Well, that's one bonus of them going bust

Santa Cruz has a lot to prove but the ability is obviously there somewhere

the quote is "Get real, Kinnear didn't even acknowledge Xisco was here" - nothing was said of team selection, the post was about not ACKNOWLEDGING him and you argued with it. Maybe you'd like to rethink your stance on Xisco now?

once again, ignoring your own posts. If you agreed with what Blefuscu said about Kinnear refusing to acknowledge him, why the fuck did you argue with her? Anyway, now that by some miracle, you've changed your attitude and disagree with Kinnear's treatment of him, you wont be so quick to call the lad a cunt.

what a f***ing stupid thing to say. Get real, Kinnear didn't even acknowledge Xisco was here. When he was talking in the press he would say "I have however many strikers" and name them and not even mention Xisco. He was treated appaulingly. why single out kinnear? shearer didn't play him either , you know. i suppose shearer wouldn't pick torres as well ? fact is, if he was good enough he would have played. the fact shola and carroll were picked ahead of him speaks volumes. this is the one I was talking about and you know it

Her post doesn't say anything about them not picking Xisco though. It attacks the fact that Kinnear refused to acknowledge him. You obviously though it was worth an arguement though. Can you see where one might get the impression that you agree with Kinnear?

Come on, you spent the entire Xisco thread arguing with anyone who suggested he was treated unfairly by Kinnear. I got the impression that you thought Kinnear was absolutely right to ignore him and i'm sure I wasn't the only one. Why did you argue with Blefuscu if you agreed with her post, as you've just said?

How do you work that out like? I pay more for Setanta than I ever did for Prem Plus and Sky have increased their prices on a regular basis. Setanta is a channel and Prem Plus wasn't, essentially So what? Fact is I pay more to see what I want than I used to before the ruling. How that is helping the consumer I've no idea. I'm just saying, the fact that Setanta is more than Prem Plus is perfectly justifiable given that Setanta showed more games They did? Prem Plus used to be £50 for 50 games. Setanta only ever had 46 games didn't they? For more than double the cost. PS - I'm not on about all the other stuff they show. I'm on about the Premier League. Fair enough, I was thinking of the FA cup and SPL etc etc to be fair though, I've only paid £30 and i've had it for 10 months

Imply? Blefuscu criticised Kinnear for refusing to acknowledge him and in the very next post you argue with her and defend Kinnear. That's all the implication we need pal. Be a man and come out and say it. Do you think Kinnear was right to ignore Xisco?

People who went to see the reserve matches said he was pretty woeful. Even in the games he scored a few tap ins. So isnt it possible he just wasnt very good in training and maybe lacked motivation? no,of course it's not possible. kinnear didn't say hello to him you know? it's all kinnears fault. Sounds like you're defending Kinnear's decision to ignore him here like

did i?link? There's more than one post in the Xisco thread where you trivialise the fact that Kinnear ignored him provide the link to the post where i said kinnear was right to ignore xisco. Did you? Because that's certainly what it sounded like

As for saying Kinnear should have apologised You thought it was right that Kinnear ignore Xisco every single day but suggest that he should have apologised to N'zogbia for a slip of the tongue? Come on man

N'zogbia was treated badly and should never have been sold. But being offended by the mispronounciation was as blatant an excuse for wanting out the club as you'll ever see.

Because he'd prefer Santa Cruz and money is no object?

As shit as Kinnear's man management clearly was, the 'insomia' thing was blown so far out of proportion man. FFS he mispronounced the lad's name, there was no intent there whatsoever. He's basically just a bumbling old idiot

Nope. They are not allowed to have all the games. Someone else will have to bid. LivingTV are front runners. Love the fact you've just used the word nope where it clearly isn't applicable. I was either going to go with Setanta alone as I have now, or Sky and Setanta on account of the latter having the boxing Sky and Setanta it is I didn't detect the sarcasm is all. I assumed you were actually happy as rather than getting sky sports AND setanta, you just needed the sky sports package. I see what you mean, my apologies for not being clearer

Great, full sky sports package next year it is

If Wigan lose Bramble and Scharner I can easily see them going down

Taylor was so bad at CB for the first part of last season I really dont think Edgar could have done much worse tbh But, Taylor looked good at RB and I'm now pretty glad we have him tbh.

Cos he anticipated getting £12m to spend on a better player(s)? Also would have triggered a fair amount of controversy if he hadn't, given that he'd said a few days earlier that he didn't want the guy to leave. In theory that works but it seems really strange to me that he'd compromise his principles like that in order to save face for the club and then walk out 3 days later because of those same principles Well if you put yourself in his position it is easier to understand. He sells a player he doesn't want to sell but he gets big money for him and thinks he can replace him (and he probably would have with a better player). Three days later he not only hasn't been allowed to replace him, but he has watched Dennis Wise piss up big money on players who were not required. He wasn't gonna go on SSN and tell the world those were his decisions was he. When did I suggest he would? If his principles meant so much to him on September 2nd, why did he lie for the club 4 days earlier? Just seems a little odd to me
