What money and what value? None of us know the truth, only paper talk TT.I think he's been told that he has the job CJJ but he sems intent on having his side of the story aired in public.
Not sure that's the best way forward, the best way to negotiate or that he's being realistic with his demands not to sell anyone.
I reckon 99% want him to stay and , if Iwas him, I'd be making sure i got a call in to the prince today
He's already had that money Chips and much of it has produced very little.
If you're referring to the parachute payments then you have to take into account the loss of revenues from this year we need to cover, the lowered receipts in the Champ, the cost of players' contracts ( hopefully we had the good sense to include a relegation reduction clause), the increased operating costs of the club with it's PL set up ( either redundancy payments or for increased wages/staffing levels).
There is of course the McCabe model to follow- Employ a no mark big name ego boosting manager,let him bring in mates, has beens and cronies on expensive contracts, fail spectacularly and then spend a decade recouping you loss.
CW produced a good team for last season's 9th place. And we all know not all transfer work out and, as an example, we all thought Lys was fantastic after the
Everton game. Easy this manager lark.
