they've been shite for a while now. They have reached new lows now.

We sign France and they are now total shite, coincidence?

I had some money in my account so took them inplay at 1-1 to win along with England -3, Portugal -1, Turkey -1(2-0 up at time). Heard a goal in their match when I was making some food and thought, ah nice one that's the Dutch taken the lead. Came back and bloody estonia were taking the piss out of them.

Nice one Neil.

Jordan Rhodes, almost. Impressed by Anya.

Oranje have cost me significant cash tonight. Thanks for that lads.

Who's keeping goal for them now that Stekelenberg is injured? Vom.

Shit happens when Krul aint in goal.

What are Holland doing?

Amazing goal on the break form Belgium right on cue! Thought you'd been playing well enough too, think they probably deserve the lead on the balance though. What do you make of Mulgrew? Yeah they are a quality team, doing really well though. I like him, great left foot and versatile. Strong player too but a bit slow sometimes, that's what holds him back a bit. Think Grant Hanley is going to be good and James Forrest.

We'll probably lose but doing really well against Belgium, love it.

Fucking hell.

Don't worry, I've been assured the club doesn't need anybody running it. I've heard we don't really need a manager either because it's almost entirely down to the players.

I know you said £200m at the very least, but I honestly think it would need to be someone with many times more than that. Buying the club is one thing, you then have to be able to fund it to a higher level than it is now. Someone who can just about buy the club isn't what we need, it needs to be small change to them. An extreme example I know but I really shudder to think where we'd be if Ashley had sold out to Barry Moat - an enthusiastic owner no doubt but that "pieced together" finance package of his was so small time. I know that, £200m wouldn't even scratch the surface. Was just saying it's all well and good having the Ashley out campaigns, but without a buyer it's futile. It is. And there's no guarantee of someone better coming in tbh, in recent memory there have been worse owners of Premiership football clubs than Ashley. Debatable. Hicks/Gillett, the Venky chicken lot, whoever it is that owns Wolves. If you want to extend it a little further north than the Premiership there's always Rangers. Hearts too, although at least they won some trophies and should be fan owned before too long if they manage to get out of the shit they are in.

Hahahaa just read that article, what can you say?

This place would go absolutely mental. Would be legendary and infamous day for all of us. Add to that the day Ashley walks and eventually Kinnear & AP get sacked as well. Epic. Not sure I want an "infamous" day. We've had enough of them. Would much rather we had a 'famous' day, when a decent owner takes control and starts about rebuilding the club back to where we could and should have been with proper investment and decent management.

This seems to be the problem, everyone is at the moment. Shite state of affairs!

Great idea, sounds tough to do but good luck. Only money I've given to Ashley in the past few years has been one ticket. Not that I could go to many games anyway but even though I'll be a lot closer to Newcastle from next month I certainly won't put a penny more in until he's gone.

How does the club owe Ashley anything? He bought the club, he bought the debt. What am I missing?

Both Merseyside clubs have done really well. Lukaku is absolute class and will bang them in for Everton. McCarthy is already really good and is just going to get better and better. If I was Moyes I'd be asking serious questions about whoever is dealing with the transfers there. Considering they could have had Fellaini so much cheaper earlier on is shocking enough, then missing out on another midfielder with the Herrera deal sounding like an epic fuckup and then the Coentrao thing too. Ozil is an incredible signing for Arsenal, still think they are vulnerable at the back though. The likes of Norwich, Southampton and Villa got most of their business done early and have done really well.

Same shit, different day.

The guy is just a lowly parasite.

Pretty quiet tonight on that front!

Shit banter on this deadline day, where's that baldy guy from Stoke?
