I'm fed up with folk moaning we didnt get this we should have got that. We needed the money and quick. Brighton didn't therefore couid wait and wait and not even sell if they didnt get the required price they wanted
Partly that partly Cucurella didn't limit his options like Raph and Kalvin. Chelsea also over paid massively

Fair enough, it's just frustrating that everyone knows Raf was/is worth more than his fee and KP too but circumstances often seem to conspire against us. The Ridsdale legacy will continue for a while yet I guess.

Its actually a decent read, but if you have already made your mind up then you will probably just dis it as lies and spin.

Especially when all you posted was from a clickbait site that has lifted parts form the article to make its own headlines.

You get to smell the bullshit from a mile off and there is enough in the MOTLeeds site to plough a field.

Sounds like we are stuck with this perpetual state of relegation battle for the foreseeable

Radz spoke

“At the moment we are 56 per cent for Aser and 44 per cent 49ers, but the 49ers have an option starting in January 2024 to become a majority shareholder.

“It makes me very proud and it gives the opportunity for a club like Leeds to be growing with the leadership of mine and over time more from the 49ers. We have a great relationship and we will continue to work together.”

Doesn't really explain the transfer business.

Who pays? Does the equity change according to who pays?

Simon Jordan has branded Andrea Radrizzani as “arrogant” and believes his attitude could be why Leeds United have struggled to conclude deals in recent years.

Writing in his weekly column for Mail Plus (24 May), Jordan recalled a prior meeting with Radrizzani at the Qatar World Cup which clarified his thinking about the “lack of coherent” leadership in the Leeds boardroom.

“I have great admiration for his acumen in the media world, but he struck me as arrogant, off-hand and slightly away with himself,” he said.

“He was like a marginally more sophisticated version of former QPR owner Flavio Briatore. He had the old ‘look at me, I’ve just arrived in the room’ mentality.

“That sort of attitude might be why deals have been so difficult to conclude for Leeds and why mixed messages have been sent out at this dysfunctional, in cohesive football club because leadership has to start at the top.

“In the end, if you lack coherent thinking in your boardroom you will lack it in your dugout and ultimately on the pitch, ending up in the kind of mess that Leeds now find themselves in.”

Doesn't say anything we don't already know

Radz is arrogant and obsessed with Radz.

See he is teaming up with QSI for the Sampdoria takeover and we get the Venture capital fund.

God knows what's going on now

QSI reports they are helping Radz buy Sampdoria.

Then L'equipe mentioning QSI may look at us again in the future.

Now some reports in Italy that the 49ers may also be involved in the Sampdoria takeover and there may be some sort of weird club partnership.

Yeah I know you don't

But the worrying aspect would be if there is anything in this partnership thing and QSI are backing Sampdoria then we would be the feeder club.

Because obviously QSI would be a total game changer for Sampdoria

And it wouldn't be the clean break we need.
