    The plan has been put in place to mask a budget and salary cap which does not allow the Club to sign championship or league one players of any quality but simply limits the financial risk to the owner.
    We have a plan that actually prevents us from signing strikers and midfielders of any quality or maturity
    and still expect Hecky to work miracles.
    Let's hope the new Board can see through this fantasy!

    It masks nothing, unless you are simple of course. The plan recruits players who are better then the standard they are currently at who can also progress further.

    We have a plan that also makes best use of the limited finances we have. There’s no doubt we need a bit of experience to help the team, I’m sure Hecky knows that too

    The plan is what just made us a viable proposition for one of the richest consortiums in english football.

    The balance sheet showed in excess of £20M from transfers at the year end but we could not compete with Blackburn and Wigan during the summer.
    Non of the LeagueTwo players we signed in the summer will become Championship players.

    Come on Conan, it's Christmas. Cryne has gone now, you should be happy. Time to look forwards. Let's talk death metal instead. Good times.

    The whole future of the club was potentially changed this week. We can now contemplate a future which previously was the stuff of dreams. Yet, predictably, because we've lost a game toys are being flung out of prams.

    Wilson worked under the plan the spradsheet found Conor and scowern. Lee Jay same and alot of key players were signed under him too using the "plan" exept hammill who was patricks idea i heard. Without the plan I doubt we would be in the championship punching above our weight.

    Nope Conor was brought to the club's attention by the spreadsheet. The story came out when he left. Davies is true.

    A point missed by a lot on here. Easier to have a toddler style meltdown when we lose.

    Same ones who said we’d be down with trimmings. Or be this seasons rotherham. Now, despite not being in relegation zone, this first half season has been an unmitigated disaster. Something doesn’t add up.

    We’re on a mighty crap run right now. Hopefully it turns around in next few games. Bit bonkers when you think it was only 2 years ago we were bottom of L1. Mad when you think about it. We’ve come a long way in 2 years. Still not enough for some. Funny old world.

    I actually look forward to watching the little flowers hissy fits first few wobbles we have in the new owners tenure.
