Anyone for cricket.dreading tonight if i'm honest

13 Dec 2025 09:46:07
What is the highest score ever in PL, could be surpassed tonight.

13 Dec 2025 10:50:17
Park the bus Nigel. Rearguard action. Let's sort the men from the boys tonight. I'll even take a defeat with honour if we give a good account of ourselves but I won't take capitulation.

13 Dec 2025 12:46:14
I think it will be 8 nil. Gyokeres will score 5, Eze 2 and Trossard the other.

13 Dec 2025 12:50:09
I think man u did ipswich for 9, Banksy.

13 Dec 2025 15:39:39
Leics did Southampton 9 nil a few years back

13 Dec 2025 16:20:38
Can't possibly be 10 tonight.
Can it?

If we go into the Championship next season, we will be able to redevelop the stadium without it affecting crowd size.
There will be plenty of excess capacity.
Jeff is playing 4D chess. You guys should try to keep up.

Or handsome he's talking the the talk because his backs against the wall, and after the chants he heard the other night he had to say something to try and calm it down.

13 Dec 2025 08:43:23
Hes talking out of his arse

13 Dec 2025 09:04:59
He might have been better keeping his gob shut, cus it was all BS

13 Dec 2025 10:28:42
Did I hear Jeff say there is a financial plan for relegation?
The current cost base is well over £250m and debt is over £300m.
Income even allowing for the parachute payment - which after the first year declines sharply and has anyway been mortgaged to the "bank" - is circa £100m before stabilising after two or three years at somewhere between £30 and £50m - assuming the club survives in the Championship.


So he has a plan to cut £150m from the cost base in one year and perhaps another £50m or so the year after?
Given the playing wage bill is well under say £80m including NI, pension contributions etc etc even selling the entire squad and becoming the only "amateur " side in the football league would get nowhere near that!
Nor would it make even a small dent in the debt owed to the "bank and other clubs let alone Fosun!
So what is the plan and if it is so easy why hasn't he cut a mere £80m a year from costs, (which would still only have made Wolves as profitable as Brentford!), over the past few years so that the club could have retained the services of some of the players he has been forced to push out of the door at cut price fees!

I think when it comes from a financial point f view jeff is on point I don't see any problems with the club struggling financially. Its just his shocking football decisions that are poo.

that's how he keeps his job doing good maths for fosun. I got someone in the kkow at the mol who assures me jeff is no idiot when it comes to runnning a business profitable.

13 Dec 2025 15:33:24
Simon - Did your friend say which business?
As I have said many times before Jeff is certainly no idiot but he assumes, seemingly correctly, that most of the fans are.
He may well be doing an excellent job for Fosun but he certainly isn't for the football club- note the two are very different!
Huge losses over the past few seasons - pre-unsustainable player sales - certainly don't indicate a club with no problems.


Maybe your friend can explain 1) where the money has gone over the past few years, 2) how Jeff will square an income of £30-50m with costs of £250m and debt of over £300m over the medium term?

{Ed's Note - Ed001 has posted a new article entitled, Matchday 15 - Quick Round Up

12 Dec 2025 09:43:16
Could not bring myself to listen or read all of the interview with idiot Jeff. A few comments I have seen include, relegation is only a word, not serious. Club is in a much better place now then when he arrived, they are going to increase capacity by updating and expanding SB stand.
Unbelievable really, I would welcome improvement and expansion of the Steve Bull stand, however with relegation looming think the team is the priority.


As for relegation not a big deal, when it hits the profitability maybe he will change his attitude. Unless serious changes are made we will be lucky to survive in Championship.
Angry enough with a few comments not going to look or listen to any more.

Haven't heard or read the interview or Shi's opinions, but two things spring to mind,

1. If we sold and recruited appropriately we could form a winning team going for a championship winning prize.
The crowds would retain an Interest and the sky tv coverage plenty, (I don't know what the finances are and I'm assuming we get more per the coverage we get.)
So we may become buoyant and buzzing again, merchandise sales up and we can look forward.
Indeed it may even be the ideal time for the SBnk or SBul to be improved ready for a prem return.

2. We could sell and buy irresponsibly, struggle in the champ and see crowds and income plummet leaving us in a precarious position to contemplate any prem return.

I actually believe we can achieve the first, sensible recruitment, experienced players, a club captain to drive us and others dedicated to the cause, (I'm remembering the inces irwins and Hughes type acquisitions).
Out of darkness etc. I'm feeling things may not be all bad, but this emaressing season can be written off, and I don't really care what happens now.
That said I'm having a flutter on us to win tomorrow 16-1. Well funny things can happen.

What bit I heard of it, Shi is either a genius so far ahead of everyone else with his thinking or talking out of his backside.

12 Dec 2025 09:31:42
We DESPERATELY need a CAPTAIN there is obviously no leader either on the pitch or in the dressing room.
If only there was a younger Conor Coady out there!

12 Dec 2025 16:46:25
Two players who might be availible on loan in jan
Evan ferguson
Yves bissouma
Both need to play regularly
Thoughts guys
