    Nah Haaland visited dozens of clubs around that age and had his pick of them all. Steve Walsh makes it sound like he identified him and was overruled because it (obviously) paints him in a good light, but it's not what really happened.

    This is just a old wive's tale as far as I know. We were one of the clubs interested but Haaland chose otherwise.

    It's also worth realising that PSR is not the same as a club's financial situation. A club could look healthy PSR-wise but have cash-flow issues. And PSR allows for so many exemptions that a club could be in financial trouble no matter what their...

    Good example is how the idiots running the circus didn't know where to put costs associated to the stadium one year which I think lead to the points deductions since they could not be exempted from the PSR calculations.

    We are probably looking at several players for same positions. Doesn't mean we sign them all, this is more like contigency planning. If first choice player isn't available or club finds price is too steep they can more quickly move to the next...

    I like this thread. Every now and again, someone posts something that isn't insane.

    Never mind the fact club almost went bankrupt with the current stadium. Where would Moshiri have loaned an extra 200 million from?
  • Makis
    Anyone who thinks we should have built a bigger stadium: why? If you think it has something to do with money, nope. There is no financial point in adding another 10k until most of the people in the stadium are overseas fans like at that...
