The people on that forum are a very strange lot. More post from their mother's basement than on here for sure.
I've just started, got me one of them sweet electronic board with several game modes. Proper sucked for weeks, couldn't hit shit...but darts starting to land where I meant. Few 20s, few bulls, the odd 60 or more pts round.Got a bull finish the other night too....
Been playing darts for years tbf, have the odd trophy......even have the beer belly to go with it!......☹
Keep it up anyway......
Friggin addictive that thing.
The upkeep is nowhere near as expensive as they make out. The right way to make money to pay for the upkeep is to charge users a nominal fee for some extra content. They currently have 919 members online from a quick look.
If they charged them £1 a year to access a part of the forum, that would easily pay for the forum upkeep outside of any ad revenue it could generate.
Now try thinking about it after putting a knotted hankie on your head, a la Monty Python.
I tried it myself and this is what I got;
SPEND BIG.
GIV ME NOO SHINEE!
Make sure there is someone else in the room to take the hankie off your head, as you'll be too stupid to remember to take it off yourself.

On paper, that'd be a very strong window, defo a show of ambition.
Not being pessimistic for the sake of it, but I just can't see it happen. Openda is at least 60-70 mil, as much if not more for Williams/Xavi, reckon MGW would cost round 40 and Eze gotta be 60 with all the talk. Leeds know what they got with the kid do it'd be no less than 30 + bonuses. Geertruida is another 40.
Absolutely zero chance our beloved jeffe spends 200 or so mil this summer, especially after signing off on a massive pay packet for the best winger in the world. Heck, we could sell Porro & Cuti to Real for a combined 120 mil and it still ain't happening.
Reckon we'll overpay for Eze and probably will do the Leeds lad for a ridiculous amount (so anything over 20mil), but the rest will be punts like Morata on loan and some C-list defender out of nowhere.
Based on our history under Levy I have exactly the same expectations as you mate.
Which is why I was trying to clarify it for
The Absolute GOAT
When people ask what I'd like to see when I say the owners don't want to invest to win, it's easy to get bogged down with that debate.
Examples make it easier. There are plenty of links out there that are just obviously lower budget versions of the better players in the positions/roles it looks like we need to invest.
Leeds want Skipp apparently

But we have also been linked to the more expensive players too.
Either you believe all the links or none of them. You can't just cherry picks the links you don't like and make that what you're basing your opinion on.
Time, as always will tell.
Get more money from a PL team for Rodon and pass it on to Leeds for Gray if that's what it takes.
It shouldn't make any difference to them if they're gonna have to lose Gray either way
To be fair it was movies alongside soggy biscuit.
Of all the things you could have done when your parents were away
Eh?
My post was based off every link and which ones are more likely to happen considering the clubs economic model.
Ha ha ha... ha ha ha......ha ha!
If we get a cheaper option it must be because Ange preferred it.
Oh my fuckin' days .
This is brilliant!
But our current economic model is not what you are making it out to be -
We spent 60 mil on a backup striker just 2 years ago
Spurs fans when they don't like the player's the manager wants:
Back the manager Levy
Actually that's not such a great idea, don't back the manager because we don't like his targets
Mickey was the cheaper option
