The Premier League 2024/25

[Paplane]

It collapsed because of the size of the debt repayment to the 777 investors that kept them afloat last season

600m owed to 3 external debtors
400m owed to Moshiri in loans 
Still need 80m to complete stadium.

Expensive deal to buy them

Moshiri ain't getting his money back so the new owners will walk in and get a shiny new stadium without having to wait 5 years to get it built. It's a good purchase if they can fund it short term.

Go on Pap get in there.

Lend us £700m Sniff.

[The reds]

I thought it had been particularly quiet for the transfer window as a whole. 
But £950m has been spent this window already. Likely to go over 1BN in the next week.

Speculation that John Textor - the owner of Crystal Palace and our friends Lyon - is selling his shares in Palace as he's on the verge of buying a different English club.

Of course some people are looking at the transactions between Forest and Lyon and putting two and two together.....

Aren't various parties looking at Everton? I think I heard his name mentioned in that regard.

Somebody asked the journo (Ed Aarons) who bloke this story about Everton and he said his understanding was that, though Textor had been looking at Everton before, it wasn't them.

Understand that there are 14 investors who have indicated an interest in buying John Textor’s shares in Crystal Palace. Unclear at this stage whether his 40% will be sold to one or more of them. Textor understood to be close to buying more than 80% of another English club. Just to clarify that I don’t believe Textor has been in contact with Everton since the deal with the Friedkin group collapsed. He is close to taking over another English club

Think Tottenham is the most likely takeover if he can afford it.

Fulham starting to be more active in this window

Emile Smith Rowe for £35m
Ryan Sessegnon on a Free

Both of them are sick notes. Smith Rowe isn’t worth that IMO, would imagine heavily structured deal.

Sessegnon might've been a nice fit for us, although has yet to do anything at PL level even when fit.

We were heavily linked at the start of last summer, until he got injured again.

Southampton just signed a promising Brazilian left back and striker, exactly what we need. To be fair the striker has barely kicked a ball in anger. But come on Forest get it sorted!

[The reds]

I know it is only pre season but I had a watch of Ipswich game earlier - they were countered very easily by a Bundesliga.2 side. They need some serious work done to survive.
