I just read Sydney Ger post on the rumour page, a good read about recruitment and youth, the about £25-30m we are going to spend on players. Sorry if this pishs on your chips Sydney Ger but where do we get this money? . Even in the season with CL money and the sale of Aribo and Basdy we made a loss. Maybe more loans Sorry investment. With all the happening that are going on with the Copland road stand and the cost it will encur to say Weare going to spend that amount of money is just in the words of the late Jimmy Sanders on Bunkum. John you said it was a good post have you heard anything that would suggest we are going to spend big.

Mull read my posts. Unlike u I’m not it here to slag other peoples posts.
07 Jul 2024 08:56:08
He does state in the post that this figure will include any fee for people being sold. if dessers and lammers both leave that could generate 7-8m. We have already bought diamonde for a reported 4.5m. Add they two figures together and that's half the 25m already. Then whatever the other players we have brought in have cost so far.
07 Jul 2024 08:59:24
Think SydneyGer said with sales taken into account, if cantwell, Dessers, Wright, Davies, Lawrence go, you could be looking at bringing in possibly 15m, with another 10m spent for a total rebuild with purchases structured over a few years as usual.
Also made good money in Europe last year and probably this year, wages significantly down too. There's also a real possibility of money coming in for Tav and Goldson.
Don't think Sydney is that far off the mark with his post.

OP, fair amount of effort with reading Sydney’s post fully. Turnover was his main point, lots of players leaving. It would suggest rangers might actually want money for letting our players leave to other clubs.
As much as the Copland road issue has got plenty of time in the media, there’s not a lot out there to say the actual project is costing a material amount more. If anything, the inability to not play at home for Europe will be the biggest loss. Again, not a lot of details out there to confirm how much.
07 Jul 2024 09:03:45
I don’t think you’ll piss on his chips Mull, you had no influence on people opinion when you posted all the finance rubbish under your previous name, I suspect you’ll have less influence now.
07 Jul 2024 10:10:23
Tbh I don't think that's the original guy, maybe wrong though.
07 Jul 2024 10:40:07
Fork give us a joke. This site is too serious. c'mon the Dutch.
07 Jul 2024 10:56:59
His first name was isle_of_mull and he was always on talking crap about finances and share prices, we was away with the fairies then and he’s the same again. Knows nothing but happy to spread doom and glom posts to whoever will listen which generally is nobody but financial expects from the east side. It’s the same at the start of every season.
07 Jul 2024 11:17:21
No worries Dado was reading between lines, noticed a few welcome him back a few weeks ago under I. O. M first name, though it couldn't be same guy, cheers bud?.
07 Jul 2024 11:36:32
Why do farts smell? Then deaf people get to enjoy them too? for booboo, "are you entertained"??.
07 Jul 2024 11:36:39
Iom we spent 21 million last summer.
07 Jul 2024 11:47:31
I found it quite a good and sensible post by Sydney.
07 Jul 2024 11:47:46
What part of his post is "crap" Dado? Most of it is on the button!
If we can't make a net profit after receiving CL money, and money from the sales of Bassey and Aribo, how are we getting money to spend on players? More loans? If it is, when are we meant to get out this vicious circle?
If the majority of this 25-30m is coming from player sales, how much are we expecting in from these? We made nothing on Barisic and Lundstrum (I'm talking fees not wages), so that hit us. The sellable assets who are rumoured to be going are Tav, Goldson, Dessers, Lammers, Hagi and Cantwell, but until bids are made, we're only speculating (or in most cases, hoping), the numbers mentioned are real.
Out of curiosity, what do you think we could get for all of them? We don't even know if they are staying, or actually going.
Honestly, and I'm being generous here, I think the most we'll get for that lot is 20m. I know some might be shocked by this, but I'd rather be a realist, than a fan hoping that some big spending Saudi outfit comes in and throws silly money at us.

Fork mull is same guy.
07 Jul 2024 12:05:22
IOM has never said a good word about the club ever. I have never thought of him as one of us. Roofe we spent 21 million last year which is not far off the bottom line Sydney said so yes mull post is utter drivel as always.
07 Jul 2024 12:17:04
Paul did we spend 21 million? What about the 12 odd million we got for player transfers? Does that not get took into consideration. Paul I'm not saying your wrong mate, not sure how it works. My wife does my books, not to savvy with all that stuff tbh.
07 jul 2024 12:22:27
me neither, i'm sure he posted a lot of nonsense many times before
to be fair if i lived on mull i would be off my trolley too.
07 Jul 2024 12:56:18
Good to see he has been surgically removed from the finance page.
07 Jul 2024 13:07:04
I know he's a gob*****, Storm, and he would give an aspirin a sore head, but he has a point when he says we had more money last season. Is that maybe how we could spend 21m (not net spend)?
With no CL money, player sales profit much lower, and the biggest red flag that we could only post a profit of 250k (before tax), does anyone really think we're spending 30m? I don't!
07 Jul 2024 13:22:08
I didn’t read Sidney as suggesting they would be our net spend sunshine, I read more were looking to flip 15 players and to be honest, I’d expect 20m/ 30m for them. we should get 8m just for dessers and Lammers.
This however, would suit mulls agenda but personally, I don’t think it’s unreasonable to expect 20/ 25m to be spent.
07 Jul 2024 13:28:10
Tom you were off your trolley a long time ago my friend ??.
07 Jul 2024 13:43:09
I wonder whatever happened to sweep on here ?.
07 Jul 2024 14:03:03
He never Dado, that bit of my post was all mine.
It's important that fans know that any money we spend will not be net spend as we can't afford to do that now. It's not a bad thing as the tims have been doing it for years and it's worked for them.
Spending the most money, paying players the highest wages, does not guarantee success.
07 Jul 2024 14:03:56
I’m 99.9% he’s Lammy01 (Lenny01) SWS.
07 Jul 2024 14:18:44
LOL, Prso if it is our friend Lenny then just call him Mullgrew instead :D.
07 Jul 2024 14:34:59
I'm with you Dado on this. The poster, Lammy01, has a definite Sweep vibe about him.
I used to think sweep was one of us until I noticed that he was getting his negative info from the tims forum, then coming on here and posting it. Remember when he posted that Joe Aribo (a devout Christian and gentleman) had spat at the tim support? He got it over there, then came on here spouting how the boy should be sacked. The lad obviously hadn't spat at anyone. Aye, he was a character, not!
07 jul 2024 14:36:11
bb, i know mate, but i'm old and drug addled, so i ignore myself
wakter, i believe stringly that both are here
generic is verdant, his obsession with printing other peoples wirds befire trying to bring them down stood out a mile first post, i mentioned and ge stopped doing it,
i think lammy or another guy is sweep, another that some defended fir a long time.
07 Jul 2024 14:38:26
We have europa league money roofe.
07 Jul 2024 14:39:14
Hey guys, i grew up on the Isle of Mull. We’re not all bad I can assure you!
07 Jul 2024 14:48:41
I know that Storm, but it's not as much as the CL money we made.
07 Jul 2024 16:22:24
Yes, not taking in fees. Our outgoing fees, according to accounts was 21 million. Obviously we made money on transfers as we will this season also.
07 Jul 2024 17:04:56
Molsgoals is another poster who has disappeared from the site.
07 Jul 2024 17:45:24
I thought wilkinsscreemer might be Mols?
07 Jul 2024 20:18:29
Mull, we're not going spend inordinate sums. Disabled toilets need upgraded which must but we're not putting in CH seats nor blue RFC toilet paper.
08 Jul 2024 07:55:24
I know it’s not as much as cl but it’s still money. It is also good amount of money that will help you just can’t ignore it because it’s not as much as cl money.
