Player trading is essential, which makes it baffling that we are signing Richarlison, Tete, Norgard and Grealish, all of whom will walk for free and have no sell on capabilityGash wrote: Sun Aug 30, 2026 11:15 am I don't think we've made a significant sale since Onana, that doesn't help balance to books. Our player trading has been appauling even though people try to moan that we shouldn't be selling players for a decent profit. It's not sustainable to work like we have over the last several years.

Re: The Friedkin Group
Paddy Boyland, Orntein and Joyce all have direct links to the club, so no reason to doubt much of what we've heard in the last few days.NickNack wrote: Sun Aug 30, 2026 11:19 am It’s not easy to determine the facts from journalists reacting to rumours or making shit up.
So in summary:
NickNack, Paddy's whack, he called Grealish on loan, Joyce is right Richie's coming home.

Filling our team up with aging players past their best who’ll have no resale value?Shogun wrote: Sun Aug 30, 2026 10:49 am I can't believe we've effectively valued Ndiaye at £25m more than Richarlison.
All this time and their extensive network has identified Richarlison, Grealish and Tete as the players to bring in.
Heads need to roll. Kinnear and this whole committee have to go.
At least he managed to win a cup at West Ham before it all came crashing down…

Angus going around the Everton channels last week like the big man for no reason with absolutely no mention that we were sailing close to SCR issues. A confident moron that would belong in the Moshiri era.
Between this and the happily dissatisfied quote then it's pretty clear why he has such a low reputation with his former club Leeds. Get him gone.

He is a slimy cunt.
I don't want the CEO of the club leaning back with arms out being all best pals with fan groups.
Have a bit of professional awareness ffs

We really have been shite at appointing CEO's for as long as I can remember, for such a huge global high profile business.

Our squads average age is still under 25. O'Brien, hackney, garner, Armstrong, Aznou, George, Barry, Rohl and even KDH all represent future sales for reinvestment.

There is a world of talent outside of the top 6 radar, we just need to be better at identifying and acting on it. As well as developing it too.
