Sullivan says reported net spend a myth
|

Says it's simply not the case that our net spend is close to nothing (don't recall anyone saying that?). So he thinks it's alright if we have spent a little more than nothing? Why doesn't he just come out and say the correct net spend if he doesn't agree with what's been reported? Must have the best Chartered Accountants to write it all down for him. If anyone knows the correct amount its him, yet he provides not one figure, I wonder why? Draw your own conclusions.
Got to love the last paragraph. "The recruitment staff are working diligently to identify the right sorts of players to improve a number of positions.” Roughly translated, " I am looking at potential loans and freebies on you tube.
Sick of this condescending midget and his repetitive spin.

Sullivan keen to “dispel a myth”
David Sullivan has addressed the ‘net spend’ controversy on Hammers transfers declaring he wants to dispel a myth on the issue.
He declares in tonight’s official programme notes: “I want to dispel a myth about our net spending on new players in recent years. There has been claims that our net spend has been next to nothing but that simply is not the case.
Since June 2016, we have spent club record transfer fees on Andre Ayew and Marko Arnautovic and also significant sums on other individuals including Chicharito.
We have recouped some of that money by selling more than 20 players, including Dimitri Payet. However, there has been some incorrect reporting on the amount of money we did or did not spend on some players, particularly those we brought in on Bosman transfers.
While no fee has changed hands for players aged 24 or older, significant agent and signing on fees and wages are needed to secure players who can literally choose their next move.
When you add in sell-on clauses and wrongly reported transfer fees our net spend has been higher than has been suggested by so-called experts. The club will be looking to strengthen again this summer with a view to enjoying a better 2018/19.”
He adds: “The recruitment staff are working diligently to identify the right sorts of players to improve a number of positions.”

Cheap shit and loans then.
We'll be right up against it next season if we stay up.
These cunts have no intention whatsoever of seriously investing in the squad.

Why doesn’t the cunt just keep his mouth shut and realise ‘actions speak louder than words ‘?

He talks, and shit flies out his mouth, coating any poor cunt within spraying distance.
I'd like to ask him, why should we believe a word that comes out of your mouth. State of the art retractable seating, fans as close to the pitch as at Upton Park or it's a dealbreaker, NET spend is really good, we're dilligently working hard to razzle dazzle you gullible cunts.
Ooops.......didn't mean to make that last sentance sound so honest and straight.

Birmingham fans used to complain about thing. He's the only person in football who includes things like agent fees and wages when he's talking about net spend.
He's just a bit of a bullshit artist, really.

He’s right that there are other factors, but there are other factors that affect other clubs and we are below them in net spend and we should not be if we were as ambitious as he likes to make out that we are.

Well, I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt.
I mean, we've obviously got some of the finest recruitment staff in the business working diligently on things, given our transfer dealings in the past.

It's not the amount we spend, but how we spend it. Totally the wrong model.

Said on another thread ..: he just doesn’t get it
HE needs to go
Sell up to someone who is serious about improving the club not just his own wealth
These words imply Burnley never happened and nothing is changing
Needs coining again to make him understand

Re: Sullivan says reported net spend a myth

In one paragraph he says that they have spent club record fees on Ayew and Arnautovic
And in another paragraph he says that no money has changed hands for any player over 24year old.
Surely that is a blatant lie

He's talking specifically about Bosman transfers in that paragraph. Ayew and Arnautovic were not bosmans.
