This would mean that he has to score a goal..........

[Busheyboy]

I care. If we pay £10m for Crouch, we would make £8m loss if we would have to sell him on. Not good if relegated.

as Del said, our owners have huge personal wealth and that is totally different to borrowing from banks, etc
owning a football club is a complete gamble and not many of them make money out of it, these guys know that and go into it with their eyes open
if we did go down and kept Harry, I think we'd be back very quickly and he's determined to make us a lot better than when he took over

I thought that UEFA was going to fine all these clubs that were not self sufficient...... :P

Ok, but you do know what is the fastest way to become a millionaire?

[Busheyboy]

yes, start with several million!

[Timmy the Doc]

No, to make a billion and buy an airline.

[Busheyboy]

the reality is that most clubs run at a loss and most fans are only concerned with the performances and results of the team on the pitch
ask the gooners how pleased they are to be so profitable, they've fallen so far behind the others, it's a joke

[zuluop]

Feel free to contribute if you have any news - I will then update the main post.

Looks like Capoue is not moving so moved him to "Missed Targets"

[MYU]

Oh well... wonder who's next on this list?

[Norths]

wasnt this a sticky earlier?

[acricketer]

It's come unstuck hopefully unlike our transfer targets!

You are a very generous man with someone else's money, aren't you? You say Fernandes has "huge personal wealth". Er, he is apparently worth £250m/ £300m - we cd quite easily be spending a tenth of that in this transfer window alone. This isn't Monopoly money you know. All v well to say "we cd recoup the money if we go down". Well how much is a anyone going to pay a Championship club for 32-year-old players with relegation clauses in their contracts? Not a lot wd be my guess. I like your enthusiasm for the club but, with the greatest respects, I'm mightily relieved you aren't our CEO.

Yes but people tend to overlook the sticky posts it seems.
