Except Alan Smith

I know it´s petty, but I hope he continues how he does so Liverpool don´t get the player they could have had. He can come back here after Liverpool get tired of him, and resurrect his career and life.

Maximising his profits? He hasn't made any money from owning us as far as I know. More like minimizing his losses atm.

Not exactly. One guy called it, and the rest of RTG abused him.

It´s bad, but it´s funny!

He was outstanding in the 02/03 season though. No one can deny that. Of course he isn´t good enough now, and never probably were either after that one season.

I remember I was creaming my pants regularly in the summer 2003 just thinking about Beattie in our team. Shearer mkII if I ever saw one.

like anyone take notes. There were plenty who called for a statement around the end of the deadline and the day after.

Anichebe Distin, Neville & Cahill aren´t exactly spring chickens either. How will they be able to replace them and Saha in 1-2 years? They´ll be fine this year, but without any investment they are going to struggle.

Good thread

Sibierski disagrees

Hope the club have a designated Smith-watch near the fax machine to accept any offer that comes in within seconds to call Bates bluff.

Crumpy is the only person I like being negative on here all the time. He does it with such class.

And younger! http://www.gifflix.com/files/1d6fad263217.gif

I know a korean kiosk that tapes expired soda cans to the packs of batteries they sell, and it´s non-negotiable to leave the soda out. Can´t we do something similar with Smith the next time we sell a player?

Crouch and Helmes in. Gyan out. Hopefully this happens. http://media.giantbomb.com/uploads/0/140/212491-shane_large.jpg

You make it sound like we know what we are doing If these deals are anything to go by, you know exactly what you're doing. You run the risk of upsetting some posters Neil. Ashley and Co are cunts and there's no way past that, all these class signings must be some kind of accident or - ah got it.. they'll sell for more. I think you'll struggle to find anyone who is unhappy with the signings we've made. It's the gaping holes in the squad and lack of willing to push the club as far as possible that pisses people off. 'Gaping' holes? Please clarify. I can understand the latter part of your statement but some people seem unable to communicate clearly if you think it is just that which pisses people off. Well we've been extremely lucky to get away with playing Ryan Taylor at left back for four games this season. Starting the season without a single left back on the books is/was a bloody joke. We've had seven months to work out what to do with the Carroll money and bring in strikers that relegate our Championship-esque strikeforce to the bench or out of the squad altogether and aside from Ba (who I firmly believe like Gosling was signed more because he was available on the cheap rather than with a genuine belief he'd fit what we're trying to do) we're still here fucking around with a day to go. We needed a striker adding going into January, and that was before we sold Carroll. We've hardly any right-wing options that aren't square pegs in round holes, and the same goes for centre back cover. As I said, our signings on their own look great, but there's an almost complete lack of consideration for the overall picture IMO. It's very misleading to suggest that 'the negative people' are unhappy with our signings. Most depressing poster award 2011 is unrivaled

Yeah, that´s definitely happening

It´s only ambition if you pay over the odds for players.
