R.E what scott wilson said. That was my reading of the situation, we must have agreed something a while ago because we have been talking to him for the best part of a month. Hopefully things will have gone one way or the other come the weekend.

What so we are tracking his movements? If we agree a deal with Marseille, I reckon they will announce it.

Just got in. Can someone sum up what's happened today? Save me reading 10 pages.

Is Taylor actually fit?

There was all this talk of "he will not be ready for the first team for a year" banta that was going around. I imagine this has something to do with it.

Funny old business this. He's 23 isn't he? And we are not giving him a game. So either we are treating him like a 17 year old for development reasons or we just don't rate him, odd.

Even Pardew has said we need signings and said the board has been supportive over transfers. I'd be shocked if they don't intend to sign more players. It's whether they can pull it off or not.

Him going to Liverpool would make sense. However, if he's not going to QPR, we will have a great shout.

I don't want Jonas back in the side but I think his absence has seen the back four be exposed. It's the lesser of two evils though, he offers nothing creatively.

It's not that I have any confidence in our lot to complete this deal or any doubt that a player would be stupid enough to join such a relegation threatened team. It's just such an unlikely scenario IMO.

So because Pardew isnt at today's OM game, weve made communication whatsoever?

Robweb: I know we are in a relegation fight but they are odds on to go down Hatem: I agree but Pards doesn't need to be there himself.

Fuck sake man. Firstly it makes no odds that Pardew isn't there, nor does it make him a worse manager. Secondly, Remy would have to be a moron to join QPR, not because we are vastly better but because they are on the verge of relegation. If he wants to join them because they are offering him silly wages or because they are based in London, then they are welcome to each other.

Adam Campbell to get get a game IMO.

Auclair was spot about Debuchy and often has a good idea of what's going on. Should be interesting to see what happens.

I expected a "we don't need to sell Remy" statement from Marseille. Which means, up your bid. This is just the start.

There's a picture for this somewhere? "I sign players, who sign players".

Is Loic another from Claire-fontaine? If so Graham Carr is clever, he seems to scout alot of players that come from the best academies.

I think Colo's form has improved in the last couple of games. It's the protection from Tiote and cover from Williamson we should be worrying about.

Noticed another round of Arry's "trific, trific" crack today. Does any other manager let the media shout names at him in a press conference and answer them in such a way. It's actually a really funny watch. Cringeworthy all the same.

I think they are talking shit, or at least don't know as much as they are making out. However, the times if far more likely for a good story than most other papers. I think there is definate interest from us but i expect at least a couple of weeks of the usual shite before we get a conclusion either way. I'm 50/50, at the moment. We will have other targets.

Anything said about an outgoing transfer will be seen as bitter. However, you are correct on this. I've never rated him as a technical footballer, which a champions league team needs. He's a goalscorer but I feel his selfishness will be his downfall.

I'm sure he feels wanted despite the manager not knowing a thing about the transfer.

Chelsea a massive club, founded by Abramovich in 2001.

He knew. Get in. Wish I'd had the brains to remember this post.
