Matt1892 Posted January 20, 2024 Share Posted January 20, 2024 I am comfortable with this one either way and would have no issue leaving it to Trippier to decide, we already have his replacement and I wouldn’t stop him from making the move if that is what he wanted.

I mean, I know it's not the most complex subject (although the guy in that tweet has got it wrong), but fuck me, I watch football because I like football, not to have to think about finance all the time. It's nuts, really. What this fanbase has become experts in over the last few years is ridiculous. Least you've not had to approach Geopolitical expertise just to support the club you were born next to. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted January 20, 2024 Share Posted January 20, 2024 I will hold absolutely no grudge against him if he, at 33, had a chance to go win the German league and compete for trophies there for 1 or 2 seasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rafalove Posted January 20, 2024 Share Posted January 20, 2024 Think we’d be crazy to consider this for anything less than an extortionate fee. Despite his recent form he’s a very good player and a very important part of our dressing room. I can imagine Ritchie, and maybe Lascelles will leave in the summer, selling three of players from our leadership group would be risky. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, there’s not really a thing as unnecessary profit. Even if it’s not needed for the current three year period, it’s granting future flexibility on losses. More details here: Only useful if they want to spend now. If they dont want to, it is unnecessary for the 3 year rolling period ending 2024 as by all accounts we're good. Might as well then have the benefit in years 2025, 2026, 2027. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erikse Posted January 20, 2024 Share Posted January 20, 2024 (edited) 2 hours ago, Memphis said: 2. We sell Trippier for a nice fee and the players immediately get upset, thinking that the project is stalling, and the future here isn't as bright as they expected. Other players start to see their heads being turned by offers and they start to doubt whether or not this is the right project for them. The rest of the season dwindles away in a sea of rumour and discontent and the summer is a reclamation project as we have to rebuild not only players but also attitudes. This sounds like the type of conspiracy theory that the media would try to push just to get clicks. The players will know what's going on, and why. They are professionals, and they are not stupid. Do you have any example of players getting upset and fleeing a club because they sold an ageing teammate? Edited January 20, 2024 by Erikse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know if we're good and, based on all the noises from the club, how we structured Hall, etc., it's obviously pretty tight. We know we need to be profitable in the 2023/24 accounts. We also don't know where we're going to finish in the PL, which can be a decent amount of revenue. The difference between 6th and 10th is almost £9m. But let's say we are good right now and on track for a £15m profit. If we were to do something that increases that to, say, £30m then it gives us an extra £15m buffer (for losses) in 2024/25 and 2025/26. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, the original point was how would a loan benefit us, and my answer was predicated on us being on target for 3 years ending 2024. On that basis it is true and I'm sure it is tight, and frankly no one has any clue where we'll end up, BUT, if they have forecasted (and they'll be revisiting on a monthly basis for several different scenarios) that we'll be OK as is, then might as well take the revenue to benefit 2025, 2026 AND 2027, not just 2 years.

If you expect players to stay just to be loyal to their club in 2024, then I'm sorry, but that doesn't really happen anymore. They will stay if they feel like that's the best thing for them and their family in their current situation, or if the club can convince them to stay until the next window or something like that (or even force them to stay, but that can be risky).
