Roma may offer easier access to Champions League cash given the variety of winners there in the past 5 years.

PL is more of a closed shop. Keep us up, get the PL cash, fund Roma.

Even with that is just more of a chance to make far more here with the prem just getting bigger and bigger deals. I think roma is a huge club very sinilar to us imo but i still feel if they would want to sell and just have the one club it would be us.

The whole dimension of the club will change.

A: Weve seen Thelwell bring in a significant number of players for the youth teams last summer. The pick of which appear to be Benjamin, Clarke & Graham.

Imagine the growth he could implement with funds. Even £10mil a season would go a long way here in recruitment.

B: The stadium and training facilities are supposedly top notch. There was an article on Newcastle this week regarding their players e.g Gordon, Isak and Guimaraes being sold on a stadium and new training ground -- they are now 'unsettled' as it looks like those infrastructure projects wont happen during their contracts with the club.

C: Half our squad will be out of contract this summer. Some may be kept on low cost short term extenstions, nevertheless there is a massive opportunity to rebuild the team and squad.

These players are contracted beyond this season

2026:
Mykolenko
Garner
Tarkowski

2027
Branthwaite
Pickford
McNeil
Beto
Chermiti
Iroegbunam
Patterson
Armstrong
Dixon

2028
O'Brien

2029
Ndiaye


Some of these will also be sold. However this is only 14 players from e.g a 23 man squad.

We will need to spend significantly in January and the summer.

The opportunity to take this club to where it belongs in the top 6 is achievable with a focus on youth and infrastructure as well as a few key signings able to come in and take us to the next level.

Its going to be a rollercoaster.

reading your fantasy stuff is a rollercoaster

At least you have to admire their inclusivity as regards all faiths. Don't forget the w**king Buddha.

Alright mum

Summer spending in Seria A last year was 50% less than the PL, think Juventus topped it at about 160, so 300 would do some real business.

As to us, honestly, dunno. Think we're going to need to strike gold a couple of times, like proper Branthwaite level or better to get top 6.

I'm looking at getting into the top half as a big success for the next few years.

Did forest? Or did they get a better manager…who played to strengths of the squad.

I hope you're not pretending to be ITK again.

What are our strengths?

What are our strengths?

Defensive team missing a playmaker and a few tricky wingers, perhaps an overlapping fullback or two. Turns into a 'solid' counterattacking team.

Is it Sean’s new 3.5 year contract mate?
