    They haven't even got the patience, to wait until the bottom end of the prescribed 5 to 10 years, before wanting the ownership out.

    Who wants the owners out?! I think most if not all hoped for at least one decent signing in the last two transfer windows is all.

    I
    ve not seen anyone wanting the ownership out unless I have missed something.

    They will spend when they can. Hopefully we don’t get to close the wire again.

    Apologies, it was perhaps a slight over exaggeration, but the same applies to complaints of any kind. The timeframe was provided very clearly, which was 5 to 10 years, so we need to at least wait until 5 before moaning.

    Yeah, I'm not sure where he got that one from. Just stirring up the pot I guess.

    Everyone’s allowed one mistake a day. No more and no less.

    I'll be pleased when the window is shut, so that people can get it all out their system. Following that, we can all look forward to a big game, potentially a chance to end a 70 year trophy drought, news on a £250 million training ground, and possibly a £2 billion bubble wrap stadium like in Munich.

    It's a dream, plain and simple.

    I am deeply offended by your disparaging comments, which amount to bullying and harassment. I was born legitimately and so have never been a bastard.

    It'll be interesting to see how the summer unfolds - we are €15m up in transfers this years now and that's before Kelly joins Juve (maybe that money is earmarked into next seasons budgets) but we will be going from - "a PSR PoV" (2021/22 €130m spent, 22/23 €160m spent and 23/24 €100m spent) - €390m Total over 3 years down to €230m spent over the three years - so a change of €160m. Could call it €180m as we are automatically starting with the Kelly money in our pocket as well.

    Then increased commercial income starting from this seasons accounts - correct me if I'm wrong but not all of last seasons CL money shows up in those accounts from last year? Adidas only truly starts this year - hence no one knows what the actual figures are yet, suggestions of £30-40m a year compared to Castors £6-7m but it'll be enjoyable to see that money start rolling in on the spreadsheets. Then stuff like Stack sales and hopefully more of a share of profit from merch than under Castore - could be a war chest there in the summer.

    Revenue is already double what it was under Ashley - an that's just them getting started!

    I think they will grow massively commercially over the next five years then these blank psr windows will be bad memories.

    Gutted there’s nothing more in Trippier to Galatasaray. He’s awful, yet currently the sub Howe turns to when we need a goal. Baffled.

    The Kelly transfer hasn’t been confirmed yet.
