Not gonna lie pulled that out my arse somewhat but it's been at or around £200m gross the last 3 seasons and around £130-150m net, Ange got £250m gross of investment in his first season. If we were to sustain that spending pattern over the course of 3-5 seasons and have more hits than misses we might well end up building a team capable of something, considering other clubs around us are having to take "fallow years" between spending periods.

Modern football seems more and more about physicality
You have to be elite if you are not a strong athlete nowadays, which is a sad state football has got it's self into imo
Not just physicality, but athleticism/cardio too.
Tactically; modern football demands these things.

Or more cash for hotels and golf courses?
Absolutely anything and everything by the looks of it.
What is left of the stadium debt, this would indeed cover a lot of what is left, it would be nice if, this allowed the ub to go deeper in the transfer window.
Would be amazing. We all know how THFC works- we need money always, or we aren’t going to compete against the top.
It's not good for the sport though premier league games were far more entertaining and had more tops players 15/20 years ago
That will happen, or probably already has happened.
Forrest want their replacement in first before being held to random.
And I'm sure MGW is just going through the motions until that replacement is in, then we'll see it all concluded.
Im not sure I’d associate either of those adjectives withI'd properly counter but I can't be arsed for what is essentially a b-tecShadydan
You are shady without the charisma and charm
Shadydan
but we can put that down to cultural differences 
In my experience, internet heroes are not the most … uh… rounded people in real life. Xx

I am as guilty as anyone before a new season begins, believing this season will be the season we see our beloved THFC show a real and genuine attempt to sit and dine at the top table and to look like we belong there.
And with what I'm hearing regarding outside investment coming in, having Thomas Frank at the helm and Levy looking and sounding like he is ready to splash that cash on proven quality, this time I am convinced of it!
COYS!!
Side note: I'd be happy to see, Bissouma, Benny, Richarlison, Maddison and the legend that is Heung-Min Son leave in this window. Depending on where/if Sonny goes, I reckon you are looking at over £100m, plus over 20m a season in wages that could be redirected towards 2 first team purchases.

This is definitely true in England. I don’t think it is true in Spain.
Signed him for Sankt Pauli. Won me the Bundesliga and CL within 3 seasons. Top scorer every year. Sold him to City for 100mil.
FM is always right. Sign him up, COYS Daniel.
We had no problems scoring goals with these players under Ange.
Frank has already said he sees no issues about scoring goals with what we currently have.
Make of that what you will

Saudi sponsor mate. I assume you'll be protesting - or will be discounting any success we achieve as blood money mate?????????

Morgan Gibbs-White is back in a Forest shirt – but the uncertainty is not over
Ten days on from Tottenham's shock bid for him, the midfielder made his first appearance of pre-season against Monaco
www.nytimes.com
He stepped out yesterday in their smart new kit, which carries something of a resemblance to the pin-striped offering Forest wore in 1992-93, a season that began with them selling one of their best players — Teddy Sheringham — to Tottenham and ended, ultimately, in relegation from the top flight.
