Colocho Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 But there's also the worldwide promotion of Sports Direct to consider... A £200m promotion campaign? I wouldn't deny he's using his power to get all he can and being a bit of dick about it but I'm not sure that's his primary motivation. How much does the club owe him?

oldtype Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Why would he want worldwide promotion for a brand that only exists in England and how would he accomplish that through a club that's very sparsely supported outside it's own city? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wullie Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 If we do these good things, he'll sell off the best players in January and next summer though. Rinse and repeat. Do you reckon Tiote will leave this summer? If a sizable bid comes in then yes. Same goes for Colo and neither will still be here in twelve months time.

If Tiote was available for around £6m clubs would be all over it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hudson Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Why would he want worldwide promotion for a brand that only exists in England and how would he accomplish that through a club that's very sparsely supported outside it's own city? SD is not just a UK based company and has a fair few branches on mainland europe. The club is supported the world over, with every club's games being on a TV somewhere in the world.
