Just read through a thread on around 9 pages about Faye leaving them for us...They seem to be gutted

Man City - Derby 1-1 FT Petrov sent off after 70 minutes Would like it end that way anyway..

Petrov really has a hot temper...Wouldn't surprise me if he got sent off in the second half, nic goal by Johnson. Im hoping for a Derby win..

RB firstly. A quality one. After that im happy But i would not complain if we signed a great player on that hehe

A little bit interesting seing city against derby..I hope for a draw ...Bojinov will probably start with Rolando? or?

I hope that wasn't a joke in one way...In the way of a stupid joke

I remember one time when i saw a turkish team play, well it was before the game had started and there was one lad on the pitch waving with his arms and the fans responded to it just as he gave them instructions, first the other side screamed out something and then the lad on the pitch turned to the other sid of the stadium and they responded to it. I think it was Besiktas Ultras that had this stuff just before kick off....

The atmosphere at St-Etienne is immense. They have two massive singing sections, one behind each goal and they both try and out-do each other with their songs, banners, flares, etc. Will try and post a few photos up later on when I get time. Yeah i have seen some of that. Immense as you said. Would be awesome if we could have something new at our stadium. One side singing and the other responding in a even more powerfull way. Some great stuff you can feel thgo through your spine (spelling?)

"Straight"

I think its st. etienne in France that have quite nice ways of making noise..would love to see something different in English football than the usual... Keep up the good work...

But Oliver gets the impression that Sam's happy with his summer dealings ..at least he didn't use the "i am told" as usual... now get a RB in also

good news

Theres already a thread

He was half-decent for the first two or three months. Ultimately though, he was s***, we never needed him in the first place but since we had him - it meant we didn't get another centre-midfield 'replacement' that summer, and was s***. Our centre-mid options that 05/06 season were Parker/Emre, Faye/Clark. Compare those options in CM to the players we have now today. It's sick how much better we are in that area now compared to then, especially when looking that depth

Van Der Vaart is targeted by Valencia in a £11m deal from what i have heard..

I KNOW we need cover, etc, but i like the idea of Rozenhal and Taylor settling in the back 4 together. And i don't like the idea of Cacapa and Ramage being our only other alternatives. Not an unfair comment, but that's COVER. First team wise, we have no right back, bever mind cover. Hopefully Sam will work that out. A quality RB in and this has to be one of the best transfer periods in a loooong time.. In an inflated market we have still got many players in strengthening the team and without splashing way too much..

I bet that Jol has talked to Dick and Cock about this miserable start

Two teams this season that i would love to have a really bad season is Spurs and West Ham...

yes around £7m would be great if the deal goes through...I would never thought that we could get 6m for him, and if we get 7 that eould be great. He's one player of the old Newcastle United and im glad to get rid of him, especially for £7m. Does that take our net spending to around £9/10m for this summer? (just counted quickly from my head) Simply great piece of bussiness. Getting all these new players for the price of a Boumsong and a little more ,9

I have seen him a few times but i have not exactly studied him that closely. Can anyone give me some info about him as a player? whats he's good at and what is he less good at? If i remember correct he's strong and big and quite pacey for his size? Is he consistent and not just a slightly better version of Titus Bambi

He would surely give us some exciting play when going forward. Experienced also. Good for a couple of seasons imo. To make us a better team. We are not a club at this moment who can attract the likes of Dani Alves to name one..

I also thought that he was younger than 31. Still a good player though, and tbh what other quality RB's is there available out there for a fair price and decent quality and most of all one willing to come to us??

I suggested Belletti as a possible RB for us a while ago, Very good going forward, not that good defensively though. But ten times the player than Carr tbh..

I suggested Belletti a week or two ago as a possible new RB for us. Very good going forward, pacey also...Would not say no thanks to have him here

Where is King Dawson? I really hope that he hasn't comitted suicide or something stupid like that because of this..
