I reckon we'll wrap up 3-4 soon. Then I reckon there could be another one or two on deadline day once club weigh up the balance sheets. I'm going into deadline day with the ludicrous hope that one of Izak or Nunes will be announced in some absurd £50m+ deal.

How does FFP work though if you are moving between leagues? As they are two different organisations (PL and EFL) they can't take action against you if you are not a member of that organisation the following year. So if we only spend 1 year in the Championship the EFL wouldn't be able to sanction us.

Assuming, as I currently do, that we are about 80% likely to be relegated (due to our current points and squad and remaining games compared to other lower-half clubs), I think FFP is less of a threat than an EPL rule change about who can be in the Prem club…. a majority of EPL club-****s could readily be persuaded to vote in favour of a “any club more than 60% owned by a state investment fund must either change it’s ownership or be rejected from membership of the EPL” - it’s a private club is the EPL, they can set their own rules for actually joining in… it’s not state owned, it can do business with who it likes.

My understanding of the argument that was had before PIF were allowed in, was it was based on whether - under existing EPL rules the PIF could be prevented from acquiring NUFC AND continuing to play in the Prem. It wasn’t simply “PIF aren’t allowed to buy in”

it was “PIF can of course buy in, but they can’t play in our League if they do”

rule changes could prevent a quick NUFC promotion while legal arguments were had for 3 years.

It's looking good... Cranking it up now..

Clubs need the money they're merely doing what they should which is try to squeeze a bit more out of nufc and nufc are trying to reduce the amount.

I would bet my house there's at least one more than will come out of nowhere much like Bruno.


Alot of noise made in other areas while they quietly went after who they really wanted.

The Cantwell transfer went quiet and he’s hardly kicked a ball for Norwich.

Lingard wants to come but manu are being arses.

I’ve read somewhere that some premier league clubs are contacting the clubs of players we are trying to sign and saying don’t do business with us or putting in fake bids to increase the price and put us off. What a load of bollocks.
