Ayatollah Hermione 13856 Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 (edited) Charlie Austin hasn’t travelled with Southampton to wherever it is they’re going. I’d take him. Just saw that Erik Pieters is off to Burnley. I’m amazed we didn’t go in for him, he was TOP TOON TARGET at one point wasn’t he?

Howay 12496 Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 I really don’t understand Ashley. If he lets the club sign some players it’s not money out of his pocket, so if the takeover went ahead it’s no loss to him. That way if (tbh when) the takeover doesn’t happen the club are in a more manageable position. As things stand we’ll be finishing bottom (imo it’ll be a similar season to Huddersfield last season), sure he’ll then stupidly blame the takeover for why no one was signed but that doesn’t help the bottom line of the club in any way so really it’s a pointless excuse.

In some ways I’ve always thought Ashley being owner basically absolves most of the players of any sort of accountability. This isn’t a conventionally run top flight club. It’s an advertising hoarding for a chain of shitty shops with some highly inconvenient football tagged on to the side. That’s why Joselu gets a pass. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noelie 103 Posted July 8, 2019 Share Posted July 8, 2019 It would appear that we are the one and only Premier League team that has NOT signed a new player yet FFS. Must admit NUFC are akin to a mystery novel, a comic book, and a whodunnit non-fiction journal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
