do you not think its good we are maintaining PL football without any of the owners being out of pocket? i do.

as much as we all dislike it, football is a business and to be sustainable should be lauded as a success.

Or you accept that some losses are incurred until your asset is sold and then you make your profit. The last few years of financial, and with it, squad management, have been very risky, and frankly taking a liberty with the management. They were lucky that a) There was a Roy and available, and b) He was prepared to take on and accept it. Otherwise we’d be well and truly fecked. Make no mistake about it.

Football is not the same as other business to consumer businesses. Many of them know they’re going to operate at a loss until sale. This lot have been prepared to risk our place in the league. And then there’s nothing happening on the stand they originally came in for.

FWIW I’ve accepted the way it’s run because it’s wasted emotion and dreaming otherwise. I still read many posts about spending the rest of the AWB money and dozens of millions on Zaha’s replacement.

That said I agree the wage bill needs reducing. It’s the things the management have been subjected to I don’t, and neither does roy. That’s a fact, not my opinion.

Not to every club it isn't as quite a few Premiership clubs have absolutely no chance of returning a profit to their owners including our greatest rival

like a swing from £20m profit to £30m loss for said team.

i do also feel a bit sorry for roy, but then i cant imagine he was offered a warchest to play with.

also less than a year before roy joined (i think) we signed PVA, Luca, Schlupp & Sakho for really what you would expect us to spend in 2 years so its not like he inherited a squad that hadnt been invested in.

going back to wilfs replacement, watched west brom earlier and that brazillian periera they have on loan from portugal looks the nuts.

Wilfs replacement is obvious, Ayew on the wing and a better centre forward

He was impressive.
He is on loan from Sporting Lisbon until the end of the season.
Very left-footed, not confident shooting with his right-foot.

Grady Diangana on loan to WBA from W.Ham also did well.

Pereira involved in another 4 goals tonight. Best assister in the Championship at a very young age.

People in the Palace board should just read more what we talk about here on this board: [Link]

They buy-out clause is just 10 million euros. A bargain in today's world for a 23 year old with this potential and a Portuguese passport too.

Matteo what do you know about Didier Lamkel Ze of Antwerp? Saw him play last Friday and was very very impressed but have to say I do not follow the Belgium league close enough to have a proper opinion.

Lampard saying they will be looking to replace Hazards goal scoring ability.. that aint Wilf

If Chelsea aren't in the running I cannot see anyone else viable. I think he will stay until the summer.
