Press Conference?

[Mark-Valiant]

At this moment in time i'm just glad we're in L1 & not L2. As long as we're competitive & not battling relegation throughout the season then i'm okay whatever the budget is. Consolidation was all i expected from next season anyway & even if we do have the 6th lowest budget in the league, it doesn't necessarily mean we'll finish 6th bottom. It's up to Adams to use the budget wisely (maybe use the loan market) & add a few quality players to an already pretty decent squad. Mid-table would be a decent first season back in L1 for me & can't wait already for the season to begin. UTV.

I really do hope we are not going down a similar road to V2001.....

 

So do I, but I see no evidence that this is going to be the case.

So it seems like the Wildes departure proved to be more negatively significant than we gave it credit for. So it may be that the budget HAS been affected with Wildes going as he may pull out of certain projected spomsorship deals through his contacts- which from what we have heard, are quite extensive in comparison to Smurthwaite.

1 difference, Mold didn't have a pot to **** in between them all.. Smurf is a successful business man that is a multi millionaire...

Take it you weren't there last night then or are you trying to promote business for the Samaritans ??? !!!!

 

For goodness sake stop making things up that you know nothing about , some on here hang on to every word said and even if it's positive they can turn it negative , don't give them chance .

 

Ever thought for one minute that our owner and his staff can also play mind games with players agents and the like ?

 

Just a thought ;)

[tisdeano]

our budget since November 2012 will be increasing from 1.1m to just over 2 million, add to this the addition of scouts, fitness coaches, development squad etc etc, I fail to see how anyone can turn anything into a negative [ those with a sane mind I mean]

[bookworm]

I presume that refers to his second spell at Vale? ;)

 

ROB! behave yourself.:D

hey deano wanna bet,

[bookworm]

I thought we were going to have a budget that can compete? 6th lowest in the league? Dosent sound too promising to me b

 

an old saying you cut your garment according to your cloth

[JOHNNYAITCH]

I'd settle for 6th bottom..will represent massive progress over two seasons

[Valiant in Brum]

6th lowest budget in the league. Think a lot of people have been getting carried away!

 

People were not getting carried away Paul Wildes did. Promising a budget to compete!!

[bookworm]

Swindon won't be budgeting for £4m much longer, they'll be going into admin shortly

 

that wouldn't suprise me once the new owners have taken their incidental expenses out.

[mbycars]

Whilst the panic sets in one of the three promoted League One sides heading to Forest, Leeds etc next season had a budget less than our League Two budget and around half what ours is expected to be next season... Little old Yeovil did it so it means little. (Although I think as said before our budget is about the average in the division).

 

Ahh but Yeovil had all that Blue Sky money as well ;)

That's what I am thinking Its not the smurfs fault wildes was the one with the headlines about a budget to compete etd. Ahhh well a relegation battle looms I reckon and lower crowds.

[the old bycars tea bar]

yes but rooneys available bale maybe unsettleted ant, i'm sure we should be looking at this type of player now we are minted like :rolleyes:
