what's your point ? Just saying I've asked you questions that you didn't bother answering in the past and I know plenty of others have to. Err, no he wasn´t, not really anyway.. He mainly had to fund his acquisitions by selling players.Net spend so far on the playing staff (transfer fees) over a one year period has been well under 10 million, which is quite low considering what clubs around us have spent.. fact Maths not your strong point, eh?

Frank doesn't sound like the sharpest knife in the box.

It's truly sad the way some will believe any old tripe in the media just to cast their own club in the worst possible light.

If your on about the OP the article in The Sun was written by a "Geordie-based" journo. I agree that "cockney-based media" is an inaccurate and laughable expression. That's why I put it in quotation marks.

He have to be thick as pig shit if he does.

Trust NE5 to believe every negative assumption in the "cockney-based" media.

Clearly you don't. Panic buying usually involves actually buying something.

I think it's best Ashley keeps silent. He'll prove himself, one way or another, by what he actually does – and I'm happy to cut him a season or two's slack to get on with it. While we're waiting to see what happens, the whingers will wet their knickers and the press will make up shite, but neither thing will make much difference to what actually happens behind the scenes or on the pitch.

At least the whingers have a sad mackem bastard to keep them company.

If he hasn't moved to another Spanish club that's probably because Mallorca don't want to sell him and the webster thing only works if he's moving abroad.

Me neither, but it's more likely they're trying to irritate the club in order to persuade them to give out stories (a la Shepherd) instead of keeping stumm and being subject to this kind of bollocks.

So you're saying NUFC is like a dead buffalo?

Liverpool supporter tbh.

It's always been that way. When was The Sun ever anything but tripe served up for morons?

I'd imagine we'll see a couple more transfers like these. Wouldn't surprise me if Wise and co. have been researching potential "Websters" while clubs are still figuring out what it all means.

Tino was sort of a hit and a miss both at the same time. Agree that Acuña was aalreet. And he looked like an extra from Tintin and the Prisoners of the Sun.

Tiiiiiiinoo-ooooh!

No it isn't.

Even accepting the dodgy comparison between the two players, how many chances has Joey Barton already been given, only to erupt into another fit of uncontrolled violence?

He might have "paid his debt", but what happens if we keep him and he does something like this again. I'd say the likelihood is high. Then, further damage to the club's reputation, more money wasted, hole in central midfield etc etc And we've become known as a club that signs cuntish players no one likes, which has got to have an adverse effect on our revenue (TV, merchandising. Time for that to change. I'm not up on some moralising soap box here, but I hope we find some way to lose the twat.

Am I crazy, or can you understand that post as well? That's every post in every thread about a reported interest in one of our players. There are ten posts just like that in the Martins thread. They bascally think the story is a load of tabloid nonsense, and that the media has an FC Basel-bashing agenda.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz...

Andy Gray's role during the match is that called a "summariser". Gives the other guy time to catch his breath.

The euros were always going to be a trap for the likes of us. If he plays great then his value rockets and the big CL clubs want him. If he'd played crap we'd all have been saying, thank god we didn't buy him.

In a small squad Smith will probably be retained because he can cover two positions -- even if he's crap at both of them.
