I'm struggling to comprehend the Chelsea love-in on here this evening.

FFS they had over £300m worth of players just on their bench <laugh>

They represent everything wrong with the modern game.

I like Kante though, he seems a properly decent bloke.

You're right. And we built it in an attempt to keep up with the teams who spend without limit and circumvent FFP via dodgy loans, shell companies and bent sponsorship deals.

If you have an alternative solution, I'm sure most football fans would be eager to hear it.

My honest opinion, it's stark raving bonkers to spend a billion quid on a football stadium, how on earth are you ever going to make that money back - well we know the answer, Americanisation and NFL. You sold your souls.

Sorry . You had money to burn , how else could you afford that stadium ?

It was NOT built solely with Spurs football club in mind .


Sour grapes should be swallowed in silence , or spat out in private .

Tbf it's not a one way stream. For every club out there willing to spend without limit, there's a Daniel Levy out there willing to take it.

Wrong, they built a billion pound stadium for NFL with the hopes of a future franchise.
Real football is just a sideline for their owners.

Football is just a sideline for most owners these days though. It certainly wasn't and isn't Abramovich's primary business. Same for the Mansours. Same for the new Toon owners. Same for FSG. Same for Kronke. Same for the Glazers.

This is the sad reality of the game today Diego and you're naive to assume it remains the exception rather than the rule.
