All the clubs are going to need to reduce their wage bills with the new squad cost rules coming in
Or find creative accounting solutions. That will keep them ahead of Levy.
Who has been waiting 24 yeas for the rules to make us matter. Apprently.
Stuck him on ignore ages ago as I got fed up with him quoting me.
I genuinely think he's in a spiral he can't get out of. He's so entrenched in the pro Levy/ENIC position that it's taken over his life. At this stage, I dread to think what would happen to his mental well being if straight outta nowhere, we got sold and improved.
You spend that long defending the indefensible, and then you're proven wrong beyond all doubt. What happens? How does a person deal with that?
Can’t believe there are still people around that don’t have Amazon prime
How do you buy stuff??!!
There are no creative accounting solutions, your budget is determined by a % of your turnover........if you falsely report your turnover you end up in prison
No one has battered us this season. All defeats by just the one goal.
I mean you might be right and that could change.
I’m thinking given our makeshift defence are dropping deeper and our forward line are struggling we might see another draw
You don't think Chelsea and City have been doing that for years?
Chelsea haven't even got a shirt sponsor, sell players for more than anyone can believe, and then sign the likes of Enzo for a hundred mil.
Ambitious clubs will break the rules and worry about the consequences (if any) after they win.
Brighton beat us 3-0 in the 2nd half.
I still can't wrap my head around how the Galatasary game finished 3-2 - they should have had 6+
I have an Amazon account but not prime. You don't need prime to buy stuff...
In shops, perhaps?
Your living in the Stone Age man
If I can’t get the piece of crap I buy, by 10pm that night whilst not lifting one cheek off the sofa - then faaack it, that’s not a world I want to live in
Oh it will come as a shock to scselect band of accounting experts and cultist who will then contort themselves into all kinds of shapes to protect 'their man'.
Just getting ready to leave for the game , going to meet up with my good friend who is a B' mouth ST holder and got me the ticket ( in home end ) Have a quick beer with him before the game .
Really don't know what to expect tonight , hoping for the best but deep down , fearing the worst . Just to make it worse , it's started pissing down !
Come on Spurs , let's put this lot to the sword with a convincing display .
Catch up later guys

Probably be Alan Smith..
I do have it. I was just suggesting that if anyone only wants it only for the month free trial to cancel it straight away so they don’t forget.
Uh huh
In that case bringing the wage bill down wouldn't be coupled with "not being competitive for a couple of years then", because it would all be relative.
I refuse to believe Ange has been hired with the express objectives of "not being competitive". If he has and he has readily agreed to it then he's agreed to be a human shield for COYSDaniel and therefore he's a mug, and we're mugs for paying the season ticket prices we do (but we always knew that TBF)
Exactly. Hope for the best, plan for the worst.
Head says this feels like a draw to me. But heart says 3-1 to us.
I have booze and chocolate on standby.

I'm not cheering for this, I'm just stating facts with what I see the club doing. Is it not obvious?
Forget everything you hear. Actions speak louder than words. We didn't go after Conor Gallagher because of his wages. We didn't go for Neto or Eze for similar reasons. Gray and Odobert were cheaper alternatives on low wages who have the potential to become top class. The club are clearly working on lowering the average age of the squad and reducing the wage bill.
