Wolves, his budget was ?9m - ?9.5m. He got promoted, we got relegated and there is hardly any difference."

        all this stuff (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Oct 27, 20:03:17
        
        It's quite clearly a joke (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 20:10:31
        
        I apologise for making out that you were trolling. (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Oct 27, 20:31:27
        
        I'm not really that bothered kddd, or I'd have said so at the time (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 20:37:22
        
        fair dos (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Oct 27, 20:39:31
        
        Is now, I won't be bothering with much football stuff again (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 20:50:17
        
        Don't be a silly sausage. (NCFC) - Ken Dodds Dads Dog, Oct 27, 21:02:51
        
        It's ok, I think Tricky actually got what he really wanted in the end (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 21:15:00
        
        oh right, fair enough. Misjudged you. (n/m) (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Oct 27, 20:14:02
        
        I wouldn't mind, but you're in this game all the time (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 20:18:53
        
        oh right. so you were after a scrap with me after all. (n/m) (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Oct 27, 20:39:58
        
        No, I'm just telling you what it's like. And the times you banter I take it (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 20:45:36
        
        fuck me. i had no idea the interpol gag was anything to do with you (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Oct 27, 21:15:56
        
        How can you not fucking know that you idiot (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 21:19:05
        
        In future, don't join in with "in gags" if you have no fucking idea what they're about (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 21:23:17
        
        This is probably an unwise thing to do, but if I could just butt in here... (NCFC) - Worzel Scrimmage, Oct 27, 20:25:58
        
        Just telling it how it is for me all the time though. The a league thread below (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 20:34:40
        
        "Well played Trollton" (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Oct 27, 20:41:05
        
        But after seeing the facts I posted, you can acknowledge the comparison was horse shit (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 20:47:36
        
        the comparison isn't the important bit - the backing of the manager is (n/m) (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Oct 27, 20:55:25
        
        If it wasn't, then why did you use it? (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 20:58:59
        
        so ?8.5 million and one of the higher wage bills in the division isn't backing the manager (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Oct 27, 21:03:15
        
        Not when he's wanting money for players, because if those players on loan (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 21:10:08
        
        they gave the man a budget, a good budget compared to other bottom-half championship teams (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Oct 27, 22:17:26
        
        First you've used the example, then you've said it doesn't matter, and now you're back (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 22:35:51
        
        ?8.5m was the important bit (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Oct 28, 08:16:32
        
        idiot (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Oct 28, 09:08:11
        
        i'll take that as a no then. (n/m) (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Oct 28, 09:52:17
        
        I'd imagine you probably would (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Oct 28, 11:34:29
        
        Anyway, I'm back to not posting my opinoin now, you're just proving how much of a (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 20:49:13
        
        The second paragraph is a bit rushed (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 20:20:52
      - "if we actually had a board who could back a manager properly" (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Oct 27, 19:01:34
        
        sam vokes ?250k, Dave Edwards ?675k, we're almost exactly the same as wolves (n/m) (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 19:04:23
        
        We don't know how much the loans cost. But are you saying (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Oct 27, 19:05:16
        
        He's compared us to something we're nothing like (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 19:06:11
        
        Surprised you think that. Loans all cost fee's now, that came out a while back that (NCFC) - megson, Oct 27, 20:03:39
        
        Don't. That's too depressing. (n/m) (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Oct 27, 20:06:21
        
        I didn't even touch on their loans though (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 20:06:03
        
        regardless of how much Wolves actually spent ?8.5 million is backing the manager (NCFC) - Ralf Scrampton, Oct 27, 20:27:42
        
        No it's not, it's competing with the rate of the division. It doesn't mean you get quality (NCFC) - pants, Oct 27, 23:04:37
        
        fair enough. (n/m) (NCFC) - Tricky Hawes, Oct 27, 19:08:20
