The fuck you on about Chicago?  All of those are this summers signings.
I was referring to last summer and May is not Summer.

Apologies in advance for the insult but that's the kind of nonsense Wilma would come out with.

Christ, the period between seasons is commonly (and formally by the Premier League) known as the summer transfer window.  Quite why you would be talking about players signed last summer when we're balls deep into this window I really don't know.

Bloody Hell, even by your standards....that's a tedious argument.
Well your from Scotland which according to Billy Connolly has 2 seasons June and Winter.

I'm not really, I just like fried food.

Also our managing to have largely flat commercial revenue at a time we had a quarter of a century unbroken right to print money as member of a league with commercial revenues going through the roof.

That's the bit Lerner never seemed to understand. Ellis probably understood it but was out of his depth.

I would say it was the other way round. Lerner started off with bright ideas then gave up while Ellis was just stuck in the days when we were a local club for local people. I could write a book about the opportunities we missed from 1990-2006. Actually, I have several times over.

We are 3rd highest in losses per season, since the premier league began

I know that Abramovich was paying £900k a week into Chelsea

We have made some terrible business decisions

Even though we spent 3 seasons outside the top flight we've still got the 3rd highest loss in total. The vast majority of it Lerner's cash.

It really does prove that a fool and his money are easily parted!

Especially if Martin O'Neil is around to give a hand.

Careful, Darren Woolley was schmoozing  MON yesterday. Or ambushing him, I’m not sure which.

An interesting analysis of how the loss of Phillips and Rapinha will affect Leeds and how clubs of similar stature are on an almost endless treadmill of searching for talent that can be bought, improved and, almost inevitably sold to the Greedy 6. Echoes of Villa and Grealish. Perhaps we were naive in thinking he'd stay and so hadn't planned properly for when he did leave?

Or, the close season, in old money.
