This will continue on for another five weeks until in the last few hours of the transfer window we make some hasty deals for a few overpaid, underperforming left-overs rubbing their hands together at the wages in front of them.

 

[Zatara]

Imagine if we signed 2 players with a combined age of 70, Zat and Big Oils head would fall clean off.

Whose the 2 ?

I'd be fine with it as long as we signed 2 youngsters as well.

Is this Wharton lad that we are being linked with , from Blackburn , any good ?. I have never seen him play.

Looks highly promising on youtube, England u19 and while he looks very different to Garners style, he has bite in the tackle, strong runner and a good pass on him.

I thought Mosh Man was dipping into his own pocket out of the goodness of his little heart to make us great again??

He should be simply to protect his investment.

Currently he looks like a massive risk taker.

Even £50mil would make sense

So this is nothing to with FFP (or whatever the hell it's called now) - It's purely to do with the owner pulling the ladder up?

Probably a little from column A and a little from column B. I don’t know the rundown of the p&s figures, but I can’t imagine we’re in breach of that any more given the assets we’ve sold and lack of investment in the squad over the past couple of years.

We had this debate last week Zat that we didn’t have a single penny to spend this summer, do you see this now?

According to his interview he can fund it himself. What he didn’t say was that he’d do it by selling the players and giving the money to the builders.

I also got jumped on for suggesting he was asset stripping us back in January. We need to chase this cowboy out of the football club. Enough is enough now. He will go down as one of the worst owners in English football history.

 

[blue to the bone]

Looks similar to what happened Leicester last season isn't it.
They only made one signing for a finish. Started the season terribly and ended up down

 

[Streetender1878]

Has anybody worked out how we're more skint this year than last?

I'm struggling to compute how selling Anthony Gordon, Moise Kean, ISS, Ellis Simms, Nkounkou and waving goodbye to 310k a week of salaries (Mina, Coady, Vinagre, Davies, Townsend, Begovic) means we somehow have less money than before?

This.

 

[Tony1985]

Sitting here thinking we should have never sacked Martinez (I’m pretty sure I wanted him gone at the time as well), just been patient until that summer, and then give him the massive budget to sort the defence out and add a bit more talent up top.
Every decision since then has been to the detriment

mulling is my favourite, I take absolutely no notice until the club starts to mull.

He can’t spend what he doesn’t have Zat.
His main priority is finishing the stadium, and it looks like he doesn’t have the means to even do that alone.

It absolutely baffles me how many people are content with the minor board room reshuffle we got and think it will be enough

It was barely even change as far as I'm concerned. The owner and chairman are most responsible for the mess the club is in and both are carrying on as normal.

We need a takeover and it needs to be right now this month. Winning football matches and not getting relegated is far more important than the stadium.

We currently have a squad which i absolutely do not believe will survive. We have 5 weeks to fix that but I'm not at all optimistic either.

Yeah he just forgot to mention the bit about having no access to money in the UK at the moment.

He needs to get himself a revolut card.

That squad that has travelled to Switzerland will probably lose about 3-0 on Friday.
