If it really was 75M in GBP that's around 88.5M EUR... if you assume all bonuses up to 24M have already been paid and the sell-on drops to 10% then that would be a 64.5M profit for Sporting. So 10% of that is 6.45M EUR and that is just shy of 5.5M GBP for Cov. Would be a very nice wedge...

I hope this relationship is working well because it gives hope that a strong first team coach appointment could really level us up in terms of tactics and preparation. I imagine for someone like Robins who has operated for so long without data nerds and more progressive coaches, it is a bit of...

The availability doesn't necessarily mean the ticket is sold, right. As we all know from the various Wembley games over the years you can sit on tickets in your basket etc etc. These numbers are never going to be accurate but you can assume they are relatively accurate - and this indicates that...

Its basically flat since the last time I ran this on Wednesday: The scores on the doors today: ⬆️ North 3,609 of 5,271 - 68% season tickets sold or unavailable ➡️ East 8,616 of 9,487 - 91% season tickets sold or unavailable ⬇️ South 1,582 of 2,496 - 63% season tickets sold or unavailable ⬅️...

I would assume unless a specific new agreement is reached as part of the onward transfer, Coventry’s contract is with Sporting so it is them who owe Coventry the money. There might be accounting/tax reasons to change that but it would need to be a new agreement reached by Sporting, Coventry and...

Would love to see this move happen both for the kickback we’d get and to see if Gyok can take his game up another level but none of these reports are credible. Remember how chatty Fabrizio Romano was about Gyokeres last year? He hasn’t mentioned him in weeks which tells you there isn’t anything...

Well, I think like us they are a selling club - just on a very different level. So they will look to sell him on for a profit and there's only a few years of the contract where they can do that, unless they tie him down again - but he'll be 27 next year which might limit his forward potential a...

Their model is to sell players on to leagues / clubs with bigger budgets, so they're not under pressure per se but it is exactly what they aim to do. Vik had just about the best season possible last year so there’s a pretty decent chance he won't better it this season… Champions League success...

Sporting have and do sell below release fees, but this website and the tweet that echoed it are just blurting out things that are plausible… there’s no underlying new information here. We know that Arsenal were interested and have scouted Vik (multiple credible outlets reported that), we know...

The source for this isn’t credible and notably hasn’t been picked up by anyone credible, so I don’t think there’s any new information here.

Mamos for the superior beer!

Not sure about that - and yep it's a big IF. Depending on the business we do, many "starters" may end up being subbed much earlier than we are used to.

What O'Hare along with players like Binks would give us if we could retain them is optionality. It would allow Robins to do much more rotation and also change up the approach mid game stylistically... something he doesn't do a lot. If we can get a deeper squad even if they don't all fit a...

Dot counters 🧐 and nerds 🤓 update as of right now: ⬆️ North 3,545 of 5,271 - 67% season tickets sold or unavailable ➡️ East 8,444 of 9,487 - 89% season tickets sold or unavailable ⬇️ South 1,470 of 2,496 - 59% season tickets sold or unavailable ⬅️ West 2,160 of 2,220 - 97% season tickets sold...

What's weird is the total of all of those is 33,784 which is at least 1,000 over the maximum capacity... so I'm sure these numbers are wrong by at least that amount, but it's all a guessing game really.

That's very much the conclusion I have reached. You'd need at least 2 clubs with a 100M EUR budget to spend on a striker and for me it needs to be a Champion's League team for Gyok to consider the move. That really narrows down the field a lot. Any deal that happens would surely happen late...

Premiership football doesn't really excite me in the least, but I say that from a privileged position of being old enough to watch us for a good few years as a season ticket holder back in the Highfield Road days. For me I'm more excited about the money that a season in the Premiership would...
