True. If that was the plan we would have kept Enrique or Carroll or Barton or ... Barton doesn't deserve to be in that list. Barton's found his level. I'm not taking about his level or his character, but he starting talking about the board's lack of ambition, which eventually lead to him going away. He stays on that list.

Ba doesn't want #9 and we wouldn't give him a five year contract. You think all our other five year contract were made for them to run out? All about value. Far too much risk given his knee. I know that's what your taking about and it would be a chance to take for the club. But even with that on the form he's on now, he would be much more worth with a long contract. Otherwise other clubs could just see him run this one out, and if there's no problem, there's no problem.

Ba doesn't want #9 and we wouldn't give him a five year contract. Class interview that was. I didn't read that, sorry. Still believe he will stay and sign and new contract if that clause is true. Seems like a good guy and he'd do a Carroll anyway if he went away.

If there's no other sources, then I believe Ashley's "get the most money out of any transfer" (don't make a release clause), more than I believe Snoopy. on the other hand West ham got tricked with the 0£ relegation clause for a x million striker, so who knows. We'll see I guess. Number 9 and a 5 year contract is what I think will happen.

Seems like a bad decision, he was doing a good job as I see it. Wasn't following them much of course.

Is the goal actually going to be shown at some point?

FUCK YOU `ROVERS

YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSsssss

THAT IS ONE OF THE BEST GOALS YOU WILL SEEEEEE!!! HATEM BEN ARFA

That looks like it.

Simpson it seems. Thought he wasn't playing. So that means Raylor at right wing. Ouch...

Who's missing from this team in the match tread: NUFC: Krul, Santon, Colocinni, Williamson, R. Taylor, Tiote, Cabaye, Jonas, Ba, Shola. Subs: Harper, Best, Obertan, Ben Arfa, Vukcic, Perch, Sammy Ameobi. ?

It feels like this was a very important win for the team. In the second half it really looked like they were about to give up, and for me it felt like the bad run could go on for a long time. And then... Ben Arfa happened. Could be a season-changer that goal.

Wow, this team is awful, falling apart from the start. They should give us 2 goals at least, and N'gog in attack

Looks like we could be signing that Irish guy, N. O'Body. I'd more like that african lad, A. Nyone. Of course it could be a problem with the ACN coming up, and Mali are looking quite good, so we would probably miss him for a lot of games. But I think he's one for the future, so we should definitely go for it. 41 goals in 5 games isn't too bad after all. Even if it is in the dutch league.

This actually got me thinking about a world white 11 vs. a world black 11. Of course, it is quite hard to determine who actually belongs on which side. Maybe we can make a sub-forum discussing the race of different players. Admin, make it happen!

Was really starting to look forward to this one. Based on our other big-ish signings from Europe, where our scouts had the time to assess and the board had the (ridiculous) amount of time to get it done. I was a bit exited, and I just can't hide it.

Does that mean Ba will get it? Wouldn't mind that really, especially if it meant something to him.

I'm going to Knock out the first person who attempts a stupid pun with his name. This is silly. Let's Knock it on the head before it starts. Nah,lets all knock one out instead. Those are three bad puns.

Better story as 1-0. Very important points in our climb to 7th that season as well.
