What does Lambert want Evans to tell the fans? 12:06 - Aug 4 with 4456 views | pointofblue | How many players he expects to sign, if any? What the financial situation is? What his expectations are for the season? It still feels like Lambert is trying to influence or steer Evans via the press either way. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

What does Lambert want Evans to tell the fans? on 12:46 - Aug 4 by tractorboy1978 | If the whole of the Harrison fee went to Bristol Rovers because we still owed instalments, I would guess we still owe considerable amounts re Jackson, Donacien, Edwards, Nsiala and Nolan too. Is that eating up the sell ons? [Post edited 4 Aug 2019 12:54]

I think that it's this kind of jumble that PL wants explained. Not sure that, if it were, the fanbase would be placated anyway. Not that it matters because ME would not offer anything more than the plate of platitudes, but perhaps PL would feel that the fans would then be more sympathetic to his own plight. If true, it does say to me that PL is keenly aware of the vanishingly small difference he has been able to make to actual results so far. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

What does Lambert want Evans to tell the fans? on 13:29 - Aug 4 with 1343 views | Wickets | It came as a bit of a surprise to me that we still owed money on the Harrison transfer ,most of us felt that the transfer money coming in last season would more than cover the transfer outlay but maybe other clubs might still owe us for players sold last season. I cant say i look to close at published accounts can someone enlightened me ? though i suppose more details will be realised after the end of the next tax year ? | ![](/images/avatars/206.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
What does Lambert want Evans to tell the fans? on 14:01 - Aug 4 with 1290 views | cbower | The injuries are really clouding the situation for me. With Sears, Morris and Folami all fit, would we be that short up front? With Nolan, Edwards, Bishop , Dozzel and Nydam fit, we would be overstocked with good quality for L1 in midfield. With Chambers and Nsiala available, are we massively short at the back? I can see the need for a versatile defender maybe and a different kind of striker (in the Elliot mould) would certainly be beneficial but we seem to forget, we are in L1 now. Somebody put up an 11 of players who did not get on the pitch yesterday and whilst it wasn't amazing, it wasn't too shabby! Think about it (and I know some are injured but they are still getting paid) but we could put out: Norris Emmanuel Nydam Chambers Nsiala Dozzell Nolan Edwards Bishop Sears Roberts Subs: Morris Folami Clements Dobra Cotter Webber | ![](/images/avatars/3586.gif) |

What does Lambert want Evans to tell the fans? on 12:41 - Aug 4 by pointofblue | As I’ve said elsewhere, my gripe is with the sell on fees which we’re receiving. It’s unexpected income, he wouldn’t have budgeted for it, why not use it to boost the squad? |
It may be a gripe, but these sell ons probably come in over the period of a players contract. You need to get real life is how it is. Everyone who thinks otherwise is deluded. Bobby Robson never went out and spent lots of money, he along with his staff coached the players to become better players, and if you were good enough you were old enough. | ![](/images/avatars/5247.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

I agree, needs to stop moaning and get on with it. He's got a better squad than most. Has also said in the past that we are only in for free's, so he knows the score. | ![](/images/avatars/834.gif) |

Though there's nothing to say Lambert wants more than free transfers. There's still some decent players out there to target in positions where we could strengthen. Did Lambert go into the summer thinking that Holy and Norwood would be it in terms of first team permanent transfers? | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) |

You appear to be making the assumption that this money is coming in all in one lump sum, which it rarely does. | ![](/images/avatars/5261.gif) |

What does Lambert want Evans to tell the fans? on 00:43 - Aug 5 with 1033 views | pablovian | The following scenario is pure speculation. As a businessman, Evans wants to divest a loss-making business. He would like to 'break even' by recouping the loans he has made to the business, but could write off those 'investments'. He is not, under any circumstances, willing to take personal responsibility for the debt that was assumed when the business was acquired. How should he proceed? Plausibly, by seeking to sell the business as a going concern that has decent prospects. If so, he would cut operating costs and not make additional loans to the business, while avoiding the perception of a fire sale. While this course of action would be logical, it would put the local management team in a difficult situation ... [Post edited 5 Aug 2019 6:51]

You know that do you? I’m ‘worth’ a lot, doesn’t mean I have much spare cash. Shares in a company, equity in my houses, my income and outgoings are what determine my cash flow though. I’m not going round in circles on this debate again though, wealth is entirely different to ability to spend. I’ve got farmers ‘worth’ millions but can’t afford new wellies! | ![](/images/avatars/7015.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
