Excuse my ignorance but why do arsenal have financial constraints? Was their stadium loan an appalling deal or something or do they spunk too much of their budget on wages which since the crazy transfer inflation of a couple of years ago has screwed them elsewhere?

I'm guessing that FFP might come into play if they aren't generating as much money either.

There isn't much money left after they've drained it out of the club. Crooked accountants ain't cheap, neither!

Ozils wages alone take 100% of the profits from food and beer sales.
Ok I made that up but you get the drift lol.

Anyone hear Robbie on Talksport defending himself against Simon Jordan’s AFTV comments? Robbie absolutely destroyed him and the little Scottish sycophant. Natalie Sawyer let them at it and much to her credit as he was ‘gunning’ for the whole Talksport platform at the end. Club rivalries aside I was cheering him on today. As usual with Jim White’s show they tried to do the sensationalist part and shout down any dissenting voices and Robbie was not having it. Ironically it made great radio.
I heard some of it. I thought that Simon J was being mean spirited towards Robbie and yeah, Robbie hardly got a word in. Even at the end when Robbie was trying to be magnanimous and invited him along to watch an Arsenal game, Simon was being childish.

Listening to it now and I agree with your summary.

Whilst I do agree that Robbie is benefiting from negativity around his club, I also think that makes Talksport massive hypocrites cause that's essentially what they are about - in fact it's worse!

One thing is certain though - Jim White is a grade A cock!
He is funny though. Everyone who comes along is "great" or "a pal" of Jim's or is "a real friend of the show".

He does come across as a bit needy. Like he needs the validation of everyone being his friend.
Nothing wrong with that if that’s how he lives. Just wish he didn’t spend 3 hours a day on the radio and another few hours a day on the telly doing it. Seriously needs to be cut loose.
