Fucking hell, isn't that close to £250 million?

apparently due to FFP and fudging their figures

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

Not worried about any relegation are they, there will be some really sad faces when they get virtually not punishment for their misdemeanours.

 

[skybluecam]

wonder if there's a relegation release clause in there

I always assumed he would be off to Madrid or Barca in a few years, this has surprised me

 

[David O'Day]

apparently due to FFP and fudging their figures

yeah but spread over the 9.5 years it's still 26 million on their accounts per year

madness for both

That's basic. Bonus related on top of that!

Haaland showing that he's got zero ambition, wouldn't be surprised if he's a spent force half way through that contract

Feels like a harsh reading to me - he’s already played in four countries, won trophies in three of them. I suppose he could go join another mega-club at PSG or Real Madrid but maybe he just wants to cement a reputation in one place? (And yeah the money probably helps too)

I reckon it’s a message to Real Madrid to say you’ll have to pay mega bucks to get him.
