Paints a pretty accurate picture.

 

The wages have also dropped off substantially over that period (spare some of the earlier signings).

Looks like he's halfway there then. Only 3½ years of this cunt before he recoups his cash and fucks off :lol:

 

 

Since putting the club on the market the first time he's closer to £55million in profit on the transfer market.

Thank you HF.

 

I predict come September that figure will be up to £65-70m

 

Hatem is an expensive signing looking at what's been spent the last 2 years. Can't imagine him spending much more than that ever again, despite the record fee.

Happy face has learnt from Leazes Mags bitter experience. Have all the facts and figures at hand so that when your moment comes to bask in the warm glory of being right, there will be no vague he said, she said, 99%....... etc etc :lol:

You should be highlighting the contradiction between my 2 posts this morrning. How can I complain about the size of the debt AND how little we'be spent? It's idiocy.

I'm only really interested in the here and now tbh, not what happened four years ago or even longer in Leazes case.

 

One group will view this thread , stupidly, as Ashley making a personal profit. Another will see it as his lack of ambition and another will see it as necessary actions during a very turbulent time when the club was losing money hand over fist.

 

Most fans are probably only interested in whether we can add to the excellent business that was Cabaye and whether we can hang onto Enrique, Barton and Nolan and star next season stronger than last.

I learned all my "lessons" in the 1980's pal. Selling your best players and replacing them with sub standard replacements, in the name of "good business", doesn't work.

 

Mickey Mouse stuff.

Wasn't Tiote £3.5m? Also the January Championship transfers were undisclosed iirc, i'd be amazed if they were on bang on £1m. Your point still stands though regardless

I must have woken in a decent mood this morning due to it being Little Armchair's 1st birthday - looking at those figures a lot of it appears to be pretty 'good business', certainly heading towards this fabled Arsenal model of bringing on players and selling them for considerably more than bought, plus it would seem we haven't been letting too many players go for pennies like we used to. However... the footballing side of the team has deteriorated as a result of the players coming in not always being of the quality to support the progression of the team while achieving the first point. The problem we have is that we need a larger squad of players of higher potential otherwise we end up just being a selling club that gets nowhere.

1. You didn't even know who he was the other week

2. You haven't even seen him play, he could turn out to be a flop

3. You talk out of your arse

 

Can we get this daft shites name and avatar changed please, he's blatantly taking the piss now?
