I can’t wait for them to see our state of the art portacabins. Not sure I like his statement of wanting a team in the UK filled with Turkish players and a Turkish manager.
Do you think we'd have paid his wage? Again, this is the club that publicly admitted it couldn't afford to keep Reece Burke.
It'll work or it won't. I doubt they'll invest tens of millions required to get us close to the premier league and then recruit/ keep a manager based purely on their nationality. If a few Turkish prospects get an opportunity and fly high here over the next few years, why would that be inherently bad? They're buying an English club. They could be buying a Turkish club if they wanted one. Of course the media guy isn't putting all the money in. He's fronting the deal but City won't be his whim - he'll have backers to keep happy. And once a deal is done, the EFL will have to ratify the backers.
Depends what you believe. Burke didn’t want to stay. He wasn’t any better than what we currently have. Absence does strange things to peoples perceptions of a player.
On Look North round up, Peter Levy notes grimly we are now one place above relegation positions, while non league grimsby's win against Wrexham is described as a 'great night at Blundell Park' Reality check needed for the yellowbelly **** who writes the sports headlines at Look North
I know there’s only one stat that’s actually important, but if you didn’t know the score the rest look like an improvement
