Although we have no reason to be making these excuses, I genuinely think Gazidis really thought FFP would stick
Guardiola not wasting any time, he's buying players like he's in the £1 shop, he's after Stones now. All whilst we have to watch and put up with BS rumours that never come to fruition, this club wouldn't know about entertainment of fan satisfaction if it bit them in the arse.
Well of course we can't compete with Madrid, Barca, Bayern, Utd, City and PSG. They have infinitely much more money at their disposal, either from owners, local assistance or sponsorship advantages.
But no one is asking we compete pound for pound in terms of transfer spend. You don't need to in order to be competitive.
I think he fucked up saying that last week which is why the following day part of the Rob Holding statement contradicted alluded to more transfers, something we never do in the way it was phrased.
Simple it's money, they had no intention of ever turning us into a top club, just collecting the cash and lining their pockets with it (this goes from the top down).
Honestly they stuff they come out with and have come out with in the last decade is a p*ss take, they take fans for mugs.
It is kinda going in their pockets, Stan wasn't around when the stadum was dreamt up, all those involved made a killing out of their shares when they sold, Wenger also made a killing in terms of pay and all those involved since have also made a packet, the only ones who really have seen very little benefit are those that fund the club, yup you guessed it the fans.
Now we've gone a new stadium but a sh*t, stingy football club to go with it, what a great result.
