  1. Fans - Llambias' "sale" of Andy Carroll to Liverpool was "difficult to stomach".
  2. What about another, last 'call of the dice'? Just did for you sir, with another set of dices, and the score came up: 3 - 3 Let's hope the "last call of the dice" is true then!
  3. Would be nice to have someone who has the ability to get on the end of them next season.
  4. Just rolled the dice twice. First roll was us, second for them. The game will end: 2 - 3

    Would be nice to see him get 2-3 minutes in the last home game.
  6. Given Barton-Woodgate-Albert-Enrique Solano-Speed-Lee-Robert Shearer-Beardsley
  7. Should seriously look into giving him away to a newly promoted or top championship team in the summer on the basis that we don't have to pay any of his remaining wages. Surely there has to be someone stupid enough to take that offer?
  8. Doubt it would be well received by the fans if he went over to them and clapped
  9. Why not just play him until he is one card away, and then make him sit out rest of the games, if any. If he gets a yellow against Birmingham, and he sits out the rest of the games, maybe that will make him think about being a bit more careful next season. I know he hasn't deserved all of them, but it's still to many.
  10. So many posts, and not one mention of Perch yet. It's Perch, followed closely by Smith. Oh, and OP man, that's hilarious:lol:
  11. I finished my bachelor thesis today and bought a Macbook pro. This was supposed to be a day of celebration. Now im just sad.
  12. Just turned the game on, and heard something about Tavernier replace Perch...?

    180 Finally paid off to collect football cards in the early 90's.
  14. QPR have done exactly the same thing though if they don't get a point deduction, as they are cheating a team in the championship out of the opportunity to play in the PL. They even did it after rules were implemented to prevent it, which is worse. Put them in the place under the last team that has a mathematical chance of a play-off place. Then we buy Taarabt.
  15. Though call. It wouldn't be fair to teams fighting for a play-off spot to be bumped down. If points are to be deducted, they should deduct them as many as it takes to put them under the last team that still has a mathematical chance of reaching a play-off spot. It really is crazy how it has taken two years to find this out. There should be procedures involved when registering players that prevents this from happening in the first place.
  16. Seems like has have a good goalscoring record, is young and hard working (due to being south korean). Too bad his name isn't Won-Dong, so we could call him wor dong.
  17. Not that I think it will happen, but imagine this place if Liverpool get Barton and Enrique this summer
  18. Is that the Sissoko from Toulouse?
  19. it is a good post, but it glosses over the issue which strikes at the absolute heart of what the club is about now. that is, that we replaced a very well performing manager who was popular with players and fans, with a man who had very little reason to be hired other than he didn't deserve the position and therefore was more likely to agree to demands placed upon him on transfer policy. and my oh my, weren't we all shocked when carroll went in january. yes the money was massive, yes its a great deal if you put the money back into the team PLUS the money that should have been due to be invested anyway. but the chain of events is as plain as day imo, would anyone be surprised if the big debate in the winter is whether we were right to accept a massive bid for tiote on deadline day? I would understand it if we received a ridiculous bid (£30m+) for Tiote a few hours before deadline and we took the money without being able to find a replacement. I wouldn't like it though, but it's too good to turn down from a business point of view, and we can't buy a replacement just in case someone makes a last minute mega bid for our players. if we want to progress, at some point we have to say no. our most important players shouldnt be for sale at any price (yes i know even man u had to sell ronaldo, nani was already at the club though, its different). what if we were offerred 300 million for our entire first team squad? that would be good business, right? we could just play the kids, get relegated and then we'd have loads of money to buy a new team to push for promotion Theoretically it would be a great deal. Including the Carroll money we could buy 25 £13.4m players, or 11 £22.7m players and 14 £6m players etc etc. Theoretically, if we got proportionally value for money as we have under the current regime, we could possibly become the best team in the world. Theoretically, that would give the club much better revenue due to the champions league and other prize money, shirt sales etc, and we could afford not to sell the players.
