Sour Mash

Exactly. What do people expect to be stated in these interviews?

F****g hell Claridge is coming across as an uninformed wally. Not sure who the other idiot is.

The point is we want to up our wage expenditure. Player choice will partly be down to Koeman/Reed's choice and isn't necessarily relevant here.

Why would that be the rule? It would defeat the purpose wouldn't it? And you'd fail the next year?

I'd be content enough with Forster in place of Boruc, but would still expect additional back-up to be brought in, even if its just on loan.

How long did Sunderland spend on his signing all told?

Yeah, we only really need one, as long as they are quality. Always a bonus strengthening throughout the squad, but a first choice of Fonte and one other, with Yoshida as back-up.

I don't get your point. Do you understand the points made in the blog?

Yeah, base our knowledge around a message from Lovren's hairdresser ha ha.

It tells you that his wages are likely to be pretty high in relation to his standing within the club though.

Why doesn't it add up? The only question I have on it is where the increase in tv prize money sits.

See Dubai Phil's last post. It was badly managed and didn't intend to sell all the players that it did. Could be true.

Exactly that. We should still have a sizeable amount to spend though.

Depends how the contract is written, hopefully clubs are getting a bit wiser to these situations.

I posted something similar to the original post of his blog. It's certainly interesting reading, worth looking at all his posts, they ask some good questions. The only thing I'm not clear on is where the tv money sits in all this? We've had a big rise in tv/prize money, shouldn't that be factored in? Or is it too late to be included in FFP spend this year?

Top half.

Fair play, decent deal, tax deductible as well I guess.

What other perks do you get? Is that regardless of how many previous away games you've done?

Have the club announced match ticket prices/categories etc yet for the coming season?

Click on the seat in question, then click on the Add to basket button on the left of your screen.

Liverpool tickets already?

Not one of your better efforts.

Best we not talk about him anymore then

Who's position are you expecting him to take?
