Would you sacrifice the naming rights

So Rafa should "have a go" - as you always say - without Ashley having to have a go in the market?

I don't get this having a go thing.
What does having a go mean.
Have a go at what and what price are we talking about in having a go.
Plus where does this having a go have us end up?

I'm just curious about what's meant.

For me it's a case of any manager getting funds that the club are capable of absorbing even if things go teets up.

We may as well just call it a day then

A multi billionaire with a club that can't generate enough money

How do other clubs do it????

i wasnt assuming

it was a figure i thought of that would maybe make people say yes or no

if we got 14 mill a season i would seriously consider it

i mean its a name that i would still only call it st james park

for years people have called me steve

it isnt my real name

and those close call me by my real name

for 2 mill i wouldnt and indeed 8 mill i wouldnt unless it was part of a wider sponsorship package

but m merely trying to make a point and not an argument

Its all right i understand 🙂

We amassed 130 mill

Wages were close to 80 mill

Doesn't leave a lot to run a club
And invest
And pay if a debt

Doesn't leave a lot to have a go

We are playing in the most watched league in the world
A bit of investment in the squad say £70m/£80m
Get a bit more interest in the club
Invest some more
Sponsors want part of the club and want to pay to be a part of it
Invest some more
Not spend £50m recoup £80m

We were one of the richest clubs in the world until this regime came in
Didn't get relegated
Tried to win something
And ultimately had half the debt this regime has burdened the club with
Interest free or not

High five.

he has a manager to attract the right players
the players at real soon had him out so did the chelsea players
he has attracted
joselwho wourinho etc etc

we wouldnt give them away if we tried

nearly every player rafa has been linked with hasnt come
and we pay decent wages
not great but we do have a high wage bill

[pboromag]

I have an opinion on the matter
