That sounds a little hypocritical, at the very least.

How? I'm bemoaning Chelsea's contribution to driving up transfer fees and wages too.

Happy for them, hopefully they put two fingers up to FFP and start buying players from the other ‘big six’

takes the heat off us as well like we did to Chelsea

TV money is the biggest driver I think, but yes the Neymar deal did feel like a big moment in football when it comes to transfers and wages.

They deserve, i cant begrudge. Another thing with them being only team in town with big stadium and fanbase, they really are sleeping giant. Im surprised this dint happen earlier.

Why will it effect the rags and dippers

Because it will be another club that can challenge for the big money signings, thus reducing the number of top-quality players that the rags and Littlewoods can buy for themselves.

Yanks and Saudis are in bed together.

At least there is another dictatorship to deflect from us, and the heat will be off them when Lukashenko takes over Everton.

You were lucky to have a room. We used to have to live in a corridor.

Corridor? Bloody luxury mate. We lived in a dog kennel, complete with dog.
