    It’s not bollocks. You’re delusional. Take your rose-tinted glasses off. Maybe you and YOUR mates could see Oli was destined for greatness. There were probably other visionary supporters like you out there. Yeah, we knew he was a Youth International for Scotland and did well in a Tourney with Man Utd. Which made it all the more disappointing when you watched him play and he didn’t look up to much. He was ineffective and ZERO goals. If he’d dropped into the Conference instead of getting picked up by Swansea I doubt much folk would’ve batted an eyelid.

    You're correct on Delph and Cleverley but a little out on Wisdom. His sell-on from Liverpool was regarded as the best the club ever negotiated, that is according to DB, at 25% of the profit! That really was a good deal.

    Omari Patrick is 23, he's not exactly young. In a few months he won't be eligible for anything other than first team football, as he'll be of senior age.

    I watched him numerous times. He was very lightweight but as the song said he got knocked down and got up again!!! Heart of a lion. Would never have called 20 million yikes. I hope we have a sell on for kenworthy Sykes and Coalville if he goes lol Joke joke

    I’m not certain it will, but hopefully this allows Bowyer to bring one or two more in even if we can’t get rid of anyone.

    Suppose we’ll soon find out.

    Has to give us the option at least. Not just in terms of budget but also revenue increase giving us more headroom within FFP

    Yorkshire Post bloke said on Twitter the 2.5m will be spread over 12 monthly installs to us. Expected to cover the 2m debt from last season and go towards this seasons forecasted debt too given the big contracts signed last summer.

    So no transfers.

    So back to Mr Rupp's then in other words.

    See don't know why fans get excited about things like this. We have no assets now so let do hope we get promoted this season.

    Always a buyer in football

    Ironic that a lad Rupp has never met has bailed him out.

    Wouldn't go as far to say he has bailed him out but if Mr Rupp is now looking to sell up then this is a perfect time.

    A mere word, some of our better times were had when the "sword of Damocles" or known to us as the "'deficit' was hanging over our club.

    So now Rupp gets his money back does this mean he's yet another owner who doesn't back us?
