Yeah I’m not grotesquely stupid, every business in the world has limits on spending, NUFC are no different. However, the notion that it’s as well defined as 60-80m plus incoming from sales is naive at best. They’ve been fed that line multiple times before and they go for it every time.

sushimonster85 Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 FFP is the deciding factor, but even the most cautious/pessimistic journos (Edwards, Hope etc) have come out and said they're hearing at least 100m, likely closer to 150m. Which feels about right given we were supposedly pushing our FFP limit, but then got CL and a vastly increased sponsorship deal. I do think this will be the last 'big' window for a couple years. Think at the end of the Summer they will be hoping to have a squad that can consistently challenge for top 4. Once we've spent a few seasons in Europe/brought in more sponsor deals/new kit manufacturer etc I can then see them going again to get the squad into a position where it can push for the league.

Aye it makes no sense at all. £150m is just code for "a decent window" really Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course it’ll be defined, man. Will it be advertised to journalists? No, but how can you successfully navigate a transfer window when you don’t know your budget?

So about £640m - not a bad return (so far) on a £350m investment, even factoring in a £70m loss in the first full accounting year. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A half decent performance in Europe and a solid domestic campaign and I don't see why not, assuming we add some assets in the summer/January. West Ham are just over $1bn - do they own their stadium or do they just lease it? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted May 31, 2023 Share Posted May 31, 2023 Guess getting some money for no work might be considered better than loads more money for some more work. Ashley obviously prefers the former. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's usually a gang of West Ham, Everton, Aston Villa and Leicester (for Leicester it's obvious why not now) below the top 6. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
