The extra income this club has made recently and it would appear that the better players are again told take our derisory offer or push off. A bit more ambition and a few quid extra and Constantine would probably have stayed [ different class to Wayne Gray]. Ron Martin don"t mind us having to fork out 3 times for Cardiff but when it comes to him pushing the boat out there are a few stumbling blocks. As with Connie if he lets Dudders[ whom should appreciate league 1 football] and Smith, probably the classiest player at the hall for years, then our ambition is on a par with parasite Hearn"s Borient!

I take it you'll be writing out a £50k cheque to the club to cover the extra wages?

your really are a $%&* wit, how many times do we have to say this, the club needs to be run with a budget you moron. The finances of the club havent looked so good for a long time, so why chuck all that hard work away just to apeize you. Tilly, Brush and Martin have not let us down so far so get back in your pram and stop your $%&*ing moaning you $%&*

Yeah, we really suffered without Constantine last season.
 
I don't think we should really make any comments about ambition until we are two weeks away from the start of the season and have not signed anyone / everyone out of contract has left, etc. We should wait and see what Tilly's got up his sleeve when he gets back from holiday.

As for Dudfield, part of the reason he's reluctant to stay is probably his lack of first-team action this season
 
Wiggy - why don't you $%&* off and support Orient ? Your level of intellect and positive contribution to debate is ideally suited for them.

I bet you were really disappointed when we got promoted weren't you ? Connie may or may not be better than Gray and Dudfield may or may not be better than both of them. Personally I'd rather have eleven $%&*-poor players that have a bit of pride in putting the shirt on than one prima-donna with an over-inflated estimation of his own virtue.
 
Ah! Now this is what I've missed. Yes, Constantine was a 'big hit' in League One last season. An **amazing** 10 goals (count 'em; you only need your hands) in 40 games. What a shame we couldn't hang on to him last season. After all, Eastwood and Gray only scored 37 goals between them. A travesty. A conundrum. What are we to do ..?
 
OK Wiggy. Business Studies lesson time, are you sitting comfortably? Then we'll begin -

Income is money that comes in. Expenditure is money that goes out (for example, peoples wages).

Income > Expenditure = Profit (Good)

Income < Expenditure = Loss (Bad)

There endeth the lesson for today.
