Well one thing we all can agree on is we will know this summer if we have any transfer money
I believe we have and have argued that Benzema for example was too much and not keen, but regardless of the point of view they ( the owners ) will have to spend.
If they dont we have no money - their investment will suffer if they do not reassure/placate the fans with another 50 million or so being spent. Will be interesting this summer |

Re: Well one thing we all can agree on is we will know this summer if we have any transfer money
I've read before - no idea if it's true or not - that their business plan is based around a top four finish and getting as far as a Champions League quarter final.
If that is true then there's not a great deal of spending required to ensure that, it could even be argued the current squad could achieve that without any spending at all. But then again we've just had a season in which we were one game away from playing the maximum games possible, winning the PL, the League Cup and CL finalists ... but still needed to sell a player for a world record fee in order to make a profit. It's like we can't afford to spend, but at the same time we can't afford not to? As you say, it will be interesting this summer. |

They have a prime excuse lined up in the world cup. No doubt they'll trot out some old shit about not having enough time because all the players are in africa and the prices being bumped up etc etc.

The club won't do something normal, like, you know, maybe try and get signings done before the World Cup, oh no. Just wait for the excuses after the World Cup. |

I don't think they can go another season with all the speculation, and no big signings. I'm expecting the worst though, i just have this image of it getting to 3 weeks before the season and Fergie saying, plain faced 'the squads matured, we couldnt really see any areas where we need to strengthen, Hargreaves and Anderson are back which is a massive boost, and Macheda and Diouf are really shining in training' Its at that point where the shit will really start to hit the fan.

Re: Well one thing we all can agree on is we will know this summer if we have any transfer money
It's sad to think that our owners are only in it for the money, that they care nothing about success unless it brings in more money, that they care even less about the fans, unless it loses them money. We could be a shoe sellers for all they care, it's wouldn't nake any difference to them.
Yes, we've all known it for a long long time, but it's still sad... |

There's a £75m overdraft facility. They can spend what they want. It won't mean there's money in the bank.
What's more important is the transfer policy. We now only buy big at a young age so we can sell on before the player is over the hill. That controls who we buy and who we sell surely? So who's for the door while they are still worth something? |

Or kitchen surface manufacturers? Or fish oil producers? Or airbag makers? Or an old down-at-heel oil company? You're right. They don't give a shit as long as there's money to be made. |
