Surprised @GIMH didn't get in on this yesterday with the various cup draws done yesterday.

Been busy, and am not looking forwards to next season at all

So the first transfer window of the summer closes this weekend, the clubs in need of sales to out PSR. Seems like Everton are ok after selling Godfrey and Chelsea will be after the deal with Villa for Maatsen. Just Leicester and Newcastle to get fixed up now.

Could be lots of deals this weekend and then clubs like Man U will complain about fees etc...

How is it that Chelsea still seem to be linked with tons of players? Okay, they've sold Maatsen, but surely their squad is still massively bloated?

Also following the goings on at Southend, who've been asked to pay a GBP1million bond to be allowed to participate in the Vauxhall Conference. Whether it's a ploy to get the Chairman to finally complete the sale of the club or something even more poorly thought out, I don't know.

I have no idea how Chelsea are getting away with it but it seems to be that the billion they have spent is divided up over 8 years as those were the contracts given and then they need about £125m a year, Maatsen and Mount probably cover that for this year given they were youth players...

If I'm wrong on that then God knows but that's my take on it.

Chelsea have also raked in loads of money on players sold over the last few windows/seasons.

How so?

How so?

Supporting Tranmere requires one to spend a lot of time in the Wirral.

Yes, selling one to Ipswich too now. Mad way to do business as they haven't improved on the field

 

[GIMH]

How so?

We’ve been poor for a couple of years so it just makes it tiring haha

If the asterisk is for Tranmere then this is genius. If it’s for the Wirral then you’re a ****ing buffoon

 

[grecian]

Glad we got Ryan Woods back, absolutely quality, though it only seems five minutes ago he was along with Matt Grimes the best lower League young talent. Was really solid in midfield for us better than Carroll as that experienced classy head in midfield.

 

[Magrat Garlick]

glad to see premier league football continues to be a totally honest and above board business

Moving forward these should be called the Official European Football thread, what with all the UEFA, and Non English Footage league stuff that end up discussed in the thread.

Anyway enjoy a stale news meme, on the house

Expecting doom for SAFC
