Not for the club Lambias makes an enquiry about player, leaks interest to press... then does not more about it, fans hopes built up.. smoke screen complete. Smoke screens. They secretly know what they are doing.

Fulham were poor today, but Dempsey would be a good target for us if we were interested in replacing Barton or signing anyone at all who wasnt free/french.

YES. Officially a good start to the season.

Tim Krul.

THATS A BALL IN THE BOX

GET IN

I don't think that was bad at all so far. Kept possession, some bright moments from Obertan. Played about as well as you can expect with Best & Lovenkrands as your front two.

PUT THE BALL IN TEH BOX, PUT IT IN THE BOX Muting this shit.

+ untold agent fees, of course, wages, cost of the flight over and hotel. And meals.

The last straw was many, many straws ago, so it's difficult to care about this one.

If they were taking this seriously, we wouldn't be in this position. We would have decided on a target, sought a fair evaluation and signed a striker we wanted at some point in the past three months. This trolling around Ligue 1 like pushy used car salesmen doesn't suggest that this is a priority for them.

I thought every player had his price and you had to consider the financial health of the club, providing of course that every last penny of the Maiga money is reinvested in the club...

Match between Morelia & Santos in the Mexican league suspended after gunfire outside the stadium. Was broadcast on TV. Terrifying stuff. http://futbol.univision.com/mexico/videos/video/2011-08-20/tiroteo-en-pleno-santos-morelia?ftloc=channel100%3AcmsStage&ftpos=channel100%3AcmsStage%3A1

Well put.

If you are sick of the negativity surrounding the transfer window, then just stop paying attention and ignore it. Where's the sense in trying to put a positive spin on things that are plainly bad and discouraging?

"Reportedly" is a great adverb. As a journalist or blogger, you can make something up on the spot, pass it off as "reported", implying that it is sourced, and then just carry on speculating..

Some clubs may not be interested in selling their best players. Strangely, some owners might have the mentality that the point of running a football club is to build a good football team.

Love it when Shola falls over and then decides to have a nice sit down rather than get up and work. How many more years of that to look forward to?

More positives than negatives. Match ratings: Barton 10, everyone else a 7. Except Shola 4.

Hope we make a better start than the first ten minutes of the 4-4.

We will be saying the same this time next year! We have a detailed backup plan. And that plan is to look for a new left-back

First Mexican that scores needs to do a proper Klinsmann dive celebration.

Wish it was from a better source. Ive wanted us to sign Derdiyok for a few years.

Bill Shankly lived next door to my grandparents when he was Huddersfield manager and took my nan to hospital when she went into labour with my Dad.

We are living in a Nani-state.
