I’m sure they will pump trillions in before they give up so they will have plenty of time to build fan base mikus. It will be far above anything MLS can do in terms of the number of top players it can bring in, seemingly in their primes too.
I think they will have a huge market in 10 years time mate. It’s almost inevitable.

25th July 2023 at 8:31 pm #207699You might be right Lucky. Global streaming/broadcasting has changed things & reading up a bit more about it, the game is quite popular over there. Also, I think Europe is having to come to terms that it’s just not that wealthy anymore on the global stage. Indeed, about 15 years ago, Europe’s economy was apparently $1.5 trillion larger than the US’s. However, today the US economy is bigger and by some distance.

25th July 2023 at 9:28 pm #207700Can’t say for one second the Al-Bundy League is going to put any fizz into my beanz… maybe it will create a large enough “fanbase” to sustain itself eventually, but this house won’t be part of it. It’s all about the Spuds and those teams that happen to be in the same league…

25th July 2023 at 10:07 pm #207701Fabino’s move has collapsed me thinks; could well be for the best keeping hold of him.

26th July 2023 at 5:23 am #207702One for Chucky
Tottenham Hotspur owner Joe Lewis has been charged with “orchestrating a brazen insider trader scheme”, US attorney Damian Williams has said.
Mr Williams used a video announcement to accuse the British billionaire of using inside information to “shower gifts on his friends and lovers”.
Mr Lewis “has been indicted and will face justice” in the Southern District of New York (SDNY), Mr Williams said.
BBC News has approached Tottenham Hotspur and Mr Lewis for comment.
In the video statement, posted on Twitter, Mr Williams set out a series of allegations against Mr Lewis. A formal written statement, known as an indictment, has yet to be released.
“We allege that, for years, Joe Lewis abused his access to corporate board rooms and repeatedly provided inside information to his romantic partners, his personal assistants, his private pilots, and his friends,” Mr Williams said in the video.
Mr Williams, the chief federal law enforcement officer for the SDNY, alleged that Mr Lewis’s acquaintances used that information to make millions of dollars in the stock market.
“Thanks to [Mr] Lewis, those bets were a sure thing,” he claimed.
Mr Lewis owns hundreds of assets, including Premier League London club Spurs and a stake in UK pub chain Mitchells & Butlers. Forbes magazine has recently estimated his fortune at Β£4.73bn ($6.1bn).

26th July 2023 at 10:35 am #207705The question will be asked ” Was Daniel Levy privy to the insider trading info ” due to his close relationship to Joe Lewis? This could have a huge impact on THFC if he were to be found guilty.

26th July 2023 at 11:14 am #207706Thought you’d like that Chucky!
If you trawled through ALL the club owners you’ll find a graveyard of skeletons.
Either ownership is accepted for all of its limitations or you say UK citizens only with an impeccable background. Do they exist?
The ownership bar is already pretty high_____________________________

26th July 2023 at 11:17 am #207707Allydick. Almost certainly privy at some time but maybe 20 years ago. Start digging and unnecessary chaos.
As I suggested previously ditch this unworkable FFP rubbish and have a completely fresh look at football finances. Starting with debt to equity._____________________________

26th July 2023 at 1:10 pm #207708Adlab, obtuse false equivalency.
It is genuinely frustrating to be honest.
If the owners of spurs have acted in a disingenuous way to give spurs an unfair advantage I have yet to see evidence of the unfair advantage π€£

26th July 2023 at 4:45 pm #207709Lucky. Didn’t say that. Merely that most ownership has a skeleton or two
Don’t know enough about Spurs owner or how he built his wealth.
The only advantage as you put indeed is via investment._____________________________

26th July 2023 at 9:09 pm #207710Mbappe now refusing to meet with the Saudi club, as is his perogative of course.
He will likely stay at PSG for last season of contract picking up 100m in the process, which includes a loyalty bonus π€£
PSG deserve nothing better.

27th July 2023 at 12:30 pm #207714One of the main aims for all this is getting the world cup in 2030 for Saudi Arabia.

27th July 2023 at 6:46 pm #207717So what do the winners of the Saudi League do?
How long before they get into the Champions league.Daft as it sounds by comparison, Australia are in the Eurovision Song Contest. Since when was Australia in Europe.
As always money talks.
