  1. If this were the continent Id be more worried due to the 3rd part ownership ban that happens over here. Abroad I suppose there is nothing wrong with providing a top class academy and skinming off a percentage of transfer fees. Again that would have its issues as to how it would be run in reality with player registrations etc Ultimately I agree, its fantasy. Plus if you wanted to sell the club surely you would want to offer the highlight as part of the package to raise the price, and if you wanted to just make constant profit then you would keep the academy running. Its madness, but my point was it 'could' happen, as unrealistic as it was
  2. Still not enthused about the hernandez link, but will be reasonably happy should it get over the line dependant on the package we offer. It gives us another option, I just dont find him fitting into the 433 system we will employ. And anyway, surely a deal for hernandez wont be far off a package we could put together for Bony ? So why arent we sniffing around him instead ?
  3. Dont see why not, it would be massively contraversial and I cant remember a situation like it but there is no rules against the purchase of a facility as far as Im aware
  4. Think you have missed my point a tad pal. Generally the media and especially an outlet like itv news are going to at the very least check the legititimacy of their stories. There are plenty on here from both sides of the arguement, both positive and negative that are happy to grab one and completely dismiss the other from their agenda spectrum. Personally Im trying to piece things together from what I hear in the media, what I hear from staplewood and what I read on here. I dont see the point of needlessly attempting to cling to one area of info. From what I have pieced together the boardroom has struggled to keep up with the changes that have occured since the dwarf dissapeared, they could have handled situations better and now are slowly exiting the other side. There are still issues there, but I agree, unless something seriously sinister is going on we wont be selling the training ground
  5. This However its clear he will get there in the attacking sense, more shots on goal and more dribbles then any other PL lb last year. He isnt the complete package yet but he certainly will be. Still, we didnt have much of a chance keeping him. Unlike the other 3 he is/will be world class
  6. Ive not actually read it, but does seem a running theme at the moment. Can bet your house on anything negative being labelled immediately as crap and anything positive as guaranteed truth. Fact is, truth is likely to be somewhere in the middle. Obviously the training ground will not close, we've just spent 30m on it. But to say there isnt an issue at the club is dillusional (though we are now moving out of it)
  7. Its negative so its obviously crap.... We need the positive stuff, always true that
  8. Poch as a coach is outstanding, personally, feelings aside, koeman has a lot to do for me to consider him to be at the same level. The way poch set a team up to trigger the press so effectively was a wonderful thing to watch from someone who is currently trying to coach pressing into players. I think, given time, he'll get Spurs into the CL again. And eventually end up at a top club
  9. Only 20 posts before this is regarded as crap
  10. If we hadn't made multiple changes to personel Id say definately, right now Im saying likely
  11. S'aint nothing left ??!?
  12. I think most are underwhelmed, its not Ryans fault, I think he'll be solid enough. However, its pretty underwhelming after the losses and 90m in the bank
  13. He will play 433 or 4231 as its the system that the academy uses and that has been recently coached as well as those used in friendlies
  14. Unless women have a lower mean of intelligence ?
  15. Im pretty sure id be more raging if I was the other teams, they are usual miles off
  16. Whats that ? One a season or so for how long ?! Not over a short period of time In memory aswell Ive not remembered so many players prepared to burn all bridges with the club and fans in order to force an exit. Aswell as talk of unrest. As I keep saying, its not necessarily the outgoings, its the manner of them
  17. Im not having you believe anything you muppet just providing info, if others choose to blame the clear disruption in camp as players just trying to move on its up to you. Carry on with the obsession though DPS its flattering
  18. What is his issue with us ? Clearly dislike there
  19. Ive said enough, and there is enough evidence out there from the players, joirnalists and other posters. Stick your head in the sad if you want, I cant be arsed to go through it again.
  20. They'll always be a club to support bud, but it helps to know whats going on at the training ground to form an opinion
  21. Having known members of staff both board and players he was interested in his own pockets before anything else
  22. The key to keeping any top player is world class catering
  23. Ill happily admit im wrong if I had to, in the meantime Im struggling to see any positives, only that maybe the board are learning what a poor job they are doing
  24. I dont think parking charges and ticket tax quite add up to this boards monumental **** up TBH
