Consortium of one

When he hit his form he played really well for us. Best of luck, Mo!

You reap what you sow. Some of those journalists were falling all over themselves writing and tweeting conflicting info.

This American has his ear to the ground and his head in the weeds. But when I take a 1000 foot view I see that the deal will be unofficially announced tomorrow and officially announced on Tuesday, although the process will go on for a few more weeks as previously alluded too. The key is Rafa. If they can get his quick buy in, he can start the heavy lifting and bring players in. Low hanging fruit first, then drill down for more. I'll circle back as I get updates.

June 10th isn't a Tuesday Mine goes to 11

Will be confirmed (unoficially officially) on Friday. Will be formally announced on Tuesday June 10

should be getting an affirmative any moument now...

Monochrome Acquisitions I WANT TO BELIEVE

FAIL

New owner or not I'll be gutted if he leaves.

How about renaming it "Gails baps" instead? Howay, ffs. Jesus H Christ. That's an assault of the senses, man.

Lucas Perez from West Ham to Alaves for 2.2M. Didn't Rafa want him?

Does it have a proper fireplace for vomiting?

Charnley probably made a bunch of fake Twitter under his overlord's orders. Winds everyone up until Rafa leaves almost unnoticed...

Darlow and Woodman will be between Scylla and Charibdis

So when will Mbappe, Hazard and Modric sign?

IMO, the only group that looks like total assholes is the media. They're falling all over themselves for attention and clicks.

I'd like to see what Rafa can do with solid financial backing for players and infrastructure.

Don't know where I saw it but didn't someone tweet that the club had confirmed that a price had been agreed?

My head hurts

I don't think MA is adroit enough to develop a long term strategy and stick with it. What's SD done in the Far East? I see a dreamer who bulls his way to short term results and then loses interest in his projects. I swear it is only his ego that has kept him from selling the club years ago. He knows he didn't do his due diligence when he bought the club, he felt he was duped, and he wants to feel like he got a premium when he sells on.

right and there are probably 5-6 incoming transfers lined up, too.

It's a mad kind of contract that needs that, wonder if it's even possible to draft and/or enforce. you'd have to stipulate what the spend can be for each window (assume 50m + player sales) and then if one side disagrees to the total, have a mechanism for audit and mediation because we know Fat Bastard will try to move the goalposts.

If he signs on there will have to be offset language: if Fat Mike doesn't provide x, Rafa can fuck off for y.

i think the longer it takes, the less likely it is to happen.
