Why haven't they opened selling season tickets again? They should have been available to buy within an hour of winning the play-offs!
People would have bought them whilst they were on a high!
I'd assume they'll leave it in the trust/shell company for a while until all the FFP talk has died down after a couple of years of being in the Premier League.
Transfer the stadium back quietly once last season drops out of the 3 year cycle.
exactly.
ambition this season is to survive if possible.
History suggests that its unlikely we survive, but we will try and subvert expectations by finishing 17th.
And expectations need to be realistic when we’re possibly 19th after 10 games played.
17th is our target for this season, anything higher is just a bonus.
So once the loanees go back and the 2019 contracts expire, are we left with just these first team players?
Kalinik
Steer
Nyland
Chester
Taylor
Elmohamady
De Laet
Bree
Hourihane
McGinn
Lansbury
Bjarnason
Tshibola
Grealish
McCormack
Kodjia
Hogan
Adomah
Davis
Green
It’s possible, but almost near impossible.
Even Man Utd are struggling to break into the top 4 and they have spending power that dwarfs us plus a great base of a team.
We would have to overtake Arsenal and Man Utd to get anywhere near that top 4.
Yes, I think this is where Purslow will need to excel.
Now that we are back in the Premier League, we will get back to being top 30 brand names in European football... but are currently far behind those top 15-20.
