As we nearly fill SMS for each game and we are on TV quite a lot, I'm not sure our income would go up much....apart from the money associated with PL placings...assuming the player is that effective for us (after all, the rest of the team may not be on their wavelength ).
Its true though....perhaps that is just what is needed players with experience............Ok at 29 or 30/31 you are only going to get a couple of years out of them. Inexperienced players can learn a lot from this type of player!
5 years at least if the guy has looked after himself, aka CR7, and hasn't snorted like Maradona or boozed himself aka Gascoigne,
If SFC continue to perform as at present, 30K will be a rarity and not the norm. How many do you reckon will be there on Saturday, 27K?
I can't imagine why any rational person would buy a football club as a profit-generating vehicle. There must be a million better ways to get a return on your investment than that. Actually I can't think of one rational reason to buy a football club - unless it's money laundering of some form.
Wasn’t there that line saying how you become a millionaire football club owner? Start off as a billionaire...
Sounds about right. They say the best way to make a small fortune out of horseracing is to start with a large one. I reckon football ownership is no different.
Just saw that on the BBC article talking about Sanchez to City, says "discussions already held" regarding a transfer. If true, and he does go, then it seems that last summer was just a stance by the club regarding the tapping up of VVD from Liverpool. If another club had matched our valuation then he probably would've been free to leave. Heard from City fans on another forum in the summer that apparently they enquired about VVD but were put off by the asking price so dropped their interest early on in the summer. Maybe they have more money now or maybe the asking price has lowered.
Chelsea too according to this on Saintsweb 'VvD's people, so I'll assume agent, met this week with representatives of City and Chelsea, with the permission of Saints. One of the 1st questions they asked City was would VvD get enough games in to qualify for a PL winners medal. I maybe able to find out more on Saturday.' (View from the top)
He has forced the fee down. But we shouldn't be bullied, we've almost done the hardest part now. But I'd make it known to him that his place will be on the bench from now on. If we're getting screwed, he's getting screwed with us.
