Summer 2017 transfer window or, waiting for Godot

[Nutter-Naylor]

Err...no it wasn't!

I was losing track of time, these transfer window days are all merging into one!

Holy fucking christ a signed player holding a shirt!!!

Lads it's been a long hard slog, many sin bins, many men ignored, some laughs and a few buckets of vomit but we got there...

We have signed one of the top 50 keepers in the league. What a time to be alive!

But he didn't. The rest of the post is useless because you're describing the etymology of a word that wasn't said.
(Even then, it's not a valid etymology)

I know mate, it's not even sure

 

[RocketRonny]

Is "homo" still OK?

Nope. Just Sapien now.

You fucking jampot, shut your mouth. Brand new racist word right there - refers to anyone with red cheeks. Suck it, jam pot.

I quite like "Belmont".

It offends enough to be satisfying, but means nothing

 

[GlasgowSpur]

every word can be used offensively/derogatorily.

Challenge accepted, you fucking cabbage!!!

The PC is strong in this thread. jeez

 

[Melspurnian]

just want to say that that goalkeeping kit is fucking gorgeous. Nike have absolutely smashed that this season

How much of that increase gate receipt do Tottenham get?

How much of that increased gate receipt do Wembley/FA/Council get?

We've rented out Wembley. This means we're costing the police money. This means we're costing the council money. This means we're costing the FA money. This means we're using money for maintenance, and god forbid, even flags.

Who do you think pays for all this shit? The FA? No, we do.

Wembley isn't a "Here, double your revenue for free" card. It baffles me that this slipped your mind.

Doubling the capacity (in ticket sales) would far outstrip the added costs and we would have to pay for Policing whether it be Wembley, WHL or Hackney Marshes.

You are terribly naive if you think that tight arse Levy hadn't used a slide rule and abacus to work out the profitability angle on this temporary move. If he could get a better return we'd be playing in Devon at the Dog & Duck.

 

[El flaco]

welcome to the guy, but I don't really see the point in signing someone thats not going to play when we've binned jordan archer and like mcghee in the past couple of seasons who could have done the same.

Obviously. For Man City this amounts to £1,000,000 a season. Sure, it's pennys, and Wembley is probably less than £500k a year, but it's still another factor draining away profits.

People who think we've doubled our revenue by moving to Wembley are insane.

Gazzaniga tells me a few things
We weren't convinced with Lopez - the fee is undisclosed I'm interested to see if it's near £6m.
That we think Vorm is past his best
That we think Lloris is off and we need a second keeper with a little PL experience.
It's a strange one when we have Alfie Whitman and Brandon Austin.
I just hope the next 2 are not Foyth and Diop.
Would be very underwhelming.

Papers said £2-3m
