Answer this question then Wilf............

[Geordie1974]

The thing is it has never been this bad before.Whenever we have had bad owners/chairman in the past there was a lack of money but on a ratio of money in a small amount was spent.
Under Ashley,we have never had as much money coming into the club as we have now.The money in to money spent ratio under him just doesnt add up.Because of mackem ar5e lickers like Wilf he can do as he pleases.There is more than him in our support unfortunately.
The thing what gets overlooked with the clowns like Wilf is,it was his mate Ashley that promised Rafa at the time,every penny the club generates.We all didn't say it,the liar did.

There's not a great deal to say that hasn't been said. Just to do.

Don't go.

I'm sure Ghost will have all of the answers plus a justification that is until he falls off the edge of the flat earth where it ends.

Cherry picking or not, answer the question!

I suppose Almiron is already paid for, with change from the Perez deal. The change should pay for the lick of paint the training HQ recieved.

So where has the money gone?

Mitrovic out for that money and surplus to requirements with Rafa was not losing anyone for anyone coming in, because Mitrovic wasn't getting any game time.

A Rondon loan was a good deal on its own.

Merino out was a case of making the money back what we paid. A simple zero profit from a player who was sporadic and basically couldn't handle it. It was no real loss and Ki is a much better player from what I've seen, so no issues there other than somehow we should be spending money to replace Merino just for the hell of it. It makes no sense.


Perez out? He's only just left and we've just got 30 million for him. Nobody believed he was worth half that, overall. Decent player who's been hit and miss but came good when he was allowed to express himself but wanted out for a while. I'd like to keep him but he's decided Leicester is his future. Good luck to him, but he's only just gone.

Thauvin didn't get the chance but we made no profit on him.
Atsu in was the choice of many fans who had him down as a decent addition, including me. Let's see what new manager can do with him, because Rafa didn't do much with him.

Wijnaldum out for 25 million. Bought for half that. Didn't want to play for us in the end because his head was turned, plus he was a home boy.
Isaac Hayden who many fans didn't rate but rate right now, very highly because he's came good and showed his potential. The downside is, he wants to leave for personal reasons. Hardly the club's fault.

So we finish at the TV money.
I have no clue where all the money is or has gone.
I don't have access to all the accounts. Do you?

Like I said about cherry picking. In the season we went down we spent a fortune. At the start of the season in the championship we'd spent a fortune and also kept premier league players wages on the go with little TV money.

You see all this stuff has to be added in overall to see what the balance is.
It's too easy to just say the club rakes in X amount of millions but just hides it in Ashley's trousers.
By all means go with that but you're speculating as to what and where unless you have access to hard facts.
I have no access to hard facts but then again I'm not worrying about what's in whose pockets. I worry about having a club and players to watch. I have all that. It might not always be ideal but what is?

I'd sooner have what I see rather than see a pitch full of expensive mercenaries which is what we'd end up with if we had an owner that was gung ho enough to throw money about like confetti.

So where has the money gone?

Have you worked it all out from start to finish?
Do you have access to all the accounts because surely the monies will all be in there, right?

What difference does it make what Almiron was bought under. His fee ends up around 21 million or so, doesn't it?

Let's wait and see what's brought in by a new manager and we'll have some idea about what's what for this portion, which is all we really need to be focusing on.

I am waiting for most of the Premier League clubs to go bust.They are obviously spending money they dont have or isn't available because Ashley doesnt spend,that means there is no money out there because Ashley doesnt tell lies.
