Now that's desperation.

Absolute rubbish. Right-oh. I personally think their recent run (including, as I've already mentioned, a great deal of bad luck going against you in that game) has rattled a few cages, including yours. You didn't even know anything about the penalty tonight but didn't wait to label them "cheating effing C's". They have been there and there abouts all season and were always going to be contenders so why would we be sudeenly rattled by their presence? And I didn't call them 'cheating effing C's' I called them 'fucking dirty bastards'. I'm sure you'd be pointing it out if say Liverpool had recently benfited from a flurry of penalty decisions. They are dirty bastards as well, one the dirtiest teams we've played this year.

Not based on form, from the last 12 games they're the second worst team in the league, one point better then Burnley.

We thought the away game was going to be tough, but in the end we turned them over pretty easily. Fingers crossed for the same again. pretty easily ? I watched that game and I distinctly remember Cardiff having a boatload of chances and Newcastle scrapping a 0-1 win by sheer luck. They had good posession but no real clear cut chances, they never really threatened from what I remember. We scored a good goal, nothing lucky about it.

every club could say they shouldn't be where they are...hartlepool had they backed clough a little, huddersfield had they bought st john and someone else who's name i can't remember like shankley wanted. all clubs are where they deserve to be. Every club?, no. A lot of them?, yes. Does the fact that a lot of clubs could say they shouldn't be where they are disclude us from being able to say it?, no. You agree that Ashley shouldn't have fucked up in so many ways yes? You agree that if he hadn't f***ed up we wouldn't have been relegated yes? So you then agree we shouldn't be where we are.. No sure why this is even a discussion. Again nobody said the club didn't deserve to be relegated, someone just said we shouldn't have been. In simple terms he's saying that its taken massive mistakes to put the club in the position its in now and he's not happy with that, it should amaze me that its still being disagreed with but for some reason I'm not suprised.

He's obviously talking specifically about a situation where mismanagement puts a club into a bad situation. Also has anyone said we don't deserve to be where we are as a club? I think someone just said we shouldn't be where we are, which I agree with.

No, it was a fair reflection of club's performance over 38 games. OK. I think you're being a tad pedantic. I was insinuating that years of mis-management had considerable influence over our performance over those 38 games. and that is the type of thing which lead EVERY club to the position it finds itself in. Not at all, some clubs over achieve just to get into the Premiership and then find they can't sustain it, not through mismanagement but simply because they don't have the resources.

Is he actually fast though? Not from what I've heard from Coventry fans. Though I admit I don't know much about him myself.

Seems like a very average player who couldn't hit a barn door before this season. Coventry fans seem to think he's just the same as Andy Carroll, I'm thrilled obviously

Nowt happening here then? Leon Best must have been £1 cheaper or something?

You actually think we signed Hall and Routledge as a financial favour to one of the worlds richest clubs? I hate to break it to you but Geremi didnt have a year left so its a worthless point So if you cancel your sky subscription and pay the £50 a month for the next 12 months into your savings account, its a worthless point? Get real, the club have had an outlay of £3m a year for Geremi, he has now gone so the wages released will amount to £3m a year if they stick it in the bank. In this case it has been used to fund the purchases of Routledge, Williamson and Simpson. How can removing Geremi from the wage bill pay for the transfer fees for these players when their wages alone will take up more then what Geremi was on. Wish people would think before they type sometimes.

Hmm maybe they have put in a bid. Ah but they'll have to not refuse to accept it though, and they're in no position to do that

And again. I'm not even at 6 yet, that's my average.

In a forum full of pedants you have to be very careful with your use of words I usually edit my posts about 6 times each EDIT: Look I just did it again.

We're not going to argue about the difference between refusing and not accepting a bid now are we? Ok so they won't refuse a bid outright, I don't remember anyone saying they would.

Of course they're in a position not to accept a bid. They'll have an idea of the kind of bid which is acceptable and only if that doesn't come in as time runs out would they move on to the lower offers.

He might have chosen Wigan had we given him the choice, we didn't. We didn't actually bid for him? I see, I thought we had going by the reports. If we didn't even match their bid then that is pretty poor. We made a bid but it was lower then Wigans offer and was never accepted (unless someone can correct me here?) Source? Source for what? The fact that nobody has ever reported that we had a bid accepted, look everywhere Like I said, we didn't have a bid accepted unless someone can correct me with some real info. Wigan put in a bid and it was accepted which was made public info, I'm sure we had a super secret bid accepted though Ok, fair enough you're right Knew you'd see the light

I assume you're joking as I didn't believe your really that stupid. It has as much logic as your statement A: There's no indication that we've had a bid accepted so I assume we didn't have a bid accepted until I find out otherwise B: There's no indication that we've had a bid accepted so I assume we did have a bid accepted until I find out otherwise. If you think B is as logical as A then only Spock can help you now. I actually don't think we had a bid accepted, but that doesn't mean you can say we made an offer that was lower than Wigans and it wasn't accepted - there's absolutely no proof to back such a statement up. Oh, and I'd understand your opinions alot more if they weren't accompanied by little digs We know we made an offer because Hughton said so. We know Wigan made an offer obviously. Wigans offer was announced as being accepted, our offer wasn't announced as being accepted. Its hardly a leap to assume our offer was never accepted which means it was lower then Wigans.

Not that interested, couldn't even get a game for Portsmouth FFS!!

He might have chosen Wigan had we given him the choice, we didn't. he knew we were interested therefore he had the choice. Do you understand the difference between being absolutely desperate to sign for someone else to the point where you'll screw you're already financially fucked hometown club out of even more money and merely prefering to sign for someone else? Us being interested doesn't give him a straight choice, a bid being accepted would have.

They'll be hoping for someone to put in an even bigger offer I suppose, only sensible really. We won't do it though.
