Jim Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 The way they are run never ceases to amaze me. As good a set-up as there is around in World Football IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellis Rimmer Posted September 16, 2021 Share Posted September 16, 2021 Why? The always lose to Bayern in the league and have good players for a couple of season before having them taken away. They have a huge stadium and loads of fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did I compare them to us? What I was suggesting was if we adopted a similar model relative to our status. For instance picking up players for relative sums, improve them, get some mileage out of them subsequently improving our status then selling them on for a profit rather than the model we’ve adopted in the recent past, pay top dollar, see the players flounder, see our status decrease then let them go for nothing. If you saw in my post that I was comparing us to Borussia Dortmund then the Invisible Man won’t be keeping his anonymity for much longer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
