We lose parachute payments this summer don't we so you to balance that out with losing some more high earners and possibly selling a crown jewel like Jack.What I don't understand is why we just didn't sell Jack last summer. Yes Spurs weren't paying our valuation but it's still something to avert a potential FFP sanction.Would be disappointed in the new lot if we get hit with any sort of points deduction (we can barely challenge for top 6 starting on 0 points). We had a massive warning last summer which we were lucky to get away with.

Especially if the club understands that we didn’t ‘need’ to at that time.I’m glad we told spurs to fuck off.If we ‘must’ sell him in the future, and I’m resigned to the fact we do, then at least his true worth to Aston Villa is covered by a minimum valuation in his contract, hopefully.
Fuck it. Spend spend spend, get promoted, take the fine. Totally worth it so long as we get promoted! Risk? What risk? 😬

Let's hope they're owners who have properly looked at the long term rather than just paying lip service to it.
Didn't they make an early extremely derisory offer of £3m and Onomah?
Companies house saying the owners have put in another 13 squillion to cover January.
