IMO he deserves a new deal, he has laid the foundations for a bright future with the youth setups etc and the last thing we need is a new person coming in with different philosophies and changing everything around. No one in the present working scenario can do a better job here, not even mourinho.
True.
So, we now have to settle for it, easily the most important part of our future, and we have to settle for it. Its ridiculous....
Why show us the big beautiful picture in the first place?
Well, say if DIC come in and buy them off, wouldnt they be looking to finance the stadium the same way, thats what i remember read back when they were heavily linked with us. So maybe it wont help us in this situation....
Yeah, thats correct. So, then we can safely say they follow Parry's methods of working...
Wonder how they're other 'franchises' are doing back in the states....
yeah, heard about them. So, whats the best option for us then, a reduced loan amount, which means changing the design to fit in the new budget. Which is exactly what we are doing.. so blaming the owners is not correct i suppose....
So, and this may sound stupid, but if Lakshmi Mittal purchased us, our stadium wouldn't really be a problem?
Why use American banks then, whats the situation like in Europe?
So, that must have been done for the present design as well.
Still, why do the extravagant designs if you know the costs will escalate and you may have trouble securing loans. Im not into the markets and credit and all that stuff, any idea where exactly have they gotten stuck in this whole getting the finances secured procedure?
Whats to say that 400m whatever estimate will increase by the time they review the old design and modify and resubmit it. So much for so called stability at the club.
Lol, honestly though, werent we going to lose some european comm money 9m or so if we didnt begin construction before some stipulated time? Delay after delay and not one brick has been laid yet. Crap.
Thats immaterial now.
IF our owners are as experienced as they were perceived to be, then shouldnt they have held preliminary talks about financing the stadium as the planning comm was looking at it. And shouldnt they have estimated a range of increase of cost. The Hammers are making a 60k seater in 250m by the looks of it, and we are all set to make the new Wembley.... fucking ridiculous.
I dont know how fucking parry sleeps at night.
If England manage to reach the Final in South Africa, who would care if they do it playing total football, or getting ugly wins? No one.
Capello ought to get Zola in his staff though, he needs someone who knows england and can speak italian, zola can teach the english forwards some linking up and finishing as well.....
Well maybe he was in there to help his friend set up stuff, wasn't eggie a part of the icelandic FA for a good while? He must have better knowledge about the administration etc which must have helped the transition for the new dude. We have Parry doing that, cant get shadier than Ronald can you?
