If those really are the only three bids then I think we could well pull it off. Problem is if someone in the Premiership decides to take a punt.

The administrators will hold out for a good price, but they have no reason to risk a deal falling through by only accepting one bid (the highest). More likely they will accept all the decent bids and the player will have his pick. Administrators want to get money back, but they also want to act quickly and get rid of assets for good prices without taking too many risks.

He's addressing fans comments though. If they are making these comments then surely he has the right to reply? He's got the right to reply, doesn't mean it's a wise thing to do though.

I just think it's not an appropriate thing for a chairman to do, he should be saying this to his staff in private, not in the press.

Really hope you're right, this 'he gets goals' thing is rapidly starting to look like a stupid argument.

I expect we'll hear much more of this during Routledge's time here. I told everyone not to start on this!

I know we haven't had any glory... what I meant was picking the nearest Premiership (as we were) team rather than supporting Hibs or whoever.

Get well soon Jose.

Yeah but it just shows that he's lost his rag - not what you want from a chairman. Smacks of him wanting to put himself in the clear while hanging his manager and players out to dry. Might go down well with a section of the fans but I imagine the manager and players won't be impressed.

Yeah, that's what I mean, I don't really want us to sell him but I can see it happening.

That's immense, can only do damage of course.

You're probably right, but it might have to become possible the way things are going.

Who cares anyway? I thought glory hunters were bad?

Interesting situation now when S Taylor is fit... I guess we might eventually see the departure of Colo - as much as I don't want that.

Out of two chances, if he fluffs one and scores the other I'll be well happy.

I just think he believes he's doing his job. He takes it to extremes, he thinks his only job is to sit 5 yards in front of the defence and run about a bit. Who knows - maybe that's what he's been told to do.

Looks like the deal will be permanent, if it's a loan then it's an emergency one in the meantime... so he can play tonight.

I like Fulham, their fans are quiet but the ground is lovely. Also Reading, because I used to live there and go to a few games.

Got to agree so far. Strange.

They're stupid enough not to play him though, so anything's possible. Never understood why Rafa doesn't seem to rate him. Probably doesn't return the best heart monitor results in training.

I was going to suggest this but then realised it was pointless.

Totally, I feel massively sorry for them. Always the fans that get fucked over when football clubs are bought, sold and played with like toys.

I love to think of Warnock going mental, can't stand the man.

I know, he's coming to toon!!!
