That'll be half of this forum if we don't sign some fucka soon.

Patient pick up from bamburgh ward at st nicks to Rampton.

No - can't give Chelsea another penny

Kudus seems good value at 60M if that's what it is. He's better than Pedro. Lots of dribbly action for anyone fretting about us not beating a low block. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2025/jun/30/west-ham-open-to-tottenham-offer-for-mohammed-kudus

But if the related party transactions has previously been voted against then that means it's active, for it to be reversed it would require 14 clubs to vote to scrap, which would never happen

PSR died as a serious concept with the hurried passing of the APT rules and the reason for them. It was then it became obvious to everyone it's purpose was to protect some clubs at the expense of others.

Hahahaha hahahaha Alpine enter F1 races.

Villas mess was around £200m,So selling the womens team still means they are fucked?

I’m not blaming Villa at all it’s within the rules but the way their fans are celebrating getting round PSR is very distasteful to me

Didn't Villa vote against us, City, Forest etc. on the related party transactions thing? I seem to remember that vote carrying something like 15 to 5, but if Villa, I dunno maybe Leeds, can be drawn over to the dark side, the Premier League will no longer have the 14 votes it needs to prolong the "craven to the Sky 6" status quo we have at the moment. I think we only need one or two more clubs to switch sides for the voting situation to change.

That would be fair, so the cartel clubs wont vote it in..

What about Mikautadze at Lyon not sure what happened when he went to Ajax? but been banging them in since returning to France. Looks the type of player who can play across the front line and Lyon might be ripe for the taking at the minute.

Dont believe Wirtz is on £200k.

“Then it will be here we go”

Is Samu still tearing it up at Porto?

Chelsea seem determined to not do it the easy way, which would be to buy a top top striker. If you have an effton of money, my advice would be to not have a defensive midfielder as your and pretty much the league's record signing. Buy a twenty goal a season striker. If you can afford Caicedo, Enzo, and Mudryk (sp?), all 100M plus?, you can afford better than Joao Pedro, half of whose goals were pens.

I’m all for financial controls but PSR is a rigged system to keep the status quo. Bring in a maximum squad cost (transfers, salaries, bonuses and agent fees) that can be spent by all clubs not this system where the historically wealthy/succesful get to spent unlimited sums compared to the rest. To safeguard clubs against unscrupulous owners make it a rule that only a certain percentage can be debt finance and a plan is submitted six monthly to the league to show how these debts will be repaid. If you want to go above the debt cap then you can spend owners money but this can’t be a loan against the club.

Fairs. We’re actually better than them. But we run out of legs and bodies. There’s a good chance they improve again and get 74+ points. Don’t rate Maresca mind.

Shagger’s ganning Doon the Toon

Would definitely take, very different to Elanga though. Definitely needs to improve decision making and end product but has all the talent.

Two years ago, he was great and helped seal fourth. His goals to minutes played was up with anyone in the league. Last year we had PSR issues and injuries all across the squad, so I understand him being kept, even if there was some decline and definitely long absences from Wilson. He now looks a shadow of himself, it does look like the injuries have finally taken their toll, so it doesn't look like he can contribute at the level we need.

He's a terrible option as backup striker, did you not see his performances last season?

Aaaggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

It’s not that he is a bad option as a backup striker. It’s just due to the extension is a result of a series of fucking shamble transfer failures that makes us sad
