  1. Interesting link and I support your principal. What I take issue with is this... If clubs thought they could get away with it they would do no one accepts a 49m fine if they do t have to pay it.
  2. when you say good authority... what do you mean? Someone I know very well who works at Oracle and who has no reason whatsoever to lie. He's a well respected, middle aged guy who had forgotten I was a Villa fan so it would be a pretty random thing to make up. With anything like this though, there is no way of me proving it, I'm only passing on something I heard and it's the first time i've ever been privvy to any juicy villa news. Tenuous or not. My dads a VP at Oracle and he hasn't said a word to me about it and he genuinely has contact with Ellison
  3. Not really sure where this debate is going. The fact is that the owner gave him a remit and one can only assume he has met it
  4. Errr I am calling WHAT THE F***? Not allowed to play him for years plays 4 games well and gets a new 3 year deal. Seriously this deserves CLEAR clarification on why he wasn't played.
  5. He may be running about but he won't be 95% for a month
  6. I wasn't I was just passing comment on the comment before. I agree you should never write a cheque if the deal isn't right.
  7. Last seen writing an 8m cheque that was never sent to the bank
  8. You can call it grumpy I call it realistic I can't be arsed with the moaning that happens likewise after losing 3 in a row to top 6 teams
  9. Were 4 games in lets not go over board let's see what we have after 12 games
  10. E the type if injury he has takes ages to heal properly sorry for the pun. He isn't fit yet.
  11. Not necessarily. If the cups are won by teams who finish in the Champions League places then you can qualify in 7th. Us finishing 7th might be very unlikely but it's not impossible. I would say it's near on impossible imo, the top 7 picks itself tbf. I agree
  12. http://freepressjournal.in/revolutionary-belgian-lawyer-setting-sight-to-change-uefas-ffp-rules/ He has a point, interesting to follow. Old story heard about it already I thought myself the legal challenges would come in after the big fines but all the clubs accepted it and I think that tells you all you need to know
  13. Exactly which leads you back to the rules we can't spend more than x to get a winning team so we need to do it without spending what we would like right now. No point moaning about it but if we want to progress we should stop the moaning as it can't change right now and that will help having a united supporter base. I'm all up for selling naming rights to make some cash but i fear even for that we need to be more successful
  14. Fans need to get real we work in a world of three year losses now and ours is huge. If we want to spend more and we all do we have to earn more it's that simple. I hope fox manages this
  15. Yea the money may still be there for another player come January.
  16. Have you seen the three year loss?
  17. Don't think anyone would argue any other way. But we've had an entire transfer window. We shouldn't be one of the lowest spending teams in the league. When you see the three year loss plus the owner selling it is to be expected
  18. It's a shame but he simply ain't interested.
  19. He isn't moving they have said so on sky all day
  20. Has it really been that bad?Compared to the last few? No. Compared to most other teams spending the increased tv money? Yes. We will be one of the lowest spending teams in the league if we sign no one else this year. If clubs want to spend £12m on Long £8m on Livermore, £10m on Forster then good luck to them.Well it's helped most clubs finish above us the last few years. I don't think it is sustainable though. Neither is spending peanuts and fighting relegation every year. At least were solvent again you can build off this everyone has been saying it for years but this. Can't go on. I've been watching SSN all day and the amount if times they have mentioned the squad places available and FFP would have made a decent drinking game as it has been taking some effect with clubs having to balance a bit that is only going to become more of a recurring theme Aren't United having to comply with this?! Yes which they are easily doing
