Suarez to Madrid in the end

posted on 25/7/13

WNM :

Doesn't matter where he goes now to us.
If Suarez is sold and Spurs don't sort it by Aug 3, the Poool will get Soldado.

BTW, really did think Higuain would end up at your lot this summer.

At 20K entry wages for a grad, that means your firm is hardly scraping the barrel. You don't have a Wenger-esque pay structure for your current staff. do you ??

Strange one that.
The wages and CL football was not an issue.

Some speculation on Spurs 606 that Madrid may have messed you about as a sign of yielding to Spurs (as their pathetic leave no stone unturned pursuit of Bale continues) .

Hopefully you didn't have a debtor problem (the number of firms that used to go under on cashflow cos their bigger customers don't pay up pronto) .

But didn't Madrid hike the transfer price up by nearly 10m Euros as negotiations got close to the end ??

Complicated, but it was all because we turned the investment down on the premise that the other contract would get signed off the next week, really silly thing to do in retrospect.

Or maybe not, as our valuation just doubled

Ah, the VC dilemma. Get some money now but dilute your stake overall.
But you got there in the end.

If you give me your company URL, I'll put it in my user title.

Understood.

Sales : you're facing an army of BeLevyers.
No wonder you get cashflow problems.

Stop turning up to customers in full replica kit then.

I have in the past had G00n head honchos at client sites wanting me to walk around in a G00n shirt depending on end of season positions, NLD results etc.

Yeah, but Higuain is not so key to Madrid as Suarez is to the Poool. IMHO they were just doing their usual Madrid ery.
