Over 700k a week plus other revenue from this season.
What a bunch of robbing gits, wont be long before it goes national to our greedy barsteward owners and the sell outs.
They will be pushed against the wall in no time, results keep going this way and the eyes will be firmly on them. |  |

£38 million profit ?
Are you on drugs ? |
That's the profit we made on transfers according to the Sky commentators last night.
What they didn't mention was the 50 million drop in revenue |  |

Daps, you haven’t got a clue. Neither have Sky when they dress comments up in the way that they did.
Go and do some research on formalising a business plan. |  |

3 sensible posts in a row on planetswans (4 now) must be some sort of a record. You guys should post more.
If you get demoted in work and can no longer afford your Mercedes and lavish rent so you sell the car with the view to buy a cheaper sustainable model with the rest going to your other expenses - that doesn’t mean what you get from the car is expendable profit, it is earmarked to survive. |  |

Flaps.
Don't you understand you're talking absolute nonsense? You don't understand things so it's best not to speak, certainly not make thread after thread illustrating how little you understand things.
You're not very bright are you but stop and think for one minute, try doing some research. Speak to anyone who can get some crayons and an abacus out for you.
Anything mate, other than these humiliating posts. |  |

I’m sorry to hear that happened to you. Nice of you to use your own painful experiences and personal failings to emphasise your weak analogy though. | | | |

For me, it's not about the cost-cutting itself (which was obviously going to be needed), more the seemingly desperate and haphazard way in which it was done. The prime example was bidding £6m for Woods when, if Dineen is to be believed, we couldn't actually afford to pay that amount, never mind the extra £Â½m.
Whether because we weren't able to sell the likes of Ayew(s) or to get the money we expected for the likes of Mawson and Clucas, I'm not sure but the last 6 weeks or so haven't really given the appearance of a Club that really knows where it's going. |  | | |

Not really haphazard.
The deal depended on sales. As you know the sales went down to the wire due to a last minute hitch, as a result we got millions less.
Are you seriously suggesting we should have only started negotiating once everyone was sold?
Come on Matt. | |

What last minute hitch? Perhaps I'm not as ITK as some.
I understand the process of negotiation but surely you can see something of a flaw in offering a sum that you can't actually afford to pay. | | | |

Yes. We went from getting £8m for Clucas to £6m and also failed to get a fee for Jordan Ayew.
You have no idea how the negotiations went, I very much would think it was a deal in principle based upon getting those funds.
Any other way to approach it would be ludicrous surely? | |

Why would anyone stay where you have been demoted ? On the thread topic - Daps should stick to false transfer rumours. | | | |

Who knows - you may be right but my point is how it appears from the outside.
Assuming the press coverage was accurate (and nobody has denied it) then we actually bid £6m. What if Brentford had accepted that rather than asking for another £Â½m when, according to Dineen, we couldn't even afford the initial sum? Would we have backed out or gone through with it and put ourselves in a worse financial position?
As long as it doesn't affect what Potter is trying to do, I have no issue with us not buying Woods or even not bringing in any loans. I'm just saying that, from my perspective and taken as a whole, the transfer window looked rather disjointed. | | | |

If the Woods deal was entirely reliant on funds from out-goings it was at best naive not to have other options lined up.
Even a stop gap until January would have been an improvement. |  | | |

Other options and stop gaps cost money, money we don’t have to waste on such short term options. | |

Ye but if you had 7 mercs and bought them for 1 million each but sold them when you got demoted for7 million 20 million for another and so on you would have made a decent profit plus you had 3 years of redunduntcies of 100 million I think you could afford to treat yourself on a few treats like a Ryan woods | | | |

Of course it was disjointed. We had to shift 20 players, if anyone thinks that’s easy they are mental.
Bidding £6m for a target is absolutely the correct thing to do. I can’t believe anybody would think we would not have agreed a fee prior to selling after they now understand we needed to sell first. We would have had what, an hour to get the deal done.
Football transfers are complex, a bit like buying a house. Sometimes bids are made, offers accepted and they fall through due to the chain not coming to fruition with regards to the sale of their own house going through - in fact it’s exactly that.
I would be far more concerned if they approached it like you are suggesting they should have. That would scream incompetence surely? I am also sure you would be criticising them not having that iron in the fire should that ever have been the case. | |
