£200m warchest <rofl>

Alan Brazil mentioned it this morning on TalkSport during his chat with Rod Stewart ... they were saying that Celtic just can't compete with that kind of funding ...

The money won't phase us but it doesn't guarantee success ... we spent £100 million on Slimani, Iheanacho, Adrien Silva and Maddison ... only Maddison has been worth the investment ... but at least the money is there <cheers>

.... and it's likely to get under the skin of other fans ... can't think why <laugh>
 
Three ways. I think we've got a lot more premium seats, there are a lot of expensive dining and drinking options and the two pitches means we can potentially have twice as many events.

Clutching at straws a bit there.

Arsenal's model for financing the stadium was different from ours. They basically had 20k more seats at £1000 per season.
We've got 26k of which 10k have gone for £5000 plus and we've also got loads of non football events.

Wheres the extra 10k from? That how many corporate boxes you have because your most expensive season tickers are £2200
 
I can't believe MOTD didn't pick up on Fabinhos performance. Guy was ****ing class last night. We've missed someone like that for years, plus he can play 4 positions to a very high standard.

He's basically why Bakayoko looked good for Monaco.

Talk sport is a good listen tbf. They waffle on but it's usually just excited ex pro's giving their views. I listen to it daily. Some funny **** on there too.

Yeah but it's hardly a decent source of information is it?

No chance Leicester spend two hundred million on transfer fees in one Summer ffs.
 
We might win the league for you yet pal. It’s all good saying we want city to win the league over you lot but the players will be bang up for that if we are in the mix for 3rd.

It makes me sick, it really does.

I'm sure I can do it. Cheering on Utd.. ****ing hell that's like smoking a *** butt off the floor. Desperate times.
 
Theres money mate...i dont know where its going considering official representatives of the club were sayin that the Stadium build wont affect transfer kitty(of course it will if it didnt then Levy has had a brain transplant- he hasnt). Then you get some folk saying...we have money but Poch is being fussy. Personally i think he is following ENICs narrative and what he really feels shines through his very frustrated demeanour of late. I think Levy has neglected his duties as a chairman of a football club which was one good transfer window spend from moving up a notch...a bit like Pool. Hats off to him for being a great Accountant though.

I'd say Poch is frustrated of late because he's realising he's made a mistake. I do believe he's just as much, if not more to blame than Levy for our lack of signings. It's clear even now that Poch has too much faith and loyalty towards certain players and that's massively hindering us. Lloris and Trippier are two prime examples, any other manager would've dropped them ages ago yet he still persists, despite Gazzaniga being excellent and KWP looking great in the rare chances he's been given. It sends a ****ty message to those players though because if they can't get game time when their first team counterpart is playing ****ing **** for ages, when will they ever?

I have to drive around the M25 everyday ... given that it can take 2 hours to drive 40 miles you need something to pass the time .... and they were only quoting what's been in several reports ... the war chest, young squad and new £80 million training complex were apparently 'very persuasive' to Brenda ... that and doubling his salary <whistle>
 
Maddison is ****ing ****e <laugh>

... and yet holds the current record for most direct involvement in Prem goals by a midfielder this season ... 5 goals and 5 assists.... think I have a bet on him against **** Stuart Armstrong at Souhampton ...

... admittedly, neither of them are a Keita or Fred ... thank Christ <laugh>

The game has been put back to end of April so might be academic by then anyway one way or another.

Not sure how that's a record, considering Eriksen has 5 goals and 9 assists this season and I'm sure there are others with better or similar stats. 5 goals and 5 assists for an attacking midfielder is a solid return don't get me wrong, but it's nothing special.
