Ronaldo

To save money of course and in the same time to imitate some transfer action... How would it save money? In the form of not paying any money [if a straight swap as suggested], attracting a player and releasing one. Thus, no transfer fee, offsetting wages and showing the fans that they are working on new recruits. Outcome: Same numbers, no outlay. So they can say that they've attracted a new body, but in fact it's a freebie [sort of]. Most probably, Rout's wages are higher than these of McWhatever guy. How would it offset wages? This lad will probably want more than Routledge is on. McGugan wouldn't make our first Xl. In fact, he wouldn't make the bench if we were to get another couple of atttacking players in. I'd rather take a couple of million from Routledge's sale and put it towards a player we do need.

What's the point?

Yes.

Come a hell of a long way in the 2 years since LLLO told me he wasn't good enough for The Championship, like. Great player and great man. Very happy for him.

Thanks "The next time you appear in my court, you will look lawyerly. And I mean you comb your hair, and wear a suit and tie. And that suit had better be made out of some sort of... cloth. You understand me?"

Still think as things stand he's good enough for the bench. I'd keep him.

Great avatar, thomas!

From the same Lee Ryder article. Lee is to journalism what your local rapist is to consensual sex.

Eh? Best was on the bench about 4 times.

Ranger is going out on loan, surely?

Not unlike Ameobi. Yeah, Shola gets goals.

Won't be much of a fight.

Fair play to him for facing some difficult questions. Hughton avoided the easy ones.

It was 'Britain's Toughest Cops' or something equally daft. Covered the policing of the occasion.

He was asked that on a Manchester radio station about 6 weeks ago. And yes, he said NUFC is his club and always will be.

I watched a documentary the other day about our trip to Carlisle last July. There were a couple of dickheads with his name and number on the back of their 09-10 tops. Incredible.

Bit of a step down, like.

Compared to most footballers? Yes.

He's loveable.

You need footballing ability to do well. SWP lost his a long time ago.

I want a striker and a RB first.

Unwilling because he's perfectly happy where he is. Ronaldo shouldn't get extra points because he got tired of British weather.

Hopefully KD will arrive to provide some terrific insight - like he did with Gomes.
