So keep whinging about it and feeling ill, if it happens, it happens. Feeling ill isn't going to change that, there's far more important things in life that you can actually control.

We're a stepping stone club at the moment, just like 15 others. People need to accept that, including the players. We can't just wander into Europe and sign the top players, they simply don't want to come. We're not a big enough brand for them, the only reason they'll sign for us (Cabaye, HBA etc) is to put themselves in the shop window to get a better move 2/3 years later.

We're showing improvements but we were still operating at a loss. This year it will obviously be at a profit because of transfer fees, problem with that? I don't get how Jose can be lauded as some sort of hero, when at the end of the day he's lying as well (all footballer lie, don't kid yourself) and the board (that is also lying) is hated. Everyone in football lies, people need to accept that and think rationally rather than have their head full of bias.

Can you please send me the clubs accounts? You've obviously seen them with such an unbiased and insightful opinion....

Cabaye? Just won the league in France and gave up the opportunity to play in the Champions League to sign for us. How is he not a "quality player"? I think Jose's made himself look a bit stupid and petulant tbh. Yes but we didn't spend £35m on him, so regardless of how good he is it doesn't matter. If we spent £35m on him everything would be alright though. nah that would be daft. spending 35 million on making the team better would be a canny idea though. you know, the team? the one you watch every weekend and would like to get better at playing football. The team has improved since the end of last season... It seems to me people just want the money spent, regardless on whether or not it actually improves the team. We've managed to improve it whilst not spending a lot of money, which is a huge deal because the money hasn't been spent. Easy solution - overspend. Everybody would be happy because we've spent the money that we had to

When he comes back he's going to be targetted every game, so I'd hope his body is going to be up to it.

He's right though. ... and like Barton, if he cared about the fans as much as he says he does he would have kept it quiet. He's done it to engineer a move, and that's the sole reason for it. All footballers are cunts.

Those who are solely believing Jose are pretty daft IMO. Footballers lie as well, and there's no doubt in my mind that his agent has been in his ear to do something like this. I'm not saying Jose is completely wrong FWIW, but there's a motive behind what he did and it's probably not all truthful. Pretty stupid tweet, because like we were ever not going to accept £35m for Carroll, and there's also over a month left in the transfer window + we've already brought in quality international footballers. See you later you cunt, don't let the door hit you on the way out.

Fuck me, hope this is the last time we decide to go to the States.

We're getting new L.E.D lighting advertising boards at SJP too, which no doubt came out of the Carroll money (despite getting enough to pay for them from sponsorship, I'd imagine)

Not sure if it's been mentioned but he was wearing #10 in the most recent training video posted to NUFCTV

:smitten:

All of this hatred directed towards him is rather pointless in the end. I don't like the guy, I'd rather somebody else was here - but they're not, so just live with it and accept it.

The Birmingham Mail have a different take on life at Aston Villa as they report the club will step up their re-building process this week although their pursuit of Charles N'Zogbia has got no closer.

Wait, so the class of the striker depends on the price? brb, buying Emile Heskey for £10m.

Rejected: News: Neil Lennon has confirmed that Celtic have had a bid rejected for Newcastle's Fraser Forster.

Agent is on holiday, hence the delay in the deal getting finalised.

IMO the fact that he chose us over Liverpool is a promisin sign, regardless of whether or not he's injury prone! More of the same please, starting with Jose...

In response to me, when I asked if there was anything in the rumours:

Worse side? If he ends up at blunderland They finished 8 places above Birmingham though. Thanks to Henderson, Bent & Gyan Hang on a minute,according to everyone on here Henderson is awful,make your minds up. He's not great, but he was a pretty important player for you.

That sunderland team really is shockingly bad.

At the moment he's our best striker, isn't he? And 12 months ago everybody wanted him gone, didn't they? So if we all want Shola to go now, in 12 months time he'll be.... Still here, because nobody is stupid enough to buy him. Why kid ourselves? He'll be signing a new fucking contract. It's amazing how such a truly awful player can spend so long at a top level club.
