Maybe we should just buy Brighton’s scouts.
They get poached and just get better and better and even more watchable

Where's the cut off to this theory? I thought Numah was tweeted as €22m.......
If it's bigger money punts on potential you're after then:
Ndombele 60m
GLC 40m
Sanchez 40m
Sessengon 30m
Reg 35m
You're talking about classic Spurs signings..... Wanna go back even further and allow for inflation?
Modric 16m
Berba - roughly the same
Son - 22
Some flower; some don't..... It's bogus to imply that we aren't littered with such purchases...... .The mad thing is the Levy-hate narrative is normally critical of us for doing so.
Based on the ease at which I can list 'gambles' on 'potential' that's far from a given... And "99%" is frankly guff. Even if they don't get done it may have nothing to do with "bottling".
The closest thing to this is the Etihad and Red Bull consortiums.
They've got clubs attached to the brand around the world and basically do insider trading.
Leipzig and Salzburg have been trading players and coaches like playing cards.
You have to publicly declare it
You're suggesting that they've embezzled the money somehow, if that were the case then they'd be committing fraud.
So you're saying they HAVE issued a dividend to the shareholders for the £100m Kane fee? :/
Supporters mad that thing won’t change and all they’re willing to do is complain on a forum. That’ll show em
I'll be honest, posts by some people on this forum have opened my eyes to some things about them.
Twitter posts are easy to attach bots and fans of other teams.
I listed a shit tone of duds that overstayed their welcome for you a couple of says ago..... 4/5 of each Arse, Chavs, Man U and resembled all the criteria I just quoted.
There are stronger and more credible links to Orban with no serious interest from a clearly bigger club and his price is something we have paid before (rather than one which would smash our transfer record).
So no, the same thing would not apply to Orban that applies to Muani.
Gonna need some proof of that......
To this date the company accounts won't back you up; that's already proven.
West Ham & City can; but their fans don't mock their own clubs for it.
FFS; look around the world... .All these big bands/acts play in Sports stadiums (each of these stadiums is a home for one team or another)...... There's nothing there to be mocked or cry about.
This is one of the twattiest sticks to beat our club with.

I'll never understand the commitment from some posters to defending the owners. Baffling.
They do not care about you, never will, and Joe Lewis is an insider trading scumbag. Even if some nasty lies are told about them, why do you care? If you aren't being paid to defend them, why bother? They have expensive lawyers for that.
Weird dedication to go to bat for some lizard-like individuals sat at the top laughing their fucking asses off at fans.

No, but if they did, it would not be fraudulent.
It’s pretty smart.
Anti-bullshit =/= Pro-Lewis/Levy/ENIC
Stirring the fanbase up with lies and false-narrative is toxic.
Leave that shit to the puerile pricks; such as those with the gender-shifting avatar.
.....At least we're getting somewhere though; at least it's being acknowledged that lies are commonly being told.

Most clubs have deadwood that is years old, including many in the Woolwich list I posted. They haven't won much in the last 10 years either - on a different day, we could have won more cups than them in that period - but that's a completely different conversation anyway.
There is no 'scam'. There is a football club and business (it is both) being run in a way that you don't like. Perhaps that's partly because you have (sometimes absolutely legitimate, sometimes not) concerns about errors being made, and perhaps it's partly because, if you'll forgive me for saying, you sometimes come across as somewhat 'spoiled'. It's probably bits of both. But even if you were 100% right about poor decisions being made, it's not a 'scam'.
Right. Don’t disagree. All I am saying is that they have the right to issue a dividend to shareholders so long as they follow the proper processes.
I don’t like this ownership group, but accusations of fraud, etc., are silly.
Therefore in Jan we‘d lose him, Bissouma and Sarr to ACON
