• Reading the esks report into the financials of this transfer window, it seems everything is being put in place to make us more attractive to investors. rnrnThey are positioning the club to be an attractive investment, not a competitive one on the pitch. rnrnReducing wages, cutting back the squad to improve the bottom line, they\'ve refinanced all the bad loans and debt, but not to invest in the paying squad but to show us as a healthy business worth putting money into.rnrnThe difference in the scr limits and what they were willing to spend confirms this.rnrnEven buying balogun wouldn\'t have had us at the scr limit. rnOther clubs pushing it to the absolute maximum, while TFG are looking to keep us looking attractive to investors rather than good players. rnrnWouldn\'t be surprised if we get another faceless, soulless speculator investor that just looks at the accounts, and the opportunity, but doesn\'t care about the game, supporters or being competitive, ...

• The first line of The EPL Owners Charter, “As Owners and Directors, we are therncustodians of our Clubs and will upholdrnthe spirit of these commitments.” It’s blatantly obvious dead eyed billionaires have no interest or understanding of custodianship. All they understand is ownership. There is absolutely no connection between multi generational match-going supporters and absentee billionaire owners who view clubs as simply being part of their commercial portfolio. The German 50+1 model has on the whole stopped these wealthy leaches from taking over clubs. Too late now. Another spin of the wheel. ...

• Be good to see Moyes come into his next presser waving a bunch of Gladioli around his head and breaking out into \" I was looking for a job and then I found a job and heaven knows I\'m miserable now, in my life why do I give valuable time to people who don\'t care if I live or die ?rnOf course the only downside to TFG selling the club would be the prospect of new owners saying we need some stability right now so \" Davey how do you fancy a couple more seasons to steady the ship?\". That black cloud is returning over my headrn...

• Mark 42, Fully agree. It\'s about time the Sports Minister, took a full interest into Football Team ownership. Clubs should not be run by people with no interest in the game, other than the money they can make from it. The Friedkins and the Glazers have zilch interest with what happens on the pitch. rnrnWhat did the Moyesiah say the other day. In every club there is a very powerful individual who can make decisions that no one can go against. I believe Friedkin gave the order to sell Harrison because it would be £40m pure or is that impure profit. When he was told by Kinnear, who speaks to him every day ( ha ha to that one ), the fans had mutinied he changed his mind and the deal was off. He didn\'t want anything to get in the way of selling off some of the club and bad publicity, was the last he needed. Well he ended up with it any way, with the fiasco on deadline day, caused by HIS CEO and the transfer team HIS CEO set up. rnrnI don\'t want EFC owned by a Bezos / M...
