  1. So was there some other game on that night that he should have been watching?

     

    Seems a bit of a daft complaint – that one of our directors shouldn't put in an appearance at one of the major events on the football calendar. And who knows who he met/talked to on the trip. Or, indeed, what he's doing the rest of the time?

     

    Scraping the barrel for something to whine about here, tbh.

     

    fux sake, i refer youback  to "(when i refer to wise i refer to all of the scouting staff by the way)"

     

    what i'm saying is ostensibly it seems to me they've done sweet fuck all since being employed on very generous wages...go back to the post that wasn't out of context - it was about them being on holiday, fuck them being on any type of holiday til they've done some type of job for the club

     

    NOW is the time fo these people to be earning their wages, not being on holiday - it's not that hard a concept to grasp is it?  but then i suppose since employing so-called experts in their field we can make the same mistake of sitting back doing nothing til the window opens by which time EVERYONE is looking at the same players...far be it from me to think these people might actually think making early moves might have some benefit to their employers

     

    [i always get tripped up by this on here, you have to spoonfeed people every facet of your opinion otherwise they can't understand it, no-one seems able to make a leap]

     

    p.s. that's an excellent point about the CL final, i agree, who knows who wise met and spoke to?  so lets see that as a positive then, i agree

     

    Maybe they have 10 superstars just waiting to sign and they will do so when the transfer window opens?

  2.  

    I wish we would just bid for him tbh, he's clearly very talented and would be a sound addition to the team so why not just give them what they want? £12 million or whatever they want isn't THAT unreasonable surely.

     

    So there goes our 3rd record bid for a one-season only promising star?

     

    Why would he be one season only?

     

    Besides, I didn't see people having any qualms about shelling out more money on Modric who wouldn't have been hanging around for long.

     

    Be cool my friend, we will get in quality players I am very confident of this. It is doing my head in as well, especially with all the news of potential signings for other clubs.

     

    It is good we are taking a stand on the fees as we don't apear to be being reasonable. We are offering good money for these players it appears so we just need to be calm. They are clearly trying to rip us off but it is early enough in the summer where we can afford to be a bit patient.

     

    Unless said players have storming Euro 2008 tournaments.

  3. Bloody 'ell, wonder what will happen re: his contract, wages, being bummed

     

    Should be torn up; He can't get paid when he's in jail if Monopoly has taught us anything; Dabo probably tried to bum him once and look what happened to him

     

    If Monopoly has taught me anything it is that gigantic hats and irons dominate the London financial scene.

  4. Like arshavin's seen Keegan's interview ffs. Is sky sports news popular behind the iron curtain?

    Well, the Iron Curtain doesn't really exist anymore but I take your point ;)

     

    That's what they want you to think.

  5. No.

     

    Because they're shit.

     

    Yes... but they're not going to get any better unless we show them how to do it properly. If the FA and the BBC are going to force women's football on us we might as well make the best of it.

     

    Besides, it would be funny seeing Bramble getting skinned by a lass.

     

    He would get his own back by 'roasting' her in the showers after.

  6. I'm with centrepaddock82 tbh. Yes, the current top 4 have all the money, but of the next lot, we are pretty much the richest, and it hasn't got us success in the last 10 years. As someone else said, elsewhere, it's not that hard to imagine Benitez and Ferguson fucking off, leaving their next seasons an unknown quantity. Grant is unproven, Arsenal inconsistent (by their own high standards obviously) and a few are jumping ship there.

     

    Any one of those top 4's bubbles can and will burst, nothing is permanent. All it takes is a few bad decisions by the manager/board and the mighty will fall. And Keegan will exceed expectations, as he has always done here.

  7. HOW CAN A MAN CHOOSE BETWEEN THE LESSER OF TWO EVILS? MANURE OR CHELSKI? INSTANT DEATH OF LIVING IN SUNDERLAND? PAT BUTCHER OR ANNE WIDDECOME.

     

     

     

    ManU

    Pat Butcher

    Living in Sunderland

     

    tbh

  8. Man U deserve it, brilliant set of players

     

    Depends how you look at it. Chelsea have lost less games than them.

     

    I look at it in the sense that by and large manure attempt to attack teams and score goals.

  9. Quite a few on the skunkers board from Hull area. Perhaps you should post there too?

    Thanks for the heads up, will do just that now. :thup:

     

    Good luck. :lol:

     

    :kasper:

     

    You could have told me before I posted it on there! :lol:

     

    Just read the thread - I thought it went quite well, all things considered

  10. He has to pass his medical first!  Be a laugh if he were to fail it!

     

    Seriously though, do we really want a player who goes to a club purely for their geographical position, because our whole set up is better than Spurs in terms of support, ground, training facilities, academy etc.  He will regret going to spurs when he sees NUFC take off next season.  I don't even think Spurs have a player I would want at NUFC.  Owen will outscore Berbatov next season and Martins and Viduka will more than match Keanes exploits.  I think Ledley King is the only Spurs player I would be mildly interested in, and he can't play more than 20 games a season now due to his injuries.  Mark my words, Modric may be good but he is only one player and when he is surrounded by mediocre players like Jenas and Huddlestone, he will fade into obscurity.  It may be we have used Modric as a smokescreen for some other deal. Lets wait and see what happens!

     

    Got to love that optimism...

     

    Disappointed, but plenty more fish in the sea..
