Puma must be a little addled IMHO £34m! pa (Christ you could sign Bentley nearly for that)
Hahahaha. Let's hop something is lost in translation. Not that I think of the Mirror Group as anything but a bunch of recovering or full-blown alcies plucking stories from their nether regions, but dont a couple of their numbers have quite good connections to the nomads?

I'm quite worried tbh. It shows just what a cash-cow the CL is. Money makes money. Broken roecord time, badly need the stadium up and running. It's the only viable long-term way we'll have a hope in hell.

But (and I do 'wait') we must keep making baby steps in the right direction.

That could just be keeping ahead of the Liverpool clubs and maintaining a top four challenge like this year.

CL would be of course be great, but the pragmatist in me thinks we are doing fine considering our direct opponents.

Tonight is a case in point.......being involved in the war is a great result in itself IMHO.

The tramps have just gone out and bought a load of our old cast offs, dyed them red and ironed on their own badges!!

I would think that's some lazy photoshopping but would love it if it where true. Be funny as shit. .The cash they are receiving however is not quite so funny, that is silly money! I would be happy for Spurs to wear real dead cats for that kind of cash.

doesn't Joe Lewis own Puma ?
Nah you're getting confused with the similar sounding Tavistock Group.

Easily done

Actually, there was some link between the Tavistock Group (which Joe Lewis owns) and Puma.

Tavistock owned the Mexican distribution rights of Puma, but I believe Puma started buying those rights back around 2006, which happened to be the same year we got puma? So there does seem to have been some board level connections, and Tavistock may for a time have had a stake in Puma, but would likely be a very small percentage (Puma are huge!).

They might be shit quality but that's a lot of money, if they can somehow get Usmanov overall control ( UK's richest man ) they would be a bigger force than Chelsea of Man City.

Hope Wenger and Kroenke stay for another decade yet

It's all well and good saying more money will make them the most powerful, but they never spend that money. The only time I see that happening is when Wenger leaves and the new manager has to buy a new squad of players to compensate.

Wenger doesn't because he is stubborn, why do you think I want him to stay there

I call bullshit. That or massive change of heart from puma, who wanted to concentrate on smaller clubs. Theory was the Man U have to play against a team, so value for money wise it's worth being on the other shirts, not the biggies.

Arsenal are a smaller team.
