Or rich twats in Jakarta with an army of servants

 

I don't have large piles of cash - apparently my Mrs does though.

 

she has the cash you have the piles.

 

Yeah, but investors have cash. In addition, most clubs run with an element of competence and create cashflow from marketing and commercial deals. We pay about £150k a year to Lee Charnley.

Not my club anymore. Hasn't been for 14 years.

 

Ye on the wrong board then mate

 

Yeah it was clear last year that Ritchies legs have gone at PL level. Also correct that Wilson is far better than what we have. He was on the fringes of the England squad for a reason. We have to be realistic about our situation for me, and he improves our squad. Won't happen though, he'll have better options. Him and Fraser would be good signings for us. Fraser an ideal replacement for Ritchie to provide competition in the wide areas. Basically pretty similar but mobile.

 

Wilson is a good signing - I haven't heard anything about it tho.

I dont think it will happen - Fraser yes. It makes sense he'll want to play near Scotland.

 

I see most NUFC staff, including the scouting dept, will remain on Furlough til end of October.

 

Good hopefully it will improve things.

Ashley has benefited from the takeover saga on terms of his actions regards his staff and keeping stores open during lock down.. He was for the 1st time ever getting criticism from rest of the countries media

 

King Solomon had piles of gold..

 

Ahh, so that explains our transfer targets.

They're very Brucey because he's actually picking them.

 

I have to say I did think it looked very much like he was picking the targets, but surely the scouts can still make calls etc

 

If he is, they're better shouts than our usual targets.

Like, actually negotiating with British talent, premier league experience and available? Shocking for NUFC

 

Just got a notification about it.

£25 Million and Matt Ritchie, will always remember Ritchie fondly. Getting too old for the Prem now but, he was a fighter, loyal and scored one or two nice goals.

If he leaves, good luck to him

 

Hmmm I dunno I'll wait and see before passing judgement.. I was on here expressing concern about Joelinton this time last year.. Maybe I'm a negative **** who just gets lucky or maybe it's best to see how well they play

 

We're paying 25 million plus ritchie for wilson??

 

You want a striker right?

 

Isn't he 29?

Jesus christ either Mike ashley is spending Saudi money or that's not the price

 

I reread it, says "deal worth up to £25M."

Presuming you won't get more than £5M for Ritchie MAXIMUM. Then some bonuses and the like, it won't be anywhere near 25M cash in hand.

 

Still seems steep.. Remember Ashley bulked at 16 million euros for rondon and he bagged 11 or 12..
