The stadium is the most important part of this, if we are not hearing serious progress on that this time next year people will begin to question what's happening but till then we can only go on the evidence available and that suggests progress is being made.

With regards to players people have said we have registered concrete interest confirmed by some journo's but we won't know till the window is over and see who we have ended up with
I reckon not finishing in the lower half again would be more important than the stadium regarding any player wanting to join us to be honest.

That's what keeps me 'going' though, the fact that reliable people (read: Esky) have said we're interested and all that in Mata and Witsel, but until we see them in Royal Blue, we've held talks with an unattainable target for what it's worth, as most good players want a good, strong team that finishes in promising positions (European football/Cups etc) or wins the lot. Currently we're doing neither and finishing lower in the league - if you're a World and European Cup winner (like Mata) what exactly tempts you to come to us, other than moneys? Granted he's not exactly a 'potential' or 'up and coming' player, as he's pretty much the finished article regarding ability, so we might be his last or next to last team to play for, but we now supposedly have the dosh for loads of players, what would tempt Kimmich (for example, picking a name at random) to come here and get out of Bayern? Is he getting Europe? No. Is he getting cups/titles? No.

In a way, that's a Catch 22, as we need good players to win things, but we need to win things to get good players. Everton, that.

Also obviously that doesn't mean they can't be 'mercenaries', but I'm not arsed as long as they play well tbh.
 

Mock all you want but the penny will drop eventually.

We have an owner who is the go to guy for the richest Russian oligarch when the Soviet Union was dissolved our owner was the financial brains behind there investment process.

Do you think we are still pissing abouuy.

people laughed & scorned when he made his intentions clear the Koeman was his man. They ain't laughing now

We will see
