deco to join chelsea according to bbc sport

Imposters:

Minor point of order

A random conversation has led to us being alerted to a nonsensical message board post from a few weeks ago that purports to be from Biffa of NUFC.com.

As we've pointed out here before, we never post on any message board and refuse to run our own for precisely this sort of reason. Don't believe the tripe.

was this on here?

scolari new chelsea gaffer.

they've done well there imo

Spurs very interested in signing Anton. 

 

Jeez, I know Dawson is no great shakes but mini Ferdinand is signifantly worse imho.  He's quicker than Dawson but that's not surprising, everyone's quicker than Dawson!

i hop its him and dawson when we play you!

dawson always has a holocaust against us, and anton is just plain bollocks

He was woeful when he came on.

 

Was eating me tea, what did he do wrong?

same here, what did he do that made him look woefull in ten mins?

for fucks sake.

 

why dont we sign ronaldinho/henry instead of kids?

 

what are our scouts doing? are they f***ing blind man?

 

f***ing tossers.

 

is that a windup?

what do you think!

for fucks sake.

why dont we sign ronaldinho/henry instead of kids?

what are our scouts doing? are they fucking blind man?

fucking tossers.

Ronaldinho rejects £200k a week contract from Citeh, he wants at least £250k.

 

aye, just read that, what a knob!

and they are flying out to brazil to iron it out (which i presume means increase their offer).

mental

if kk wants him, that'll do for me

this is the way i see it:

we are trying to spend less on players overall, right? imo, the best way to do this is to fork out in a pretty big way now, to get us up there into a position where players actually want to join us, (as they evidently do spurs)? its going to take a signal of intent on our part (which i believe modric would have been btw), and for players to join us, or want to join us, we are going to have to recruit a couple of big fish.

and regardless of current form, they dont come much bigger than ronaldinho, and whoever gets him, the football world will sit up and take notice of imo, and thats exactly what we need.

Thanks for including Kluivert, Babel and Kuyt to help us bum you in the face with our argument.

 

Kluivert has a career before he came to Newcastle you know..? Babel has had as good a first season as could be expected from a youngster moving to a new league and adjusting his game and Kuyt is a regular in one of the top 4 and one off the most loved players at his clubs wherever he goes. I predict you will bring up his goalscoring record in the Premiership, but he has so many more strings to his bow.

 

Kuyt is rubbish. Nothing but a workhorse.

 

Van Persie and van Nistelrooy are the only strikers I can think of who've come over from the Dutch league and done the business.

there was this fella called bergkamp......

shearer being heavily linked wih the blackburn job

journo on the blackburn forum claims madrid have made an obscene offer for ronaldo.

they are getting encouragment from somewhere, as they are not giving up

thoroughly enjoyed that.

he's a great man.

Steve Claridge was on Setanta last night and said he spoke to Redknapp yesterday and was told the only clubs in for him were Spurs, Blackburn and Portsmouth.

 

I'd heard that, at the time that Keegan left Man City, a lot of senior players were rather pissed off with him and weren't sorry to see him go. A lot of people assume that players like Dunne would be eager to be reunited with Keegan, but I'm wouldn't be confident of that.

 

pissed off why?

 

The training was boring and old-fashioned. Keegan had lost his spark and was a rather non-inspirational presence.

 

Allegedly.

i'm pretty sure dunne said something along these lines when he left

Everything's happening this evening. Like four stories on that breaking news thing atm.

 

Maybe we'll slip out a signing.

more chance of me slipping out a baby

ancelotti agrees to join chelsea according to ssn

 

Yet to reach agreement with Milan though.

bit of a formality once he's decided to go though isnt it

ancelotti agrees to join chelsea according to ssn

spuds aparently the third club in for ramsey

top club villa imo, they do things right and are starting to look a very impressive outfit as a club as a whole, this charity thing, the mellberg gesture, the free buses on for fans by lermer, all very good stuff.

well done.

i'm here! i go back for most games
