Stifler Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 A week since we come out saying that we are building a new multi billion pound stadium and they put the doom feelers out. 6 weeks ago PIF increased their stake in the club and ousted owners owners who couldn’t keep up the pace of investment. It’s just a load of guff to fill newspaper space/gain clicks. Everyone knows why we haven’t went out and bought Mbappe and fought off Real Madrid for new players.

Danh1 Posted August 24 Share Posted August 24 Been a poor transfer window so far, but that aside, I don’t see anything that would suggest anything but ambition? Some key off the field appointments this summer, the comments from one of them talking about moving up here from Manchester because of the ambition… PSR is a cunt, surely that bubble will burst at some point.

There was a multi page discussion about it a couple of weeks ago in the St James' Park thread. I see the usual desperate mackem cunts have for their usual multi page thread building up now.
