I will walk away if that is truly the case (feeder club ambitions).

I will not invest my life energy into some yank billionaires for-profit schemes

Make no mistake about it.

The Gallagher sale if it happens, is a Wyss- driven, pure profit move.

Profit from the investment made by Roman in the Cobham academy.

Sell Cobham youth for profit, and buy dregs to fill up the squad.

He was pretty scary (bad) against Wolves tho. Looks like getting a replacement shouldn't be too hard.

The fans need to  wake up to see what is  going on behind the scenes trust the process
what is the process to sabotage the club with unprofessional decisions to gutted  identity on the club for the next 10 years so this process is on .  Making money is all about .

You can't just buy 15 kids and throw them in at the same time and to expect  everything to click  and  everyone of them will be a super star in 2 years football doesn't work like that especially when these kids don't have people to learn from.
This is illussion if they think this will work .At the moment, every win we get will only fuel this illusion that their project is working. But reality is we are worse and worse breaking every negative record .

If they only want to make money , why have they been spending so much? Surely we have to win stuff for our value to increase ?

About spending money - don't let the transfer fees fool you.

The overall objective is bring down the wage bill. It's also why all the incoming signings are made to sign long term contracts to keep them locked down on those wages for as long as possible.

How about Boehly asking how would +100 points team look like? That is suggesting he is here to win!

One game in a season where he’s been one of our best if not our best player though? And much better than the likes of Enzo and Moises who cost £220m between them….. some of you lot are on one.

It's not a number for me personally. I see certain things from players which have different weights.

Ball control, for example, if pretty fucking high in importance for me, so when I see players struggling controlling the football well that's also a big fucking red flag for me. It's hardly the first time I've seen Conor taking a few extra touches to control the football, show too much of it, or having a poor first touch.

Perhaps the fact he's been one of our best player shows exactly the (poor) level we are at? 🤷‍♂️

Would he be a starter at Liverpool, City, Arsenal, Tottenham, or even Newcastle? can't see that myself tbh.

He’d only standout at a shit team or a top team having an awful season. And even then he’d stand out by “his effort” not by scoring a load of goals. “At least he looks like he’s trying “ - simple Passion merchant

Probably has more chance of winning a Golden Globe than us winning a trophy under his ownership.

For what they spending we should  to ask .

They don't even take the best of the best in the children they buy and for which they propagandize . They are spending to build this Multiclub project with clubs from Europe to develop like Salzburg, Leipzig ,  flip flop players around is all about

They even admit  that Chelsea was bought cheap because of the sanctions, otherwise Abramovich would have asked for much more. They accept Chelsea as a business and when they build the new stadium and turn the wheel a few more times they will present this product to the next buyer from whom they will take double what they gave for the club. Their whole idea is profit, not building a successful club.They don't care about PL , CL etc they will push  to create a Super League with the other teams  , closed league like in USA .

Sweet words cannot hide the truth that we continue to be tragic even against teams like Luton, Palace, Preston. When Pochettino  comes out and says that  10place  is something normal, then the red flag should light up brightly . And  we have 1 billion spent on our backs and we are still crying out for a striker.

Need to start protests at the ground against him 

[Fulham Broadway 17,299]

The emails I get from the club are embarrassing.  They seem to want us to think we're riding a huge successful wave, more so than at any other time, rather than the biggest slump in results for more than 30 years

If these protests are anything like the ManUre's, they will be worthless. Now, if the ticket holding fans protested and then refused to go in and watch the game, an empty or half empty stadium would really have an effect on their investment..
