duff: i'd be very surprised if ENIC put money into it. your wouldnt have gone for the government money or been so keen on a rented stadium if they were willing to front money for the project.
btw, not a single member of the arsenal board put a single penny into our stadium.
and to put things further into perspective, i own more of arsenal than 80% of the board.

nice bit of PR spin there from liverpool.
that shirt deal was announced nearly a year ago, before adidas decided to announce to the world that they were a bad investment.
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1379466/Liverpools-mammoth-25m-year-Warrior-kit-deal-rewrites-record-books.htmlliverpools business plan is based on commercial revenue.
they cant compete on match day revenue. they have no corporate/premium seats etc was down £6m in last years accounts,
and on last years books, commercial revenue was down £6m, nearly 10%.

he still cost £20m, and carroll still cost £35m. so they are spending big, thats their business model. shame they are choosing to spend it on these players.

Which would make slightly more sense (navy), but reckon it's just an early prototype. Recall early pics of our away 09/10 shirt being dark green.

Arsenal kit looks really good IMO

I have no Arsenal/Tottenham bias whatsoever, but I would be absolutely amazed if the hottest property in football (aside from Neymar who is already spoken for anyway) moves to Spurs.

he wants a move in summer and is talking the talk. Would love him at city though, he wouldn't be crowded out either, we need a quick winger. If he goes to spurs we'll take monkey boy
no chance at all. if he goes, it will be barca

said he'll move to england….can't be too far down the pecking order for young players who want to play attacking football that suits them. reckon it will be us or utd.

The thing is, he's expensive enough that clubs need to consider whether he's worth it for their financial fair play, so not quite as simple as saying City will just snap him up.
15 Feb 2012 15:44
It was tongue in cheek, I don't think or want city to sign Bale. It's all bullshit at this point in the season anyway
