    We could bring in 100m ( combined)on perhaps two players by then. It’s different world sales wise for anyone that does well now.

    Someone was saying to me earlier that there are two places in the offing if RLB has his way.

    He's expecting one to be a loan and the other to be Amad ...

    ... that'd be nice.

    Something else will take over. Crypto and tech sites most likely.

    Rigg without question will step up.

    We mustn’t forget how elite this lad is, ceiling wise.

    Watch the club videos and this essential child is a massive and vocal part of this squad of grown, pro athlete men.

    He takes the piss out of them, he supports them and he takes the ribbings he gets back.

    The club usually pan to him on the videos, the club fully know what we have.

    It’s not too far fetched to think a Rigg sale in a year or 2 clears out the net spend of this window.

    I think with his youth he be quickly up to speed.

    So quick to get in shape at that age I was caning the beer, gear and birds, living on Wetherspoons minted lamb burgers and I was still in shape.

    Lads a level headed pro he will be in immaculate shape and just need so sharpening up. Likely plays 90 v Huddersfield and that will have him fully ready.

    Psr is a bit of a lost leader, as we have seen with Chelsea, the cost is spread over the contracts and any home grown sales are straight on the profit line.

    Add in how little we spent on transfer fees prior to promotion and we can spend a fair whack.

    Then with wages being so strict in the championship (think we were running st 70% to turnover before it was even a thing)

    We are well ran and dont take financial risks, there's also the debt to the owners that hasn't been converted to equity if we really need it.

    Then you add in the huge uplift in commercial operations and we are in a hell of a place.

    Proper forward planning from KLD and the board

    Bang on mate.

    KLD wants us playing in Europe.

    He hasn’t tossed the future growth in the bin to stay up this year, not a chance.

    Just realised that Dilane Bakwa’s agent is Sports Cover, same as RLB, Masuaku, Mukiele and a few of the other French lads, surely we’ve enquired about him

    They will have worked out financial / growth plans for every option and have plans accordingly.

    We have had this conversation before, but KLD will know if he even gets this half right he is the custodian of a rocket ship that will back the club in numbers that will make people's eyes water

    Aye mate.

    I, and others, have mentioned it many times before.

    There’s barely a more demanding, lunatic and partisan set of fans in the world than Marseille.

    If you have dipped your toe in that madhouse and still got involved in another club, you have the bug and you aren’t ****ing about.

    I agree with this too! I was making the ( possibly obvious ) point that if someone does get 15 goals then we will be ok.

    Stato's might put me right but I think remember one year when we had Craig Russel as our top scorer with 4.

    Imagine the headloss if we signed Amad. What a way to finish an incredible window that would be
