The Regulator Posted August 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Yak is gone for rumoured 1.5m, done deal, and beckford is also gone, 3m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Feel sick. Why the fuck has Beckford gone, this season will be a nightmare. And that Argentinian lad? Don't get your hopes up, he won't play for us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tzp7zy Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 FFS, how desperate are we to get just 4.5m for Yak and Becks. I can understand taking 10mill for Arteta (altho not at 11pm) but we turned down 4.5m for Yakubu last season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowensda Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 1.5M is disgusting for Yaks ability. That wouldn't get you a league 1 striker for that. Pissed off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 I'll support Everton through thick and thin but in times like these it is so hard. I mean when will we sign players ffs? Teams like Bolton and Stoke can do it who are around our level (if not worse!) and we can't. It's just a joke, and I expect January to be worse. Jags to Arsenal. Baines to Man City. It's just heart-breaking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philinsuffolk Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 I haven't seen a figure for Yak mentione anywhere. But assuming it is £1.5m, lets not forget his salary is £50k a week - £2.6m per year. If you add the Yak & Arteta salaries - we have just cleared £6.5m a year off the wage bill.

GoodisonRoad Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Fully expect a relagation fight this season. No im not over reacting. Were are we going to get goals from now? we struggled enough last season and we all asked for another striker when we were getting 10 from Beckford, were going to depend on Cahill far too much and he is now the wrong side of 30. our striking options are Saha who does well to play 15 games a season, Victor Anichebe who, well we may aswell have me playing, a Argentine Leicester reject and a youngster from Greece. What worries me even more is that in the past few weeks, the whole "the lack of signings doesnt bother us, as long as we keep our best players" Philosophy from most of our key players has just been shot to bits in one foul swoop with the sale of Arteta...

I take your point but we are where we are. The debt has to be reduced, there is no choice of that. And tonight our debt is reduced by almost 25%. That in the long term has benefits, including to help get new investment. Alan Ball, Bob Latchford, Lineker, Rooney, Lescott. I do believe that the greatest fucking club in the world are still here and still one of the most respected clubs in Britain. We are Everton, so everyone needs to get their heads up. We fight on and we fight fucking hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevO Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 It's not a good day for everton. I can't see this season going well, yak will get goals for blackburn.

The Regulator Posted August 31, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Or arteta will get injured/play shit again like has has for us since he signed that "new" contract, Yak will be a fat lump of shit like he was for us, Beckford will bang goals in the championship but struggle at top level.....theres always another side of the coin the fact is, we brought in a striker when we sold 2, which I admit is pretty dire considering our inability to get goals in the first place. However, we offloaded Beckford for a profit, we got yak off the wage budget, and we sold a 29 year old past his prime for 10 mil.....good financial business which ahs helped us balance the books... Also phil mcnulty reporting that drenthe confirmation is coming soon... we didn't have yak or arteta for large portions of last season and played well, beckford is a loss admittedly, but we'll see.....
