Didn't Edwards leave the scousers because he wanted to play consultant to multiple clubs and not be stuck in one place?
Everywhere he's gone the teams have produced quality players when he was there. Southampton and Spurs especially... and they've not replicated it since. Leipzig will produce talent always, but Monaco was in a slump before him and now have produced since he's come in. It's safe to say his track record is spot on so far. More exciting to me is Jean Claude Blanc. I have to say, I did want the Qataris - but the things I am hearing from Jim are very encouraging.
I was under the impression FFP dictated what we can spend.
Why not, let's chuck a useless anti-Semitic commie into the mix. The only way is up!
10 goals scored in 9 games. Looks quite familiar...
Go back to the Israel thread and support bombing hospitals
Years behind the curve as usual. In 2018 it might have been an inspired appointment in 2023 he’s coming off the back of a terrible spell at Monaco. Crap
Clubs are permitted to spend up to €5 million more than they earn per assessment period (three years). However it can exceed that level to a limit if it is covered by a direct contribution from the club's owner.
Terrible?
Ok but by how much can they exceed it?
No DOF worth his weight in gold will want to partake in this toxic scenario with dual-ownership.
Never understood this attitude to be honest, and it strikes as the kind of person you definitely don’t want around anyway. It’s easy to want to work for a club that’s winning absolutely everything and your presence and role doesn’t even have an impact on the running of things but you’ll get all the praise anyway.
What? There are a myriad of factors as to why it may not have worked out at Monaco his track record otherwise speaks for itself.
You aren’t. You’re seeing aggregator accounts report that Dave Brailsford likes Graham Potter and would consider him if Ten Hag didn’t work out.
It's a situation that is set up for failure and not having blinkers going in. The decision-making process will be laborious if not ambiguous.
depends if we pay off some of the debt, doesn't it?
Well I'm not sure how quickly doing that would affect how much we could spend in January.
I'm not being funny- my local team sat at the top of table after 11 games or something. and we got relegated.
Brexit FC?
Maguire is going nowhere and Sancho will go on loan for a season !
They might have to pay £30m into the club just for FFP reasons whether they want to or not ?
But they can defend sign up Todibo asap
Where? That must be BS
Seen them too. Surely a wind up.
I know his bid had bigger problems but I can’t help but feel happy we don’t have this absolute fanny owning our football club. Cast iron certainty he’d have gotten in a ruck with Mark Hughes about handshakes within a fortnight of arriving.Tweet

I watched an interview with David Ornstein and he insinuated that the Glazers deviated very quickly from the full option when "exploring strategic review". Some posters on here have also drawn to the same conclusion. I think I now agree with that as well. As soon as it was apparent that there were not going to be multiple offers for a full sale, that option was gone.
“Striking back” with a strongly worded letter? That should get through to the Glazers.
They might well do mate I wouldn't know for sure, but even if they did I don't imagine £30m would make too much of a difference given the prices of players these days. The rumours are Ten Hag much like last January won't have much to spend so we'd be shopping around in the loan market again.
I think it's worth pointing out that Doha News are just aggregating a story as reported by some Twitter account called "Sports Zone."
Least goals conceded.. we could do with some of that now!
He wasn't the sporting director at Southampton, it was Les Reed, he wasn't Spurs DOF but head of recruitment and their recruitment was subpar, he wasn't a DOF for Leipzig either. His first job as a Director of Football was for Monaco before that he was essentially in charge of scouting, the analysts or development.
Regardless of that, there are going to be serious questions asked by the Class A shareholders at the end of this review.
I believe any devaluing of the quatar bid afterwards is to make people forget the loss of what could have been, and accept the reality of the owners staying
maybe the gap between the debt and income will be better with the investment... but this is why I'm not an accountant (along with a lot of other reasons)
You most certainly have no idea whether Mitchell would be a success at United or how well he did at previous clubs.
