Might be loan with £3m agreed if they stay up?

I remember it from the last window when we signed Remy.

Nobody's laughing at Norwich paying £3m for a squad player are they? Theres just some surprise that we can get even £3m for a player that some believe isnt good enough to play in the league anymore and far from a useful squad player for us.

No matter how stingy Ashley is the fact is the less money the club brings in the more stingy he'll be. Its pretty silly IMO not to want us to get as much as possible for any player we sell.

I do want to sign him but I wouldn't be too gutted if we don't (well depends on the situation really). Don't think that would rule out us signing anyone else either.

How am I talking shit? What do you think Ben Arfa's faults are then? Trying to claim he's far too greedy because he chose one pass instead of another is shit IMO. I mentioned what I thought his faults were. He should be working on his decision making and his movement off the ball. Even without those improvements however he should still be starting.

How do you know how fucking good I think he is? I can see his faults and am happy to discuss them with anyone who has something more worthwhile to say than vague comments like "he's not as good as people think".

You said he's far to greedy and went on to say you'd be suprised if anyone wants him. Why on earth would I assume you want him in the team with that kind of comment?

He's not consistently unplayable and needs to work on his decision making, right everyone knows that, doesn't make him greedy because he took the wrong (in your opinion) option for a pass/cross. Also the fact that he isn't consistently unplayable shouldn't keep him oh the bench.. As far as consistency goes and decision making that is only hindered further by being played so inconsistently by his manager.

Choosing the wrong option is greedy?, god some people talk utter balls.

But he is an old cunt.

You'll probably be less disappointed watching the match.

He signed a new contract before we got him. I think he had an agreement with his club that if he signed a new contract they'd let him go for a reasonable fee.

Carr "Alan if you won't play Ben Arfa I'll just keep buying players like him until the squad is just 27 Ben Arfa's!"

Should have scored there though.

Great skill there.

Second one is a dive, first one is a push.

We'll probably nick it 1-0.

What team? There's no such team. No need for that. We don't buy. Our buying strategy is comparable to those "hippie" people that searches through the garbage from supermarkets looking for expired food that's still possible to eat... Last January says hello.

The most unlikely bit out of all of that is Shola leaving.

Its nothing to do with their moral fibre (that's questionable regardless of attendance). Seriously, as you say the Mackems talk shit about attendance all the time. So what's the problem with having at go at them for only taking 25k to a home leg of a cup semi final?, its an absolutely atrocious attendance.

But by that logic Swansea are the only club aiming to sign anyone since they're the only club in for Ince.

If the conversation went: Slim: "Your attendance was shit last night" Mackem: “Aye but I never seen the Newcastle fans” Then I don't know what the fuck he's trying to say, as a reply it makes no sense in any way.

Don't know, you could read it that way, but I may have misread it

I misread your post (as if their was a comma after "its not like"). That's why I edited my post to just generally be confused at the whole situation rather than just your post.
