Believe it when I see it. This is the tories afterall.

It'll end up in court, and the whole football world will listen. Weve seen it with Marc bosman and Webster, these rules aren't legally binding. We're setting it up, have been from the start, and now we've onboarded a few more clubs and media to fight our battle for us. At the moment, living in our means suits us. It stops clubs taking a total lens on us while we grow a bit organically. Eventually though we'll want to push through the ceiling and the legal groundwork will have been done to do so. I reckon the PL and eufa will fold a little and the sustainability rules loosened with inflation as the reason. This will allow us to operate slightly higher but it's only a stay of execution. Ffp is coming to an end, they've done all they can to protect the top 6, it can't go on forever.

Clarke has a 45% sell on fee and ballard is not far of at 35%. That's just to the clubs, not including anything to the player. Get £17m for Clarke, which is more than fair, they'll end up seeing about £6m, and that's if it's all upfront. Neill, patterson and Rigg are pure profit, those are the deals they need to make for a rebuild, Ballard & Clarke will simply be moving on as the model always suggested.

10pts behind with 10 games to go. 10 less pts puts them in a relegation place. Season is over.

Asian ref? Gonna love that in chicken town.

Apparently it's been agreed, will be announced today or tomorrow. Makes me think was Ashworth delaying it on purpose so manure could get him on the cheap or free the year after.

Well they just copied what I posted months ago. Cheeky twats.

With the RVI and give nurses footballers wages.

He's got the things you cannot teach, and is missing the things a good coach and the right attitude provide. He's about as much as an exciting prospect as you can get.

Not be long before it'll be a decade outside the PL and yet they'll still be telling themselves they are massive and don't belong, it's just a blip, and all of football wants them back in the top flight for being canny lads. The bitterness and jealousy has grown beyond manic, especially since the derby and rolling out the red carpet to their superiors. Easily the most damaging season since Burton relegated them to league one on Netflix. Ballard and Clarke off in the summer, probably followed by anything that isn't nailed down. Bellingham blocking the progress of Rigg, who seems to be the better player already, and Rigg won't be hanging around making the same mistake twice. He'll be a decade long reminder of what was lost when he's winning games in the CL in his chosen B&W stripes alongside Miley, while telling themselves he's shite and a sellout. Their future is glorious, for us anyway.

Yella ones. BTW, Nissan painted the grass yellow as a promo. Good luck for pay negs this year when pleading poverty.

Next N-O meet attire?

Needs a 'You'll do for me...' on the top right. Then its a £££ magnet.
-
He's probably right though. The top 3 benefit the most, and at least he's pinpointing Arsenal.

Everton - Pts deduction (with another coming) Forest - pts deduction (because they didn't bow down and sell their star player on the cheap by a specific date) Citeh - so many charges they cant charge them Chelsea - massively foul and only time till they are done. Villa - have to sell to stay with ffp for daring to show an ounce of ambition NUFC - Owned by the richest company in the world and couldn't sign a single player during their worst injury crisis since records began Wolves - Skirting around the edges of a breach, couldn't sign players. Add the likes of Palace now saying they can't sign players, surely someone needs to pull the rug from under FFP before it ruins the sport any further.

Most likely true since Purslow seems now be on our side after years of demonising the takeover.
-
Unwound 14 years worth of damage in 2 years, even with this season not going to plan.
-
Yup. This is what I said last year when this all came out. We have the plan now. The club knows what elite looks like. Of course if would be nice of him to be the one to implement it, but we have everything in place or know where to head. A succession plan for every key person in the business will be in place. Whether internal step ups, or external targets. The lists will be there, what a person needs to develop, and what support is required. I still find it mad to think he's leaving this to walk into the mad mess that is manure. The power struggles between ownership, those who still haunt the corridors, and the insane expectations. I think he'll live to regret it.

End of the day, Nickson has seen us at our worst, seen us transitioning, and now worked with someone who themselves commands £20m fees. The club have seen him in action from the start, and seen what Ashworth has brought to the table. If they've decided he's good enough for the step up, or move into a new role, then just accept it as a good move.
