I mean that literally changes nothing all that says is they won’t sell if you don’t offer what they want
There’d be a reset. Then the TV money would go to the one watched more, which in this country would be the league. ‘Sky money’ is advertising revenue. That follows the viewers. After initial interest nobody would want to watch the same games on repeat. The viewers would watch the league. Saudi or whatever may financially back it, but once it stops being a cash cow they’d pull out. There is nothing better than local rivalries and day to day banter and excitement. A super league would be like the NFL, you can watch, you might even enjoy for a while, but when alls said and done you don’t really give a ****.
It’s Cutlers job to prepare Patto as our number 1 until he isn’t. There’s no guarantee we sign one even if we try
No but how he’s worded it to me and the “developing him for the PL” sounds to me we trust Patto to be number 1 also on the Xhaka stuff they want extraordinary offers. More clubs involved. I think we will move on
I know there’s likely to be a bit of cat and mouse going on but I certainly don’t want us to be making ‘an extraordinary offer’ for a 33 year old.
Liverpool, Man United and Arsenal are this countries most successful clubs. They are central to the history of football in this country. The league is diminished without them. The clubs might exist but the quality will drop massively. Income would fall through the floor. Clubs won't be able to afford wages and transfer fees. They also won't be able to afford state of the art stadia and academies. That might not bother you, but it will bother most, especially younger fans.
Yes I get that I just think it seems like we are trying to big him up and with the lack of new links and talk of us making a U-Turn from Nixon I think it was. I wouldn’t be shocked to see us sign a backup maybe
I disagree you don’t target two major number ones and then just change your mind in my opinion anyway, you could be right though
