Feel sorry for him tbh

Stockholm Syndrome would be in 6 months time after the takeover you started missing Ashley

On a day ending with a 'y'

Our government don't think the Saudis are 'decent guys' at all. They know how awful their regime is, but they turn a blind eye and sell them weapons, which is arguably much worse.

:lol:

Is keeping Bruce for 5 points really worth it??! Just get rid. It would be such an anti climax to have him lead us out for our first game under new owners. He should be consigned to the history of Ashley's era. It might be better for the team if they don't disrupt things any more than the Covid virus already has. Just limp through this season and give it a fresh start for next season under new management and hopefully several new players.

I kind of feel the same way. I will watch from a distance, but that's about it.

this place will be a mess if we hear nothing official for a couple of weeks, especially with the lockdown still going on.

Does Mandy have a bit of a squint?

Did the purchase agreement not include an up front deposit as well?

Bought some absolute dogshit too. Hughes' City signings: Vincent Kompany - £7m Pablo Zabaleta - £6m Wayne Bridge - £12m (left on a free after contract expiry) Nigel de Jong - £18m (sold to AC Milan for £5m) Shay Given - £6m (sold to Aston Villa for £3.5m) Craig Bellamy - £14m (left on a free) Robinho - £32.5m (sold to AC Milan for £15m) Shaun Wright-Phillips - £9m (sold to QPR) Gareth Barry - £12m Joleon Lescott - £22m Kolo Toure - £16m (went on a free to Liverpool) Carlos Tevez - £47m (sold to Juve for £10m) Jo £19m - (signed for Internacional) Tal Ben Haim £6m Roque Santa Cruz £18m - (left at the end of his contract) Emmanuel Adebayor £25m - (sold to Spurs for £5m)

Hughes spent a fucking fortune in that time as well

They won't trust Bruce with big monies. Get shot at the end of the season imo, give him a traditional Saudi send off.

Fuck sake, I'm boycotting Ramadan

I don't know how to handle all this joy and optimism We usually aren't allowed nice things

No doubt some will for bantz

If these new owners are wanting to throw serious money at the club as we hope, no chance Bruce is staying imo. They will want their own man with a proven track record of winning trophies.

Isn't that the UAE flag?

800M in two years

How many morally sound individuals are multi billionaires and in the market to buy football clubs? Probably none, let's be honest. Football is fucked, but at least we can enjoy it again.

Imagine if the PL had higher moral standards than the actual British government

Is that necessarily a good thing? Does she have any experience of running a football club? I know we don't really care at this point, but still.

:lol: not enough love for this

It normally takes 2 weeks iirc. The 4 weeks is due to everything going on. Ah, that's good news
