Onana would be excellent in our midfield, but not for £60m, I would go to £35-40 at a push

Before and After, it’s never changed, it’s restricted to 5 years but there is nothing stopping a club renewing a contact every year.

Yeah It is exactly right, that’s how it’s worked for over a decade , feel free to check up yourself in-fact here you go I will do the work for you

Thats incorrect, he signed a new contract after 4 years of his 5 1/2 year deal so the remaining amortisation is then spread over the new contract, Miggys book value is about around £4.1m.

Lee Ryder, bloke doesn’t know his arse from his elbow

Hes changed his tune there like, must be close to happening

Depends who we replace them with.

We have a new £35m+ revenue stream coming in the summer

His book value is £5.2m so if we got £12m that would allow us to spend around £30-35m on a player paying the same £120k a week wages.

It gives us room to spend in this window, until new revenue streams become available next year, it also allows us to spend £30-35m not £60m

Yeah for years I compared being a lions fan to being a toon fan. I think it’s a great looking stadium and like the way that all the prawn sandwich brigade are all in the same place

33 years old and getting more money than we paid for him, I would take it if he wants to go. Selling him would give us the ability to spend £35m on a player paying the same £120k a week wages.

This, I follow the Detroit Lions, have a look at Ford Field 65,000 seater (expandable to 70,000) and it only cost £700m, they have shit loads of corporate boxes, but the Vast majority of them are all on one side, I would love to see us do something like this so you don’t get the fans cut in half due to the boxes

I’m sure a lot would, the problem is, I’m pretty sure 1 club can’t challenge the PL rules and regulations (yes I know a rule can’t override the law) but I’m certain PL clubs must sign up to and abide by all rules and regulations the league sets out at the start of every season. when we got them to the hearing over the takeover, we got them that far because Ashley didn’t sign the rules and regulations at the start of that season, a mistake they will probably never let a club repeat. what I will say is though, I do think that is man city’s nuclear option if it looks like it’s going badly for them in the FFP case with the PL, a legal challenge to FFP for being anticompetitive

They also aren’t really trying to compete for the top, they seem happy to be in that second tier of PL clubs.

This is why I’m certain we will be moving stadium, it’s not the 50k normal fans that will make money , it’s the hospitality, Old Toilet and the emirates have double the hospitality we have, that’s where the money is.

Yeah sorry that’s right, it’s around £4.1m left, there are a few other factors as well, so it would be more like one £40m player and 1 £30m player

That will likely be looked at when it’s renewed for FMV

Missing Erickson off that list as well

Thats right and that’s where the adidas sponsorship comes in next season, we also have, Big Jo’s amortisation dropping off the rolling 3 year period, the problem everyone is running into now is the P&S figure hasn’t changed since 2013, so while selling a player for £30m a few years ago would balance your books for almost the whole 3 year rolling period, now selling a £30m player only balances the books for a season.

It is that easy and it’s the way it has worked since 2013, the problem is you can only spend what you earn allowing for a loss of up to £35m per year, our problem is we have started from such a low base due to lack of investment, meaning we’re maxed out on our amortisation and losses per year just trying to catch up, a sale of £30m player that has been here over 5 years(so no amortisation) means that £30m comes straight off in one big lump, academy players are also pure profit when sold(that’s what allowed Chelsea to spend so much)

transfer fees 2x 50m = £100m / 5 = £20m (per year amortisation) Wages per year £120k x 52 =£6.2m x2 = £12.4 Total of £32.4m miggy sale £30m transfer fee received (no amortisation left as over 5 years at club) wages saved £3.1m per year (£60k per week)

Not quite £150m as you need to take wages and agents fees into account, £30m would allow a spend of about 2 £50m players on £120k a week each over 5 years.

That’s not bad tbh

So we offer £50m now to get him early
