Armchair Pundit Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I don't know, since the takeover fell through I've just lost pretty much all interest in the club. I can't do yet another season of pointless, unambitious rubbish under Ashley. I mean, I keep an eye out on the occasional bit of news perhaps and pop on to here every now and again but it just feels like supporting the team is a complete and utter waste of time. I hold out some vague hope that there might be something still in the pipeline and that's why it's all gone quiet but I'm not holding my breath, gone is my ridiculous optimism.

ED209 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Fuckin hell are people now suggesting a deal has been done and new owners are buying these players Mental I don’t think that, I think Ashley maybe thinks that the wages won’t be his liability soon so he is happy to pay them for a period.

Tsunami Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 The takeover is still in the background ‘cos is we’ve signed 2 frees, a much needed left back and a cheap centre forward who actually plays there and may get 10 goals over the season? Nah, this is Ashley trying to avoid relegation and hoping some new buyer comes in. If he did get the £18M deposit he’s got 4 players in for minimal expenditure. If Fraser and Wilson combine as they can and ASM and Almiron are played properly we might just be ok. Joelinton should spend most of the season on the bench which might just do him some good, he may get some game time as a No10 behind Wilson or on the wing when ASM is injured. We should never see him up top again (prays for a loan striker to come in as well). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitley mag Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Anyone thinking Ashley’s 18 million deposit has gone anywhere but his back pack pocket are deluded, this is money from the clubs own income. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 £17m of which was generated by a non-refundable deposit paid by Amanda Staveley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 That £17m surely went straight to the owner, not the club? If I put a fiver deposit down for a toaster, the fiver is given to the owner of the toaster, not the toaster itself? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjohnson Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I mean we are hardly going above and beyond we were told the transfer budget was £35m. By all accounts we’ve spent £34m Well there's clearly some deception somewhere. If the common belief holds that the budget includes wages then that 35m is long gone, pending sales. Alternatively the 35m figure was plucked from nothing to keep up the pretence of being perennially skint, which doesn't hold true either since newly promoted Leeds can go and blow 27 on a single player. Or as someone suggested there's a significant sale coming from somewhere...and that suggests StMax as he's the only one that could probably be moved for a decent profit on initial outlay Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I meant sales plus players that have left. he was on a lot of money which Wilson or Fraser’s wages will now replace.
