Because its going to cripple the league, what happens all these wankers get bored. Depends what you mean by get bored. I don't forsee him ever pulling funding out of Manchester City as far as running costs go. Perhaps transfer market funds will have to be self-funded, but ultimately, the amount of money he has to put in for wages etc is so negligble that it's not even a blip on his financial radar.

Why do you all care about the money so much! Nothing should suprise people with regards to City. I'm suprised they haven't bid £200m if they really really wanted him. Mr Sheik dude could comfortably pay Terry £1m a week if he so desired.

Yes they do, and this discount was available from the day the kit was shown to the public. Discounted for a limited time only etc. It's just more media shite.

No, rather than crossing out those three words (you're right - we DO have a lot of players tho') you should have added "overpaid, underperforming, egotistic, poseurs" too My point was that all the words above are pretty much representative of the modern day footballer. They are inferred when the term footballer is used. Same goes for your extra words too!

You should see if you can throw Senderos into the deal too..

AC Milan are poised to make a £10m bid for Arsenal striker Nicklas Bendtner. (Daily Express) I wonder if they would accept such an offer..

Wasn't really given much time tbh. In a period where Madrid weren't exactly doing well.

I'd take it

haha I take it thats a no! (that was an actual question, not just a piss-take btw!)

Did Bale win a game in the end?

When have the highs been very high? The lows are lower than any other football club on the planet, the highs are moderate at best. depending on your age, we've had a few title challenges, a few cup finals/charity shield, a few runs in the champions league, other european football often, broke a world record which led to shearer scoring 206 goals to break another record. forgive my positivity but i love all that s***. I remember all that yes, and I loved them at the time, but no way were the highs then as high as the lows are low at the minute, the only thing that is as high as a relegation is low, is winning a trophy, which I have never seen, the lows have very much outweighed the highs in my lifetime, and I've been supporting Newcastle almost 20 years... I'm with your way of thinking. I'm a lot more negative than many people though, I'll readily admit that.

really? looking purely at the highs in my lifetime i get this... keegan era - probably unbeatable in every way. breathtaking if you lived through it at a decent age. dalglish era - 2nd place finish, champions league run, beating barca 3-2, fa cup final. gullit era - fa cup final. robson era - second only to keegan in terms of success and great memories. then it gets a bit shit bar the odd moment every now and again. I'm shocked that you've listed Gullit and Dalglish as highs. The FA cups were just prime examples of almost-highs followed by earth shattering lows. I am no longer interest in 'the ride', 15 years of it must have shortened by lifespan.

Lows outweight Highs by miles.

I'll go with Xisco.

Yeah I can't say I agree with that. It'd be lovely if they did! But I wouldn't by any means expect it.

Agreed. I don't expect Habib Beye to love the club and stay forever, just to treat it with respect and do things the proper way. I'm just astounded that he simply says a few nice comments in the media and everyone creams over him. Don't say how much you love the club if you're planning to fuck off. Simply say you'dve loved to stay, but due to the turmoil and the championship status and the fact im proper getting old, im handing in a transfer request. Done. We're just being strung along by him, as well as the men "in-charge". Habib Beye is basically as bad as Mike Ashley.

No. Chelsea's title imo.

Don't fall into the Spurs trap! This happens every year! - Spurs are looking good for this season - Fill fantasy team with bargainous Spurs players - Spurs get raped for the first 8 games of the season - Get rid of Spurs players from fantasy team - Due to fear of relegation, Spurs fire manager - Spurs slowly gain form, finishing strongly, next season should be better - Spurs are looking good for this season - Fill fantasy team with bargainous Spurs players - Spurs get raped for the first 8 games of the season - Get rid of Spurs players from fantasy team - Due to fear of relegation, Spurs fire manager - Spurs slowly gain form, finishing strongly, next season should be better - Spurs are looking good for this season - Fill fantasy team with bargainous Spurs players - Spurs get raped for the first 8 games of the season - Get rid of Spurs players from fantasy team - Due to fear of relegation, Spurs fire manager - Spurs slowly gain form, finishing strongly, next season should be better - Spurs are looking good for this season - Fill fantasy team with bargainous Spurs players - Spurs get raped for the first 8 games of the season - Get rid of Spurs players from fantasy team - Due to fear of relegation, Spurs fire manager - Spurs slowly gain form, finishing strongly, next season should be better - Spurs are looking good for this season - Fill fantasy team with bargainous Spurs players - Spurs get raped for the first 8 games of the season - Get rid of Spurs players from fantasy team - Due to fear of relegation, Spurs fire manager - Spurs slowly gain form, finishing strongly, next season should be better - Spurs are looking good for this season - Fill fantasy team with bargainous Spurs players - Spurs get raped for the first 8 games of the season - Get rid of Spurs players from fantasy team - Due to fear of relegation, Spurs fire manager - Spurs slowly gain form, finishing strongly, next season should be better - Spurs are looking good for this season - Fill fantasy team with bargainous Spurs players - Spurs get raped for the first 8 games of the season - Get rid of Spurs players from fantasy team - Due to fear of relegation, Spurs fire manager - Spurs slowly gain form, finishing strongly, next season should be better - Spurs are looking good for this season - Fill fantasy team with bargainous Spurs players - Spurs get raped for the first 8 games of the season - Get rid of Spurs players from fantasy team - Due to fear of relegation, Spurs fire manager - Spurs slowly gain form, finishing strongly, next season should be better - Spurs are looking good for this season - Fill fantasy team with bargainous Spurs players - Spurs get raped for the first 8 games of the season - Get rid of Spurs players from fantasy team - Due to fear of relegation, Spurs fire manager - Spurs slowly gain form, finishing strongly, next season should be better - Spurs are looking good for this season - Fill fantasy team with bargainous Spurs players - Spurs get raped for the first 8 games of the season - Get rid of Spurs players from fantasy team - Due to fear of relegation, Spurs fire manager - Spurs slowly gain form, finishing strongly, next season should be better - Spurs are looking good for this season - Fill fantasy team with bargainous Spurs players - Spurs get raped for the first 8 games of the season - Get rid of Spurs players from fantasy team - Due to fear of relegation, Spurs fire manager - Spurs slowly gain form, finishing strongly, next season should be better etc

Nice incisive comment.....This guy is (imo of course) our most committed and grounded player. He loves the club, fans, area etc, by rights he should be our club captain. All of this is no indictment on him, but what is sadly (at the minute) a joke of an organisation. He loves the club, fans, area etc yet he'll gladly be fucking off within the next few weeks? How exactly has he proved his love? He's been here 2 years on handsome wages, then hard times come rolling in and he's off? It's not like he's even out of contract. He has a contract, he doesn't need a new one, just get on with playing football if you love the club so very much. A few kind comments to the media and you're putty in his hands. It's pathetic.

Fuck Habib up the ass. He's done a very good job of coming out smelling of roses, but he's no better than any of the other scum on the books.
