I know he wouldn't go out on loan in January and ended up with no squad number,Dummett got a new contract ,looks like he's in limbo at the moment though we haven't got Targett yet!
OK.... daily private jet news, arrivals from Sion (Switzerland), Berlin and Faro (would imagine a millionaires holiday flight)
A nice reunion with Colback there. They're welcome to Clark and Hayden as well so they can get the "****e of 2016" crew back together.
The reality is that we are confined to spending within FFP rules so unless they increase the commercial income by upwards of £70m we won’t be having to many big spending windows.
I think just a few players will transform the team - ie good CD and striker and we're already looking vety different.
I’m sure it’s something to do with his mrs not wanting to live in the north east. Also Villa being twats with the transfer maybe.
Amortisation of players is usually over a 4 year period (average contract length) but it’s also subject to front loading. Meaning the amortisation is released to the p and L over the course of a players contract. And as they stagger it eventually means that whatever you spend get released to the p and l. So it’s a huge problem for an entity that has been slightly loss making. We have a head start due to Ashley’s reluctance to spend. Circa £300m. But once that’s spent it’s about being within our own means. Thus it’s critical we uplift commerce by 70m plus from this season onwards or we won’t be competing anytime soon.
