I think we'll sign Arthur and Daley. Maybe a winger but not sure who...

What's the net spend since they took over pal?

Is it true we've spent less / in line with (than) Stoke and Sunderland since they took over?

Did we sell the best player in the world and replace him with obertan, Owen and Valencia?

Have we really £#%&!ed £700 million on servicing debt.

£#%&!ing glazer apologist.

Haven't required major, major surgery like us.

And if they did, they'd spend as much as it takes to get them challenging for the major trophies.

Their owners have footballing aspirations not commercial ones.

Yeah we require major surgery because we £#%&!ing wasted most of the money we have spent.

And why was that then?

Speculative punts because "there was no value in the market" as we had more important matters of paying off the PIK's.

£#%&! the football.

Well, yeah, but also because Froggleson lost his £#%&!ing marbles and forgot midfield even exists.

Yep and he was the one covering for the Glazers.

Wonderful owners eh?!

Really pisses me off - we have a world class manager and if we were able to spend some of the money we self generate, we could piss this league.

Now that I agree with. We need to buy bigger, but also smarter. Woodward's constant drivel about marquee signings terrifies me tbh.

That's just to keep our "official partners" happy, one suspects.

You can certainly see why Stringer Bell was the brains behind the finances.

really doubt that very much to be honest.

Stoke and Sunderland outspent us in one season iirc

last 5 years net spend table
http://transferleague.co.uk/league-t...e-seasons.html

According to this we've spent 4x that of Stoke, and ~8x that of sunderland.

not sure where you got your figures?

Maybe that's been affected since the mata and felliani signings. They were certainly ahead of us until recently though.

Here's one for Atticus and his beloved Glazers....

We've spent £690 million on servicing debts since they took over.

Imagine if that was invested in the football team?

A few years out of date but my main point still stands.
