    Reference sending players to do Sky interviews, is it now time to send an unused substitute to do them, just as a wind up?

    Step one: sign a player with virtually no grasp of English.

    Step two: designate them to conduct all interviews with Sky.

    Is this why we're hanging on to Gastòn and Mayuka?

    That might have a horrifying side effect: making me feel sorry for a Sky presenter.

    Yes, I believe the current TV deal could level the playing field, or at least gives it less bias; in terms of the quality of players across the competing clubs. A kind of subsidized FFP. You're right these are interesting times of the likes of us, Swansea, Stoke, and clubs right down the league. I think West Ham are rather unfairly being assisted into an advantageous situation, and could well attract ManCity/Chelsea like potential owners. So conversely another beast may loom to try and suck the life out of the young and vibrant

    Or tell Sky the player is just speaking to BT Sport, as the soon to be leading football outlet, and will be with them as soon as he's finished :)

    I agree. Boris Johnson has given them the biggest leg-up it's possible to do without actually passing a huge wad of cash. Effectively, he has given them the opportunity to turn themselves into a glamour club without much effort. All they have to do is cock it up, and that will be difficult to do.

    Yep. And he's not a striker really (though he'd of course be an asset for them).

    United have hired 'random gossip generator' as their director of football, and now are just flinging random amounts of money on random players.

    Does Bale have a buy out clause in his contract?
