Seems odd that Sporting keep turning up to these meetings if they are only willing to accept the release fee though hey,
Is Porro home grown - he was a city for a few years?
It's like levy is taking the public sector approach to transfers, let's have a meeting about a meeting...
Probably on Teams or Zoom
I think they must have played for an FA affiliated club for 3 years before the age of 21.
Maybe we only have the free version of Zoom so every meeting is limited to 45 minutes? That would explain the delay.
Are the meetings whilst passing each other on the staircase
Oh I'm not doubting there's a purpose to it, and I'm sure it'll lead to a sale, I just find it comical to have the exact same update every day.
I'm talking revenue not profit, so supplier cut is irrelevant. I probably should have been more accurate and stated "alcohol" not beer. Don't forget this includes the corporate side as well. Yes the number of people there are smaller but there will be minimum alcohol spend and a lot of corporates will order 5x as much as they need just so they look well stocked. The restaurants will also sell more expensive alcohol too.
I believe it's just alcohol.
Not sure if you've just arrived in this thread, but the sticking point is that they want us to activate the buy out clause, which would then be due in one lump sum. Almost all clubs pay for almost all their players in instalments, and Spurs are definitely one of the clubs that structure deals both in terms of payments and in terms of amounts due against meeting certain milestones. Buy out clause activation would nullify all of this and as such would likely be seen as the very last option to get this deal done.
