At some point and some how the shackles will come off as there is too much vested interest at stake (I’d like to think). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Media reports that’s it been agreed would appear to be wide of the mark. Posted a couple of years ago about a company I work with being approached for the front of shirt sponsorship that ultimately went to Sela. They weren’t overly interested - and it felt rather scattergun, which I assumed was in part trying to benchmark interest to pass the requisite PL ‘fair value test’. Nevertheless they are being actively being courted now for the training [kit] sponsorship with a couple of preliminary meetings in early December. Don’t have the figure they are looking for, but it would suggest the club really are at a pretty nascent stage still. Interestingly unlike last time it’s not been led by what was a New York based agency but via the in-house commercial team. Which hopefully talks to an increase in the sophistication of the function.

JigsawGoesToPieces Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 All gone very quiet on the CEO recruitment front, considering Eales announced he was stepping down end of Sept id be expecting an announcement on his successor soon surely, considering they will have to serve notice or gardening leave. Wonder if the plan is for Eales to step away and new person to take over in the summer Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wonder if the plan is for Eales to step away and new person to take over in the summer Considering the seriousness of DE's illness I hope we're not keeping him on for any longer than is necessary. The guy needs to focus on receiving proper treatment instead of being in the firing line for another hectic transfer period with radgies having a go at him and Paul Mitchell for failing to recruit whomever they think we should be buying.

Just like pretty much every high profile board appointment? You'd think people would have realised by now that we do our business behind closed doors. I'm not saying you are, but people seemingly want to criticise the club for not discussing their targets (be it staff or players) openly with the media.

mighty__mag Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Of those who will be out of contract, who will likely be offered new deals. 2025: Wilson, Krafth, Lascelles, Dubravka, Longstaff, Gillespie, Ruddy, Schar, Lewis. Based on all the PSR nonsense, are we looking at Longstaff and Scar as definitely, perhaps Krafth? Apologies if already discussed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longstaff isn't over in the summer we reportedly triggered a year extension so it's 18months left. My biggest concern is rumour has it howe wanted to keep Dummett and Ritchie but only let them go as manu get the European spot so if that happens again and we do get Europe next season do we try and keep all of them? We need to move on from these fringe player/cheerleader players save the wages and invest but it's the constant circle of how do you find the replacements when they are going for free and you need to find the outlay in full for replacements.

Wallace Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Longstaff’s contract was extended to protect his value. Some of the local journos have said that he is available for transfer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stifler Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 So they are trying to distance themselves from us as they are not being bought by the Saudi state, however someone has found that the people involved have worked closely with the government on projects, and family members have been in government roles.
