The most plausible scenario of all
Except this bid was first reported almost 2 weeks ago.
Around the time Jose went. Yet another defusing tactic now Bartons gone.
Any other club's owners you think this is just us testing the water and will eventually pay up as the deadline approaches. Won't with us.
Got no problem with going in fairly low to see how they react then going back in with a more realistic bid. We're just going in deliberately low and leaving it at that. Someone else said you can only afford to play hardball when you're in a position of strength. Our lack of flexibility and compromise is canny vexing.
Or possibly 7m or whatever is what we've got arranged with PSV for Pieters, so we tried our luck at Cissokho for around the same, weren't successful, so will settle on Pieters?
To be honest it's getting to the stage where I don't mind which on we go for. We need a LB in asap and if the cash is there then let's get one of them in. My frustration is how laborious the whole process is over a relatively small sum of money.
That's what happens when you employ a casino twat as chairman.
It'll all be Derek trying to please his master by saving a million hear and there.
Apart from the fact that he's our new left back, I agree.
I confidently predict that Ryan Taylor will be ousted from his left back position by James Perch.
up yours
Funny thing is that wasn't aimed at your post. It was aimed at this thread being bumped again.
Shame on you Wally mc jump to conclusion!

Remember the wind up on our take over, we need some ITK bollocks posting on RTG to give the mongs a brief glimmer of hope, before reality hits.
Well i'll be surprised if we actually sign anyone else now.
Ok we've had a good couple of results, but as everybody knows, we look totally toothless up top.
With a fully-fit Ba, Ben Arfa and Marveux that could change, but i'm not holding my breath.
