Jim White was big on the story this morning because it's perfectly ok for the rags to spend this amount of money 2 seasons running because thats what big clubs do

Not long ago he was complaing about the money we spent on eddie and bernie

This is going to be funny as fuck if it falls through because Everton want more dough.

Think the overseas sale of premiers rights brings in more than the sky bt one.

I can only see it getting bigger! its our national sport never ending social media and papers are full of football 24/7

Declining subscriptions and ratings isn't a sign of growth.

Now almost everybody has the Internet and can stream games instead of paying Sky (more so) and BT an astronomical fee.

Lakaku is a very good player but is no where near worth 75 million plus add on's.

SWP? :-)

Well done on taking it literally!

Whatever, last summer it was Dogbreath and Big Nose, this summer it's Lukaku and Matic. All of them 6ft 4', and part of a squad that already includes Carrick 6-2, Hair Bear 6-4, Valencia 6-2, Smalling 6-5, Bailly 6-4, Shaw 6-2, De Gea 6-4, plus Rashford, Rojo, Martial and the Human Gargoyle who aren't exactly short. Mourinho's a shithouse, who's gotten away with strongarm tactics and snide behaviour for years. Unfortunately for him though, football moves on. City, Chelsea, Spurs and even the dippers have raised the bar in footballing terms over the last 5 years, and no matter what he spends to try and bridge the cap, he won't be able to. He was shit last season and absolutely diabolical the season before that. His time is over

Well next tv deal we will find out who is right or wrong

It would be amusing if Lukaku was the first 100 million pound footballer.

Great transfer this, sums up what the Rags are about these days, spending record fees on players and hoping it will work out. Hopefully turn out to be as good a transfer as Bony was for us!

They've always been about that. Just they don't ever get called out about it.
