  1. Past hour
  2. The point of course to illustrate just how vast the gulf is between the two clubs, not to be taken literally. I think there will be those who’ll see Man Utd’s plight and think we’ve overtaken them - we haven’t, and they’ll be back at some point. They’re too big not to.
  3. That local pub team will be challenging as well considering they're closer to us financially apparently, wonder how PSR effects them? 🤔
  4. I could easily see clubs making a lot of money when broadcasting is brought in-house and they launch a Premier League "Netflix" for fans all over the world. Only issues there will be how you distribute the income and if the money will go straight through the clubs to players and agents.
  5. Think we could spend big, if it’s on a player or two we accept could be off the following summer or one after if they do well, and we’d be happy to sell for a profit. We now reaching the stage because of the limited youth players/kids, the signings we make have to be with a view that they could be off in 12/24 months.
  6. It was an xG massacre bobby.
  7. Wilson stays, we must be signing a young(ish) 2nd choice striker so they have some experience to work with on training ground.
  8. We've already battered Glimt to be fair. One of the worst teams we've played this season. Hojlund got a brace.
  9. I hope Spurs smash them just for those quotes.
  10. Don’t think anyone knows what the future financial landscape can end up as trends change. But say Man Utd don’t challenge Premier League in next 10 years, their finances may stay high, but everyone else will close in and overtake and theirs could be like 6th highest in Prem. Only way they mess up financially and do harm long term, is they have more seasons of wrong investment than have to take on a sizeable chunk of stadium debt. Ratcliffe won’t be there long term, and football clubs to be bought for say £3bn are not logical investments because of how much they cost to run to be competitive. So it’s then all the debt repayments needed to various people which if there’s an average billionaire in charge, would find very challenging.
  11. Spurs will win 2-1 at home and then lose 3-0 away. Spurs are absolute trash, as are you guys. Bilbao would wreck Glimt beyond recognition, though.
  12. Consistently stays like that for a bit, every chance the 18 Prem league may get voted through (with two down), because more sides will fancy their chances of never going down due to gulf in finances, and 18 sides means more wealth for them as there’s 2 less sides to give money too.
  13. The dude who was main footy kit designer for Nike 5-10 years ago is a Geordie and loves the toon. We’ve been pals since school When he was there he always said he would love to design our kit, but alas, twas not to be
  14. Stottie

    Alexander Isak

    Vardy and Jota were good finishers, but it doesn't look like it anymore. DCL is way below the line, which raises all kinds of alarms. Its easier to forgive Nico Jackson, because his pace/power will be creating some of the many opportunities he's had. Above the line, Wood and Welbeck are having great seasons in spite of their historic finishing abilities. Is the circle size minutes played?
  15. Spurs will batter them though.
  16. Today
  17. Can't go into a season in Europe with Isak, Wilson, and Osula. Isak goes down and the club are done in Europe, the cups, and the league. Just foolish. Don't think Howe is a fool.
  18. Watch Adam Pearson be the "influencer".
  19. The question would be 'where are the buyers?'. We're already at the point of nation states buying clubs. Who is going to pay 4bn for Chelsea? The club that Abramovich sold was English football's most successful club of the century to date, but they aren't Man Utd. 4bn is the purchase cost + what Boehly and co. has poured in to date. I'm just not seeing that happen - football clubs have tiny revenue streams (and profit potential) against their 'value'. Football clubs are not good investments at all.
  20. Ben

    Callum Wilson

    In a daft way I think a new Wilson deal must mean Howe has huge faith in Osula, no new striker to bring in and more cash to spend on RW CD and GK
  21. Spurs' income was over 200m more than ours when we had CL football and they didn't. The gulf is absolutely massive - and yes, they're losing money, in Spurs' case in part due to stadium costs. Man Utd are going absolutely nowhere when it comes to income - I think some are genuinely deluded if they think that Man Utd are going to suffer significant financial harm in the long run. They're a monster of a club, they have huge global reach - they'll be England's biggest club in 50 years time, never mind right now. Man Utd and Spurs are absolutely not dependent on European football - they aren't Leeds c.2002
