Probably!Am I the only person not bothered if he goes to Leicester or Southampton?

He's pretty much grown up with George Thomas so that'll play a role too I guess.
Didn’t you want to call a “taxi for Robins”?
At many points last season it seemed we won't make the autos, then the play-offs and might end up outside the promotion pack. Luckily we managed to pull a run together at the end of the season to get there. My assessment will always change during a season.
Robins will not get a penny from Sisu. The club is being run on a self-sufficient basis.
As for assessments...the fact you still don't rate Biamou is hilarious. If Biamou didn't put the shift and goals he got in the later half of the season we wouldn't have made it. He complemented MM fantastically.
Didn't the accounts show 2-2.5million (can't remember the exact amount) in admin charges last year? That's money out of the club.
If SISU had invested some decent money in us two or 3 years ago, got us established in the championship, and kept hold of Maddison, they would be looking at a £20 million payday now, more than the club is currently worth. Add to that the probability that Bayliss could be worth a similar amount on a couple of years.
Ifs & buts, I know, but good business people who have a thorough knowledge of their business usually get these things right.
I spoke to someone in a high position within the club and he told me that both Wembley matches and the odd chunk of money from player sales etc basically goes to cover the clubs running losses year on year , if you imagine we need say 12k attendance l to cover running costs ( maybe 15k if they throw a few quid in for some half decent transfers ) and we get maybe 7-8k on average gate over the season , then it doesnt take a genius to work out we need to cover losses with things like this. ( not saying those numbers are what we are talking about, but our gate doesn’t cover costs by some margin ) He said robins gets his budget and cup runs and player sales have little impact on that , it just plugs the gap for the losses the club make

No. It doesn't matter to me where he goes.Am I the only person not bothered if he goes to Leicester or Southampton?

Many club owners have “invested” well over £100 million to just tread water in the championship - are you saying these are good business people?
If I didn't know so many Leicester fans I wouldn't have been so bothered.
Its just fucking tiring to hear the same old 'Can we wash the Cov off him before he joins' line. Ha fucking ha.
To be honest I thought he would be making a bigger move than that, and knowing the way Leicester play and how negative Puel is, I cant see how he will fit into their system.
I get your pointMany club owners have “invested” well over £100 million to just tread water in the championship - are you saying these are good business people?
As I said, I get your point, but does that mean we can never expect to get into the championship with a realistic chance of staying there?Many club owners have “invested” well over £100 million to just tread water in the championship - are you saying these are good business people?
Tbh Robins probably wouldn't want too much for fees to pay other clubsLook at it this way, Leicester will be helping to finance our success with a large chunk of money partly financed by their fans :happy:
I Wonder what happens to the extra clauses in his sale from us , premier league debut
England cap etc ,
Said we sold him for 2.5 million but could rise to 6 million and a sell on clause in aswell ,
So what happens to this extra 3.5 million we would have got if he stayed at Norwich and they got promoted etc ????
