Jamboscanbevicius Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 If sale of Cummings is the difference then let's not panic... Paterson (done), Walker, Nicholson, Djoum and we could top ?1.4m in fees this summer yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamboscanbevicius Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Well this is a bit ironic....

Have we got any assurances that any monies realised from the sale of players will be re~invested in the playing side of things? Or will it be invested in the new stand which is already over budget.

The US clubs seem to have just taken a unilateral decision not to pay the fees. Pretty sure someone is fighting that stance. Will have a look. Sure i read something the other day.

Pasquale for King Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Partly that but also due to the money they will receive from the sale of Cummings.Will Sir Tom not want a cut of that, they're still due him ?5m. Hibs have a long way to go to have a bigger budget than us I'm afraid, even with Levein refusing to pay anyone more than he gets. Their turnover was ?3 less than ours in their best season in years. Crowds last season were up from 2016 but not that much to overtake us.http://www.hibernianfc.co.uk/news/6904 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin Jambo Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Looks like our competitors are going for proven players while we scrape around with young loanees and unknown foreigners will we never learn. If we are getting beaten to signings by hibs it really is depressing and the fans are being taken for mugs yet again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambmoz Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Surely it's not surprising that the stand project is having an effect on the budget. To complete it debt free is a fair old challenge so it has to come from somewhere. But even without it I doubt we would be lashing out 5k a week for anyone!!

kingantti1874 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Putting names aside the Cathro out megathread assured us we would be signing an entire new team capable of playing the way he wants.. As it stands Cathro will be manging largely the same team he managed to fail spectacularly with last season without probably Walker and Nicholson. Unless we do sign good players of standing we will be in the shit next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
