Mate , around the stadium is going to be mental. The plans for in and around sheepfolds are unreal. With keel crossing opening it's going to be genuinely unbelievable.
I presume this will be a long term project mate. Definitely need to improve the hospitality side for future income

Yes mate. It's building on the infrastructure that's in place now with connectivity and 5g and such. Plans for more hospitality, media hub, esports national centre etc. In and around sheepfolds are going to be 120 houses, the new H.I.C.S.A academy. It's all good stuff.
 
Pretty much plus when you factor in the sponsorship money we haven't really spent a thing - in fact we are probably in profit
Aye that was what I was thinking mate. Basically we’ve still got a huge transfer pot and that without factoring in a few of the squad players leaving. Better than even I could hope for.
 
I think we all know that Roberts played his best football when Amad was with us.
If we continue to get these top players in a bonus effect may well be Roberts getting his ‘Amad’ form back.
Exactly mate, we don’t necessarily need to replace him yet, he’s already shown us what he’s capable of when others have the same thought process. Get the spine right and 1 or 2 others and we’re going in the right direction.

Similarly with Rigg. I'm excited to see him develop already but I think adding quality players like Diarra will supercharge Rigg and others. The competition and skill level in training will bump up several notches.
