Let's NOT start the Witch Hunt

[Melton Fox]

I think it's always good to have polarity.

 

[homer]

In fairness, I think it's a great idea to insist JFH plays for a month before making any permanent decision. I think MA possibly always insisted on this but MM went ahead with trying to sign him anyway.

Why ?

We've never done it before

We didn't do it with Carl Cort, or Casino Jimmy or any of the 10 other feckers we have signed

Are you signing the Hasselbaink's record is more suspect than any one of our other close-season signings ??

Maybe MA accepted Cort on MM's say so but was not prepared to accept Jimmy the Zimmer as well without a trial.

I suspect his current attitude might be. Plus his wages would not be far off several of those signings combined, MA possibly thinks that money could best be spent elsewhere. He's only the manager, I know ( for this week, anyway ).

 

[Melton Fox]

I don't see the point in getting a player in for a month FOC and make him play football, when we can sign 2 or 3 instead, pay them, and then not pick them.

agree. like you said hasselbaink would be getting paid a lot of money probably more than a few of those players wages combined so MA asked him to have a trial with us to see if he is worth the money that MM was going to pay him.

Cort, Jimmy etc are nothing like the risk of JFH in both wages and disruption.

 

[homer]

And boast nothing approaching the record of Hasselbaink

Not even feckin' close

 

[Matt_B]

This is turning into more of a saga than Tevez!

 

[ChrisFilter]

How likely do you think it is that MA will be shown the door? Be a complete ****ing joke if he does.

 

[homer]

I would think that it is a 100% certainty, given Mandaric's record

The only question is when

 

[ChrisFilter]

Gutted... who else is going to do a better job?! I'll be fuming if this happens.

 

[Biff]

a lot of little risks = one big risk

why do fans worry about the money side of things.let mm worry about that.

as a fan i want to see the board make a few big gambles.

how can people say that jfh would be ' useless,lazy,disruptive and here for a last payday' to name a few, when he hasnt even kicked a ball for us.

on the one month trial period- he would probably take a couple of those weeks to settle in and get fit, he then has two weeks to probably rush about trying to make an impression,only to not impress.

put your self in jfh shoes, what option would you be more comftable with, the one above, one month or a one seaon deal where he has time to settle in and build

 

[Beliall]

seriously? MA might be on the way out? maybe MM still wants ince? i dont P.S, well said sparky,, made me think

 

[Biff]

Because if some big shot comes in on 3x everybody else's salary, and it disrupts the currently fragile team harmony and it has a negative affect on the players then it directly affects the fans

so jfh was offered 3 x everybody elses salary. source

Players who think like that should not be in the side. A professional team is not an equal opportunities employer.

Player like Carl Cort should not be paid whislt injured. Just watch how quickly he get himself fit!!

spot on

and if the fee and his contract was undiscosed nobody would know what he was earning anyway untill the accounts are published.

a team full high earners could be more of a problem, clash of egos etc.

has anybody got some hard evidence that jfh would be a bad buy
