January Transfer Window

Austin scored two for S,hampton today, doubt they would let him go.
Long came on as sub and they were quoting some long period (forgot detail) since he last scored.

Just google when he last played us.

[IFWaters]

Austin won't be joining us ....again.

[Des Little]

Sell Lansbury, buy a striker. Bingo

[ciggiesnbeer]

Sell Richards. Not that anyone is buying but please, sell Richards or loan him out or something.

Its not even the money any more, he is like the ghost of christmas past at the club.

[sickbeggar]

Amortisation init. if we sell him for 2m, we'll bankrupt the club. We need more players like Gabby and Richards to see out their contracts, not selling them while they still have some worth.

[ciggiesnbeer]

Is that right? I have no idea how that works. Its like revenue recognition. My eyes glaze over when the CFO starts droning on about it.

[sickbeggar]

yep ask chicago lion. if we sell Lansbury for 2m , we've made a 1m loss. from now on we only sell players for a profit

[ChicagoLion]

There is stupid, and then there is bat shit crazy, I can’t be proved wrong stupid.

[sickbeggar]

you just told me selling hogan for a loss would show a loss on FFP. Is lansbury exempt?

[Matt Collins]

I thought losses under ffp were just a simple net of spent and income? First time I’ve ever heard that we literally have to write down an asset if we sell them for a loss

Or to put it another way, if we need to raise £5m to spend £5m, I didn’t think it made a difference whether we do so from selling Hogan or from selling Green

yep if it isn't we're completely fucked because there's not a player we'd want to sell who we'd get a profit on what we paid.

Hugill at PNE is a very hot property at the moment (he scored the second at VP last season). I am reliably informed he could be attracted by a fee of circa £6M plus Green and Davies as makeweights).

Elphick and Henri and we might be interested!

[Malandro]

Not seen Hugill, but they are not having Brian. Not for sale.
