    I don't reckon that we paid 9m for Eduoard. Considering our board is recieving so much stick for penny pinching and not re-investing, if they had spent that much money the board would have made all of us fans well aware of that fact.

    It's probably much more likely that we paid 4/5m, with a substantial % of any future fee going to PSG + other add ons. Also, PSG needed money for reserve players this season as they were facing issues of Financial Fair Play over the Mbappe deal which was delayed until this season. So, I doubt they held out for as much as 9m.

    Pure speculation and guesswork on my part.

    I think that’s why they accepted as little as £9m. It’s * peanuts in this market, look at it this way, a young unproven French Ligue 2 defender we were looking at just went for more than that.

    Who is held nowhere near the same regard that Eddy is.

    1. No, just my opinion on what you have said and it is not personal or meant to hurt your feelings.
    2. Pretty much, but as I said you have joined recently when Celtic are having a bit of a rough patch too. It is the very end of transfer window in which we have had a shocker so frustration levels are high.

    Interim accounts of the top of my head, however given he is criticised, so much, I would expect people know this before they start venting tbh mate. (Not directed at you specifically).


    So we will move it onto his basci being the problem next ? Look Dev either way people are going to moan about what he is paid, I have my own view on it, but tbh I don't see the point in debating it as its subjective. I do however think that when people do criticise it they should actually know what they are criticising. Anyway ultimately its decided by DD and I will trust in his judgement.

    We will judge on what he’s doing to justify his wage from a fans point of view - the football and the team.

    Do you think he’s earned his wage this window? He’s a very clever man and an exceptional businessman but he needs reigned in at times. Like Dermot did after the shambles that was Ronny.

    We’re creeping back to that territory and it’s clear that’s where Pedro feels at his most comfortable.

    Nothing in the interim accounts indicates that Lawwell's bonus is solely dependant on CL qualification like you stated.

    From 2017 onwards his remuneration is to be calculated under the new 'Executive Long Term Incentive Plan' which is stated to reward him for both company and football performance.

    This season will be the first year we haven't qualified since they brought it in so we'll see how geared towards football performance it is when the accounts are released in September 2020.
