He's doing brilliantly at what he's hired for: preventing us from spending money and selling players.

THIS was the plan? Start bidding for someone who 1. Doesn't seem as if he's willing to come and 2. Plays for a club with whom we hadn't even spoken to beforehand? Amateur hour continues.

Holtby to Fulham.

According to?

Krul Debuchy Yanga-M'Biwa Zouma Haïdara Anita Tioté Ben Arfa Grenier Ince Rémy

Glenn Hoddle Alex McLeish Alan Curbishley Gerry Francis Gary Megson Graeme Souness He just needs to dip into the pool of failed dinosaurs and take his pick.

Depends on how many people are influenced by Montpellier.

We'd be stupid not to have one, you know.

If this is true, we planned to replace Cabaye with a player we didn't even bother to check if he was interested?

This isn't Football Manager, those things happen without grand official announcements.

Interesting. Maybe he's considering whether it's worth taking all the blame for the shitness?

Who said that? Pardew?

Can't really be ashamed of Shola as a person he's just an abomination of a premier league footballer. I meant Shola the player and Taylor the idiot.

It's a shame with Taylor and Shola. Two of the very few players to make the grade from our academy, both players/persons you more than often are ashamed of more than anything.

I'm thinking one more cheap bid for Grenier, then someone like Holtby is our plan.

Holtby would be good, he's got loads of potential.

HTT, beautiful.

Seems like it. We've developed a vocabulary to suit our cheapness. We put in "substantial bids", other clubs have "coordinated finances" but we continue to offer "affordable football".

His passing is poor, often clumsy and indecisive when he gets into position. His movement and power are great features though. But definately not a number 10.

One year ago, he was fucking brilliant for a few games. Shame.

Wait, what!?

Suprisingly high if true.

Again, the "substantial but undisclosed" is our way of saying this at this stage already. Probably well below £10m. Can't wait for "we refuse to be pushovers, Portsmouth and Leeds, transfer plans for summer kicking into full gear, Ashley was brave to only sell Cabaye". This level of chat actually hurts me. Sorry to hear that. I just refuse to even begin thinking otherwise. We've been here too many times with these mugs.
