Were you there today? Should we be grateful just to have been on the same pitch as Cambridge United? You along with JAQ are complicit by allowing Mladen to run this club into such a **** state. But hang on, you thinks he's doing a good job. I sat in the stands today and the rot has set in, fans don't care, there's utter dismay at the current state of things on and off the pitch. My boys sat there bored shitless and wanted to leave after 30 minutes. However, you're telling us we have a top 3-4 squad. Hope you're looking for a buyer and preparing to move on, it's what this club desperately needs to progress.
Reason for the loss is down to big contracts for under average players. There's a lot of dead wild that needs outing. Also paying up contracts to managers.
Not sure what that’s got to do with your question TBH. It’s well documented virtually all football clubs lose money yet clubs are always being bought.
Yeah and aren't we all lucky ehh lol. Because next week, the minimum wage is going up a whopping 77p... to £12.21 an hour!.
How did Patrick Cryne get more right than wrong and keep us relatively sustainable, delivering championship football for all bar a few seasons? he wasn't flawless, we had to sell players, he had to plug the gaps but nowhere near the level now. He cared.
Exactly people forget this and not only are these clowns not football people they aren’t great business people.
To whom should he have sold up? Nobody wanted to buy the club. He was a true fan from boyhood onwards and at the point that his terminal illness forced him finally to sell, the club was in a far better position than it is now.
No it wasn't. Barring relegation under Dennis to League 1 with a squad that under achieved in 2001/2. We went from a top six Championship Club to also rans and cannon fodder under Cryne.
Yes, there was no-one to buy the club until circumstances dictated he needed to sell and all of a sudden there was a viable buyer. What a fortunate turn of events.
Conveniently overlooking the fact that we went into administration, were subject to Peter Doyle's attempts to asset strip us as our supposed 'saviour' and aren't even the same legal entity as we were prior to administration. By any standards, this is a ludicrous comparison to make.
We had a bigger wage bill in 2015/16 season than we do now, yet PC wasn't underwriting 8m loses year in year out. We averaged 9499 in 15/16 season. It's all relative mate but highlights how extremely poor we are being run.
I would wager that we're in a far worse position now than at any time under Cryne. We're losing circa 750k a month, we've a playing squad that is essentially dreadful, we've a ground that's dated and tired, we've a horrible scattergun transfer approach and we're currently managerless.
