Surely you acknowledge the way PSG has operated as being circus like? I mean I don’t need to go into detail regarding endless managers, huge contracts, mbappe etc…
*Facepalm* you think Radcliffe will be happy with him benefitting 25% and the Glaziers benefitting 75% from work only being done by the former?
Nice were operated as a circus till last season. The difference is that psg won alot, nice didn't
PSG have an endless pot of money. Let’s not play dumb.
I am admiring nothing. I am stating a fact. Both clubs were poorly run and both had since worked to ratify that. Psg spent alot, nice less. Psg won alot, nice won nothing. I see no use in discussing qatar either as they are not buying the club anytime soon.
Ratcliffe. Can we not have this become another Glaziers please.
Plus we are not that far away, this season has been a disaster but so was the 21/22 after which we wasted a whole summer chasing FDJ but still cobbled up a few last dice panic signings that got us going and we finished 3rd, with a final appearance and a trophy. Imagine what we can achieve with a couple well planned and we'll executed summer transfer windows plus a top manager given what base we already have.
So if we’re sitting above Brighton that doesn’t mean we’re a circus? PSG are expected to win every season and have still amassed a squad full of very talented players that should sit at the top of the table.
Brighton are run better then us. Nice weren't run better then psg. They were both ran horribly and both are ratifying that. Psg spent more then ineos. They also won alot while Nice won nothing. That's the difference
He’s talking out his arse there. As he often does. Why would we take anything that prat says seriously?
If we are run like Brighton with our resources and reach we'd be CL contenders every season after the initial two or three. Whilst we shouldn't aim to find the Caicedos and the Fergusons it wouldn't hurt us to pick a rough diamond or two that grows into a first team fixture.
Autocorrect for the win. ‘Radcliffe’ should autocorrect to ‘I’m a stupid illiterate Cnut who is too lazy to spell stuff properly’.
So you agree with me then. That was the point. Some posters want to hit out at INEOS and their track record but oddly fail to acknowledge that the Qatar option had zero experience running a club and by using PSG as a benchmark has made a mess of things.
The benefit to Ratcliffe is owning and running the world’s biggest football club. Its prestige, kudos, legacy he is interested in.
He doesn't care about that
I made my point about Nice and psg. Neither club was run well and while psg spent more, they won trophies. Nice did not. Both had since worked hard to sort the issues
What I disagree is this concept that Nice was run better then psg. It wasn't
Who said that?
It was hinted and tbf its been a common argument in here for months. Ineos were not a better owner to the psg al thanis. They didnt run the club better. Both nice and psg were circuses. The only difference is that the al thanis spent more then ineos hence they won the trophies.
I would also add that PSG could attract better players and are a traditional ‘big club’ in France.
Keep both misspellings and we can call this the era of Harry Potter and the Miserly Window Fitters.
Been in charge for nigh on 2 decades and people are still calling them “Glaziers” - feck me.
Thats bullshit to be fair. PSG certainly appears worse run.
This is just pure laziness.
It isn't, it is a blatant WUMing however.
Nice hired moody of all people as consultant. He saddled them with premiership has beens who ruined their season. They had Bob Ratcliffe as CEO despite tanking at lausanne and they had favre not knowing were their new signing plays. At one point there were protests against ineos and the fans were hoping that they would sell. That sounds as a big circus to me
I understand the lure of these rich owners buying French clubs. These vlubs are cheap and they literally sit on a gold mine in terms of youth talent. The country is huge and beautiful as well.
They got rid of those players, and now their CEO is Fabrice Bocquet, so they learned from their mistakes. Why are you making up that they haven't?
They were gammon apparently.Bacon Butties for press Conference.
Ratcliffe Effect in full flow....
That's because no one wanted the chicken.Bacon Butties for press Conference.
Ratcliffe Effect in full flow....
That’s not the point. You said it was ironic to call PSG a circus because they are above Nice. They are a circus and their position is irrelevant to that.
The Sheikhs put on a huge spread for journos when they took over City. Ratcliffe has failed his first real test here. Really worrying sign of things to come, especially since we've not heard of any changes in the catering department, so we know for a fact the bacon won't be crispy.Bacon Butties for press Conference.

I might be wrong but didn't he get Sociedad B relegated just before he got the Leverkusen job? Maybe someone with more knowledge than me can explain that one but I'd rather have McKenna than Alonso right now, at least until Alonso showed a bit more consistency in his career.
