Hope we're not actually trying to move him on. Would be devastating if Shola somehow managed to yet again notch up over 20 appearances next season too.

I'm fully expecting Bolton shirt sales in Korea to go down to zero seeing as we've signed the Japanese Messi to (indirectly) replace LCY. Ah well, at least we've opened up another potential marketing opportunity [obviously not being serious, as both transfers were for football reasons] You can't "go down" from zero to zero man.

Pretty sure clubs see Asian footballers as instant upward pointing arrow on a merchandise sales chart. Corinthians have not long signed a Chinese guy and pretty much admitted he's only there as a marketing stunt. Just found the article and the head of marketing for Corinthians advised to bring in "any old rubbish" from Asia to boost merch sales. Should get yourself down to Copacabana beach Oldtype. Could wind up playing for a team in Rio. Well, Koreans certainly aren't going to be buying CSKA Moscow shirts anytime soon as long as they have Satan on their books. Their manager says he's "amazed that he's not playing for the Korean national team." Well yes, that might have something to do with the fact that he's never played in our top flight. EDIT: apparently been registered for their CL squad. Maybe he's actually uh... good?

What the heck is that thing in the title supposed to be

Imagine if this becomes another Tiote-during-the-summer saga where they're stuck in Equatorial Guinea forever. We'd commit mass suicide.

Lee Chung-Yong if Bolton go down. Injury has probably dropped his stock low enough for us to grab him at a fair price. Do it Mike!

CSKA Moscow have signed some random dude I've never heard of from the Korean second division. Weird.

I imagine the club will be reassessing their position on Kadar or looking for a Lamine Diatta type signing on a free.

Dave thinks we'll get him!? http://troll.me/images/astonished-face/what-sorcery-is-this.jpg

Honda's been linked to a west-European club for every window since the 2010 World Cup. Never materialized. His nickname in Korea is "the living transfer rumor"

Deft mind games, trying to get the player to agitate for a move.

No to 3m you say? Fine, 2.5m is our final offer!

So the plan is to sequentially bump the Krul, Colo, Ba, and Tiote threads all day, eh?

Carroll makes 14m for Defoe look like a complete bargain to be fair

They actually bid. This actually happened.

Hasn't he had injury problems? Missed the last month of last season with a spinal injury. Been back playing pretty decently (for the level he's at) as far as I can tell. Doesn't seem all that prolific in second division. True. Local press is implying that he's doing alright though and that's all I have to go on. He's no Park Chu-Young, mind. ()

"People's Rooney" is having a medical at Koln.

How many penalties have we averaged per season in the last few years? Must be something like 0.8

I want to punch some of these happy Brighton fans

That's probably a penalty again, but whatever. We never get any.

Be happy in ONE match thread! We're disgusting whenever I bother posting in one.

We're not even going to touch the ball before full time, are we? I fucking hate football. Fuck this shit.

Brighton have taken a full two minutes for their throw in

Whatever, we're obviously never going to have blatant handballs called in our favor.
