Buckinghamshire council spent £819 million over a five year contract period on taxis. £163 million a year on average.
This is insane. The council could run an equivalent transport service for a fraction of this cost
Steve Nickson was part of a recruitment team at #nufc. The last player he played a major role in identifying and signing was Sven Botman. He played a role in the signing of Bruno too 🙌🏻
He signed Allan Saint Maximin 👏🏻 and Miguel Almiron 👏🏻as well as Joelinton as a centre forward 😬
He’s not led transfers for a long time. He wasn’t behind the signing of Tonali, Thiaw, Hall, Isak, Osula, Gordon or Livramento. And no he wasn’t leading last summer’s less successful window either.
He leaves with everyone’s best wishes but Newcastle have got Ross Wilson leading things. Eddie Howe has the final say on players as he always has done. More hits than misses. They’ll be fine
The blueprint 2/2
Křetínský’s 20-year tenure at AC Sparta Prague offers a direct operational blueprint for West Ham's future. After a prolonged period of high managerial turnover and financial deficits, the Czech club achieved back-to-back league titles only after Křetínský removed boardroom involvement from sporting decisions, delegating total recruitment and tactical autonomy to data-driven technical directors. A core component of Křetínský's sports model is heavy capital commitment to foundational infrastructure. At Sparta Prague, his ownership group is directly financing a multi-billion crown rebuilding of the historic Strahov area, alongside a brand-new 1 billion CZK youth and academy campus in the Krč district. He views elite infrastructure as a mandatory requirement for elite performance. This specific pattern makes substantial investment into West Ham's subpar Rush Green training ground highly probable. A primary objective of this transition is the legal optimization of league spending rules. While Squad Cost Rules strictly limit player wage expenditure relative to football revenue, capital spent on training grounds and academy facilities is 100% exempt from financial fair play limits. The long-term commercial anchor is the acquisition of the London Stadium. The venue currently operates at a public deficit, with annual losses reported at £68M. Because a relegation clause automatically reduces West Ham's annual rent by £2.5M, public sector liabilities will increase. Křetínský can negotiate an outright buyout, commercialize the venue for year-round events, and legally use that non-football revenue to expand the club's permitted transfer budget. 🏟️📈#WestHamUnited #LondonStadium #RushGreen #SpartaPrague #PSR #SportsBusiness #SadiqKhan
West Ham and Kretinsky 1/2
Analyzing Daniel Křetínský’s broader corporate portfolio provides a clear indicator of how the current West Ham boardroom transition will likely be managed. David Sullivan’s resignation from executive duties and the club's recent relegation to the EFL Championship have established a specific operational timeline for the minority shareholder. Here are the core financial and regulatory facts. 👇
The immediate factor driving this timeline is the June 30th financial deadline. Championship relegation has created a £90M cash flow deficit for the club. To comply with EFL Financial Sustainability rules and avoid administrative penalties, point deductions, or transfer embargoes, this capital must be injected this month. Křetínský possesses the liquidity required to fund this deficit directly. The capital injection will be executed through a standard corporate rights issue. If Křetínský funds the entire £90M and the Sullivan family elects not to participate proportionally, the family's remaining 38.8% shareholding will automatically dilute. Given David Sullivan’s public step-down to focus on personal legal matters, his estate is unlikely to match the funding. Funding the rights issue, combined with ongoing negotiations to buy out Sullivan’s remaining stock at an adjusted Championship valuation, will position Křetínský to cross the 50.1% majority ownership threshold. Once absolute voting control is established, standard UK corporate law permits a majority shareholder to restructure the board of directors and replace interim family management with institutional executives. #WHUFC #WestHam #Kretinsky #FootballFinance #EFL #Championship #COYI
@WestHam_Central He's a player that played in the championship league literally this season joining our biggest promotion rivals? Meltdown never needed but definitely a sign of intent from them
