    Listen I get the disappointment I really do, but the main difference between what we offered and what Chelsea offered is that they offered 60 odd million cash up front, unless the Kroenkes are prepared to do that for us…I can’t see how it comes down to a failed negotiation strategy.
    You can complain that the Kroenkes are not giving us enough funds to compete but that’s a different matter entirely

    That our alternative target appears to be Raphinia, suggests there is a downside to clubs spending beyond their means in the hope of short term success. For all we know, we might end up with Mudryk in a year or two because Chelsea are having to do a fire sale.
    More examples of the delusional hypocritical bullshit up here.

    When you've gotten off your high horse, you can educate me how our first period of dominance in the 30's came from always doing the right thing and being the moral compass of English football.

    You can also tell me how much you hated Graham's success because he took bungs. Then you can tell me how annoyed you got when AW started scouring the globe looking for cheap undervalued international (mostly African) talent to fill an ENGLISH premier league club, not giving a damn about the other countries or leagues they came from ( we even had the audacity to buy a feeder club in Belgium to make our Trans Atlantic rape easier). Then tell me how angry you got when we were one of the first clubs to field a non British starting 11.

    Then you can go on an tell me how disgusted you felt by every goal Walcott scored when we took the innocence out of youth football in this country.

    Ah don't forget to also point out how you feel that every goal Nketiah scores gives you more joy and pleasure than anything you witnessed from our break the record signings like Sanchez, Ozil, Laca and Auba.

    Please give the f*king hypocrisy a rest.

    For a long period in time we use to compete with all we had (f*ck, even resources we didn't have), we don't anymore, thats the summary of our years under Kronke, pretending to compete.

    If you're happy with that, then good on you.
