Top Zoltaneering from yourself and Tassie goodpost:)

Must confess, I had to look it up and yes, you're spot on. That's exactly what I was doing, what a great word.
But a word I'm sure the old numbers wouldn't know either. ;)
It's not even a proper fucking word. It's a made up one that he uses occasionally in an effort to impress. The only dictionary you'll find this word in is the urban one. He'll be using WAP and obnoxion next.

No clubs going bust because of Covid crisis.

Didn`t I mention 2 weeks ago on how surprised I was about the spending,so no need to keep repeating it.

Even if it dosen`t match the £1.4 Million,I would say the moral victory is yours.Money has been spent well over on what I thought would be spent.So well done.I WILL CONGRATULATE YOU.

So I am handing you victory on this subject.I will always be gracious, win or lose.

Clubs going bust is a different matter though.
Tel, only reason this window inflated so far is because of Cheats spending £220m against last year where they couldn’t spend. Now been able to spend as much as you want due to relaxing of FFP only helps those clubs with the mega rich benefactors.

Don’t let Numbnuts fool you, most other clubs are well behind what they spent last year, Including us. :lol:

He said no clubs will be in trouble or going bust.

I know. But what i'm getting at is the article. Government handouts would look out of sync while the big boys are allowed to spend squillions.

So 1.2 billion spent this window, 1.4 billion last summer by my calculations that is a 15% drop off.

Excluding the Cheats extravagance of 220m from this window to do a fair comparison as they had transfer ban last summer.
Would make it approx 30% drop off!

Considering how year on year there has always been a significant increase on spending, it would seem Covid-19 has had quite a big impact on clubs spending This summer.

Our board will be mightily pleased as they have made a tidy profit and saved on wages.
