Got to be one of these

Didn't Nixon say "20 goals"?

Murray is the only one of these previously linked with us this window.

Any one of those could get 20 goals if they played their socks off but the same applies to Beckford and I can't see him getting 20.

Long time since we saw a 20 goal striker in our team.
Patrick Bamford off to Boro isn't he?

Wouldn't surprise me if it was Kiwi Chris Wood from Leicester. He is only 22 but has the build that Freedman seems to think he needs.
Glenn Murray has better touch and finishing though.

It's Welbeck apparently.

Be very pleased with Wood, he's more than good enough to be our main striker at this level. Given his age I'd probably prefer him to Murray too. If he did do well for us on loan though we'd be priced out of any permanent move.

Because you don't want a new striker?

Also available in liquid form. PG has just signed a new contract for the official supply to BWFC hence the no recognised striker for the first game of Phil and DF's  anticipated promotion season.

Promotion season?
Where did that come from? I thought that Gartside and Freedman had gone to great lengths to avoid suggesting we might get anywhere near promotion?

The only speculation about that came from the BN (who talk BS anyway) and some (over) optimistic fans.
But not from Gartside or Freedman as far as I can tell.

I would be amazed if either of them said they expected us to get promoted with this team so please show me the quotes. 
If Freedman in particular said that I have completely misread what is happening. Where is it Carrs? I'm genuinely interested.

From the assumptions made in the conventions adopted re impairment in the June 2013 accounts? 
So the Accountant who prepared them worked on the assumption (last year) it might happen this season.
Presumably this Accountant has a crystal ball or is a football expert?
Presumably you're suggesting that because Gartside signed off the Accounts at the time in his capacity as Chairman that's the same as him saying BWFC will get promoted this season?  It's not. He's saying "At this point in time I have no reason to believe the Accountants assumptions are wrong"

And Freedman said what?

The review is a legal requirement and very important to us considering the amount of debt. Formed based on information supplied by the board and the person signing the accounts. No accountant creates it based on what they think or makes up. It is what they are told.
Freedman is aware of the task and expectations of the board. However you should really be asking what if. What if we do not do it this term, how do we survive, how do we pay the bills.


Not an assumption but anticipated two very different things.


Face smell the coffee. What happens this term may be critical to the clubs survival.


In simple terms the whole financial structure is based on being promoted this season.

The End really is Nigh

Understand what you're implying Carrs but it's a big stretch to say that they're saying it and that they're saying it now. 
They've set the stall out for mid-table safety .

In today's BN Freedman is making noises along the lines of "We've spent the Summer perfecting a system which sees us play two strikers, but given that I don't rate Davies and I think Wilkinson isn't anywhere near good enough yet, we've had to abandon our plans and go back to Beckford on his own up front."

[You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]

We will get mullered by Watford.

And obviously he knows his players far better than I ever could, but if you've spent time developing a new system, why not give it a go with the players you've got, rather than abandoning it before you've given it a chance?

Throw Wilkinson in and see how he does.

Where's the harm in that?

Try answering without trying to twist my words to fit your own agenda.

So come on now you know what is anticipated and budgeted for. Show me how we achieve it and get out of it. Then show me how we survive to gain promotion in order to begin repayment of the debts.

No I don't Carrs. I know what the assumption used to justify the 2012/13 financial statements was, but have no idea what the current objectives or budgets are - although all the indicators are that the manager hasn't been given the budget to compete for promotion.

You're attempting to imply that the club has given the manager sufficient funds to assemble a team that can get to the premiership this season which is patently untrue.

You're also implying that the manager and chairman have publicly stated that promotion is the objective for this season - as opposed to a nice to have if we can do it on a shoestring. And the only "evidence" for this is a minor statement of objectives in an outdated document when of course those objectives could have changed countless times in the intervening period.

Like you, I don't like the situation we're in, but fail to see how putting words into the manager's mouth can help - especially as the manager is busy getting on with dealing with reality as far as I can tell.
