Jacksonville Jaguars to play 4 games in London starting 2013.
There are VERY strong rumours that if the NFL decides that the UK can have a franchise then the Jaguars will be the team to move. These 4 games are to "test the market"
It's in our best interests to do business behind closed doors.
If we go shouting to the press that "we've had a £10m bid accepted for player X" then another club will likely try to out bid us. What's the big deal in finding out every minuscule detail? Any important information the club gives us
Has anyone thought about why the deal may be dead? We know the deal is roughly €15m but the argument is how to pay it.
It's been reported we have offered €8m up front but they probably want more upfront.
Could it be that we don't have the physical cash to pay €10m+ upfront?
If people stopped wetting themselves over failed transfers it'll be less embarrassing. Clubs fail on most targets, they just move on. So should all of we. Like sunday's game, we were able to dream for a while, but then reality sunk in
