They come in and say there is a 'lot of money to spend, and Aston Villa will compete at the top.' You're appointed as scout for Tim Sherwood, as he starts his first full season in charge with 50m in his pocket.

lp_villa830 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Can't boost the wages by more than £4m a season unless gate receipts and sponsorship deals grow too though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshVilla Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Were not going to suddenly be able to spend 50 mill though are we because of FFP? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgyknees Posted March 1, 2015 Author Share Posted March 1, 2015 Can't boost the wages by more than £4m a season unless gate receipts and sponsorship deals grow too though. With Vlaar and Bent's wages gone, and if we can get rid of N'Zogbia and Given, we will be ok wage wise. But this thread isn't about FFP, we have enough of those. It does say dream in the title you pessimistic lot! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingman Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Genuine question to those that know our ratio turnover to FFP, Now that the latest books are on show, how much can we rightfully spend without being sanctioned to comply or die? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 The first thing I would say is where is the rest of the money because we will need a great deal more of that "lot of money" to compete at the top. We can forget about FFP because our new owners will find us someone to pay £200m to have naming rights for the Holte End refreshment kiosks. So I would spend my first £50m and some spare change on bringing in Ross Barkley, Gary Cahill, James Milner, Raheem Sterling and Saido Berahino.

Well no, not really. PSG's sponsorship deal with the QTA failed the UEFA fair value test. Laurent Blanc has been moaning about how they've been impacted by sanctions. You can't just sponsor a shit, under achieving football club, who have won nothing for pushing twenty years, to the tune of £200M and claim fair value.

VT Supporter Marka Ragnos Posted March 1, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted March 1, 2015 (edited) JAY-sus. Answer the frickin OP's damn question ... for starters ... Fast, precise, creative, scores some goals ... Unlike Beneteke, this fast forward can actually hit the net ... and be ONSIDE ... A menace, a finisher, a tricky handful on corners ... My fave but probably too pricey ... can you imagine our counter-attacks???????? Edited March 1, 2015 by Shifted To Neutral Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 If we do get taken over it'll be interesting to see if they keep Sherwood, I wonder what he makes of all the uncertainty? If he is still around I suppose we'll be linked to a few Tottenham players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cahill getting old -- would be too pricey, too. Edited March 1, 2015 by Shifted To Neutral Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
