The Milner Novela... Final episode page 296

[Mellin]

my only concern is will we be able to spend the 18 million on new players this window??

My concern is how much of the £18 million will we be spending on new players.  This is why MON left?

I'd assume that depends on how much of the wage bill is freed up, which is fair enough.

[Mazrim]

Ive seen no mention (reliable) that we had no money to spend on transfers in the first instance, never mind if we get another £20m for Milner.

[PaulTheVillan]

Maybe Mr.Lerner thought that O'Neill had been given enough money & there will be a kitty for a new manager.

A possibilty.

So Lerner is going to entice the cream of management by giving them a cat?  Purfect!

[Mr Diggles]

Goodbye Milner - you were quality mate, could have been a legend.

Welcome Ireland - I am very excited by this guy. Up till last year this guy was the best young thing in the premiership - I remember thinking when Ashley Young won the Young Player of the Year award it was robbed from Ireland. He can be a very special player for the Villa, and he's now got a massive point to prove. Brilliant stuff.

And cash! Those City directors are complete and utter f'n idiots.

[themossman]

Whoever it is won't be able to be choosy with two weeks to go. Maybe better to just keep tab(by)s on players till January.

[themossman]

Says it all him and bellamy getting shipped out in the same week. And that's 3 recent players of the year (IMO) cast aside in a year.

[flybo]

Good luck james and welcome Ireland

[Toronto Villa]

Maybe Mr.Lerner thought that O'Neill had been given enough money & there will be a kitty for a new manager.

A possibilty.

I would have thought for sure. It would be almost impossible to hire any reputable manager these days and offer them nothing to spend. I would imagine that the funds for MON had strings attached, and also that the board's patience with him had run thin. The new bloke will still need to shift some players, but he'll get some money to bring in a few new faces.

[eastie]

Bit premature- deal hasn't gone through yet and Mancini oy said he thinks Ireland will be part of the deal and hopes it will go through on weds- far from a done deal yet!

I would suspect that the same conditions may not now apply. MON had paid silly amounts and silly wages for players he was not using, and may have been told he had got to offload the surplus before he could have the money to spend. KMac or the new management may have more leeway in the medium term, because it is not a problem of their making.

Also RAL may want to demonstrate to the media circus, and other clubs, that he has not necessarily put the brakes on spending, and that we are not a selling club, but that he had simply put the brakes on MON because he was out of control.

Enjoy the bench Milner and wherever City ship you off to on loan next season.

Still, you'll always have the money.

[SteveD]

Of more likely, no he can't have the money...we'veput the brakes on spending.
