I signed him on FIFA, he was much better than yak lol Just looked up his stats, has a decent goal scoring record.

Hafnia! Awesome! Post of the year so far my friend!

I'm not sure you get my point to be honest. The money coming in isn't the issue, it's having to sell in the first place that is the problem. Jack is one of the hottest young talents around, we need to keep him and build around him for the future.

I think I seen figure on here the other day saying our debt published in 2009 was around 38m Bolton have good conference facilities at the reebok, that will help with income. Am I wrong thinking they have a hotel there too?

It's all madness, they have both been stitched up! But grey works for murdoch at sky and tries to sue one of his papers! Idiot!

We didn't play attractive football when irvine was here, but we won more games.

No it would not! We lost Rooney because we were not strong enough to keep him, we can't be going back to that again! But I guess everton are still a selling club

50m could be enough if we were missing payments and didn't have the assets to clear the debts. The only off field assets we have is goodison, which I believe has a few mortgages against, as well as future takings. It prob won't happen but could do if things got worse.

This is Gunna sound stupid to most people, but I think he's been shit since he changed his boots. (once in the summer then again before Xmas) just a thought, but I noticed it quite a while back. And he hits his set pieces differently with his current boots, still badly!

I really hope so mate, I guess youve heard them too? Heard anythin about looking to Hollywood for a bail out?

I've heard the same rumour from three different people in the city today, these fellas don't know each other. I'm not Gunna post it because I'll probably get a shit storm at me if I did, but I'm gearing financial trouble on a much larger scale

BK cant afford to fund anything mate, hes not that rich.

Fair point mike, I'll always respect your opinion mate it's the TT way.

But mike it was written into the exclusivity agreement and published for all to see as part of the documents issued.

Maybe not step down, but instead of looking for investment look for a buyer. He has said time and time again he wants someone to come in and invest. If you had 100m spare would you give it to someone who admits to not being a businessman and leave them to run your business? Or would you want to run it yourself? And the fact that the Kirkby exclusivity agreement stated that no board members were planning to sell up proves he doesn't want to give up his toy even more.

Well said Bill.

I'm complaining that the club is not for sale.

I'm not saying it was because of his size, he might just have not fancied the physical side but then it's not somethin he would have come up against very often. Iniesta has been playing a few years longer he might have just got a bit more used to it. Just guessing though mate.

Teams with money in for him, don't worry lads, we won't see him here, not in a blue shirt anyway.

Over 2m is good business for a player who wants to leave with only six months left on his contract IMO.

I'm with you a little bit mate, in the chaps league he never did much against physical Chelsea but did well against a much less physical arsenal side.

Bad link to me, doesn't work louis.

It's no loss at all, got six months to look at him closely, if we like him then try to bring him in, if not we send him back. I really don't see the issue! And as he is with the academy it will be off their "budget" not the first team.

This. Great post IMO!

If you can't beat 'em, sign 'em.
