Was just about to post this. I’ve thought the bubble would burst for 15-20 years now but it seems to be getting ‘worse’ by the season and shows no sign of changing anytime soon.

Yeah but fuck that, we want two centre backs, two wingers, a 6, 8, and 10 (I forget which one but probably all three) and they all have to be top six quality. Going pop isn’t that important mun.

Indeed. Also shows why despite what we may hope, Vipotnik and Galbraith will certainly be available if a club makes us a good enough offer for either of them.

We had the joint 4th biggest loss in the 24/25 season at 21.6m

Its easy to see why the new ownership want to make significant efforts to improve our revenue streams which is amongst the lowest in the division which considering recent club history is pretty far from sustainable and a damning indictment of the stewardship of the previous ownership.

Galbraith's injury will hopefully damp down summer interest - as I really want him to stay. I like Vipotnik too - and we did great to extend his contract - BUT
With Idah already here - I would absolutely cash in on Vip in the summer to provide the resources to balance the books and invest. IMO he does not have the pace for the very top level -and his stock will never be higher. Additionally his lack of explosive pace hinders the press that Matos values so highly.
