We’re like an old haggard brass, who used to be quite a looker, being shopped around by her aging pimp

Hey don’t knock them, cheap and experienced. So I’ve heard anyway…

Only great news if there was someone or some consortium willing to step in.

At the moment no names are mentioned

It doesn't matter if it's good news or bad news, 777 can't close the deal.

Only if Wayne had the funds

Issue will then be....who repays the £300mill of loans that the club have jacked on it?

Moshiri hopefully, as it’s his debt.

how much are ya asking?

 

[DuncansPigeons]

As I’ve said before, get safe first then reevaluate.

We are realistically past the deductions even with that nonsense 3rd charge looming that I’d be confident of anyway.

A couple of big player sales to balance the PSR, new stadium nearly that proper money can refinance and start looking upwards

So is this deal really off the table now? Good if it is they are a crowd of shysters. This could turn out to be a blessing in disguise imo.

It's a bit early yet to cancel the hitching posts for the horses

I don’t know what you’re getting at here mate. Are you saying that because we’ve kicked the payment down the road a bit that they haven’t actually cost us £40m?

Is it financially prudent to sell two players for £10m and then spend £40m on their replacements who are no better a year later?

in a P&S sense those two players bought hit us say 8m per year for 5 years (assuming 5 year contracts).

In a cash flow sense nothing paid in year which probably helped pay stage payments on the stadium. Although my guess is we would have got 100% cash up front

@Tom Hughes Are you to reveal the names of these potential investors yet?

Imagine if we still had to pay £8m towards the transfer fees of Gbamin and Moise Kean this summer, would you see that as a good thing?

Maybe Wayne Rooney will buy us?

Yes, so in year 1 the charge is neutral between the incomings and outgoings. Years 2-5 are the issue.

The second part in regards to cash flow is correct, though it's not as if selling those players and buying Beto were linked or the only two options. We could have bought a better player than Beto, and if we were concerned with cash, we could have just not bought Beto.

Not worried. Sports franchises always find buyers. And this team is about ready to move into a new stadium.

Over a billion of debt. Low revenues, low performance. That’s not a catch
