    So don't answer the question, keep on repeating the same old story. Can you point out where I said anything about GA in particular turning down signings?

    I know he can be stuborn but you ever think that him continuing to plays humps up front is a challenge to the board to give him the funds to bring in a decent striker ???????
    We will see in time though but got a feeling we are heading down a path thats not gonna end up going well

    He’s never managed fully, above L2 his entire career . I don’t count the kilt league so why would he think he could take a club with limited funds to the lofty heights of the CC ? . If he takes the attitude you claim , so long GA . He knew what he was getting into , certainly not an oil rich or US money laundering or real estate speculative outfit . I don’t buy your speculation for a minute sorry .

    Sky said earlier this afternoon that Luton have officially approach Vale for Devante Cole. Might be an agent thing lumbering other clubs in there to try get Luton to Jack up their offer?

    I.would imagine all those clubs,with the possible exception of Wycombe,would be able to offer far more,in transfer fees and wages,than City would.

    Luton confirmed to be in talks with Cole by Sky Sports. How many strikers do they need?!

    If he has, I don't think anyone's told GA from what he said in his post match interview on Saturday.
