Not enough discussion about this. Increasing American ownership of English football clubs.

Not good at all....

...unless it's Manchester United.

Quick glance and I thought it was Leonard Rossiter for a min.

…erm, erm Miss Jones, Miss Jones.

Someone needs to tell them that they are in England, not 'murica. And that they're in for a shock when they find out how "aluminium" is pronounced. Same with "route".

Many thanks for reminding me to take out the trash
(I know, Saturday is an unbelievable day for Stockport Council to be collecting, but since our usual day is Thursday, it suddenly all becomes so much clearer)

We should bring Palmer back home, ideal replacement for Bernardo next season. Would fit right in, no waiting around for 12 months and knows the system. It doesn't matter whats happened, the past is the past I just think he is an ideal fit for us.

Palmer is not good enough

Been saying it for a few years now. They are the biggest danger to our game and the problem is that we now can't regain it as there has been too much infiltration.

And our dopey media have been too thick to see it coming

When the main sports broadcaster is owned by a US media company they are bound to ignore it

 

[Salford_Blue]

There certainly seems to be something about American owners infiltrating English football. And there was I thinking we were ruining football.

Concerns me that City have American investment as well tbh.

I've got it in my head we could be up for auction soon. No evidence, but as you rightly say, this infiltration is worrying.

Stadium will look amazing in next couple of years and with Pep potentially leaving in the near future, it could be the right time for HRH to sell up when his asset is at peak valuation.

If Wrexham make it in to prem we are screwed. Yanks will use this cheap model for quick buck!

Strasbourg are looking to bring in Brian Barry Murphy if Rosenior ends up at Chelsea
Talk about swings and roundabouts.

Feels like Sky are pushing them at every opportunity as well?

Well i suppose if he does a good job they won't grumble about handing him a contract of that length ..... it doesn't look like he really 'ripped up any trees' at Strasbourg though, from what I can see, but only time will tell how he does at the Bridge!

Pep's probably got a lifetime contract here, if he wants one !

 

[jimharri]

I wish him well, he always came across as a decent bloke when he was a pundit on Sky. But, as has already been said, 6 years is ludicrous. Knowing that club, he'll do well to last half of that.

 

[Semper aggressus]

More chance of Starmer lasting six years than this fella.

 

[deano ou812]

6 years ! Is that all should have pushed the boat out and made it 9 years ..

 

[KentBlue]

Nah! It's 6 years for everyone else, but with Chelsea it's only 2 weeks.

 

[nijinsky69]

The headlines will be 6 year contract but if Chelsea have any sense, the devil will be in the detail.
