Debatable, time will tell.

He seems to have learned nothing from the transfer window,he shuts up for a few days but he's back peddling shite.

:haha:

Fair point, you're right to a degree. But even things that they're doing right, like restricting the amount they'll pay transfer fees, they can't actually come out and say because it will influence future deals. And things like the fact that Ashley would sell up to any decent buyer, they can't say because it will only cause more instability. Right or wrong, there are a lot of things that it would be very unwise to comment publicly about. How can "restricting the amount they'll pay transfer fees" be doing the right thing if it means we're not getting the players we need and want?

That's not what I've heard.

Midnight and he's still at the hospital. dannysimpson12Danny Simpson She should be home soon bro, I'm with her now RT @A8Burns: @dannysimpson12 saw ya pic of skye on bbm b4. (cont) http://tl.gd/ctj9go 5 minutes agoFavoriteRetweetReply

I’d be over the moon to see the back of Pardew, in isolation. Llambias though would almost certainly screw up appointing his replacement so for now I don’t see any point in Pardew going. He’s either a liar or a deluded fool but that’s more his problem than ours, just ignore anything he has to say.

WTF?

Lock the thread and save everybodies wasted time.

That one.

Ashley and Llambias both give a damn and the singing section was only disbanded this year, that was done to try and shut up people who were slagging Ashley off. They will think that they have done enough in the transfer window and the shitty statement backs that up. They are clueless, the criticism still hurts them even though they don't want people to pick up on that.

Ashley hates getting stick off the fans, he cares what people think of him but tries to make it look as if he doesn't give a shit in the hope that people will just give up. He put the club up for sale after the fans started singing about him and he's closed the singing section, of course he gives a damn.

He does and that's why the singing section has gone.

If that is the case then I hope that factor in the possibility of shirt sales plummeting, I wouldn't be seen dead with a shirt with Sports Direct on the front and I doubt I'm alone in thinking that way.

It also emphasises that Pardew should have no say in player transfers if his list of wanted players is true.

Ryan Taylor has never been as good as Simpson has at right back for us.

We don't know that, we do know that if we did try for him then we didn't do enough to get him.

You're basically saying what most other people are saying and that is that we need a new forward, the only difference is that you don't think our targets were very good.

I thought Obertan was French.

Damned if they do, damned if they don't to be honest. Everyone was crying out for a statement, they make one, shouldn't have made a statement. or Everyone was crying for a statement, they don't make one, they get reamed for not making one. Either way they lose. I can't remember seeing anybody crying for a statement although I might have missed them.

OliverKayTimesOliver Kay Capello comes back out for post-match interview and ... is applauded by England fans, who then adjust and sing "One Bobby Robson"

The statement was a non event.

I don't think the kit will happen, they will know that very few people would buy anything with Sports Direct on it.
