Nah i reckon we've got one final bid in us. Get Debuchy to cause a ruckus and that might be enough.

And Marveaux, Raylor, Shola...

My team keeps changing and it depends on where Dempsey, Debuchy, Adebayor and Allen end up. Also, whether Dawson or Tevez play. Currently: De Gea Green A Cole Lescott Tomkins Gunter A Williams Mata Kagawa Cabaye Noble Michu Aguero Torres Pogrebnyak

Mick Foley said in his books that it's much better to build someone up before delivering that crushing insult. Much more effective than constant insults. So maybe the technique is to be all "Lee, Lee, don't listen to the trolls. You're a great reporter", "I really enjoyed your exclusive last Wednesday" and "I'm surprised the nationals haven't picked you up yet". Gain his trust before crushing him with "Perhaps its because you're shit at your job and a condescending wanker". That'll hurt him.

I think it says 'Pardew still optimistic on recruits'. Might be wrong though.

He'll say "we might have to move on", "other targets are lined up", "tried our best" etc. Basically there'll be disheartening comments that disguise his mind games, so they could mean anything.

Clever move, i guess.

I tested between 9 and 11 of the N-O forum puns to see if they met a criteria for a ban. The results were very surprising. No pun in ten did. No way!

Rondon or Remy is where we should be looking. After Debuchy, of course....

Standing ovation, sir.

THEY WENT BACK ON SALE?!?!?!?! Unbelievable, man

Here we go again....

You start to think this is over, then he says all that. Followed by Lille's interest in Reveillere. Hope is the cruelest emotion.

These are the same creatures that believe Llorente would pollute his life by stepping foot in that hellhole.

Optimistic Nut has stayed true to his name and I love his positivity. Keep it up

They'll probably turn around and buy Bosingwa tomorrow, leading to more emotional torture for us

Bit worried that we'll not bother with another bid. Even though the asking price is more than fair.

Oh c'mon, man. Just accept it!

Sahin is a good player. Not sure why they need Cazorla though, surely M'Vila is the answer.

End of the week? Which week? The same week as the last two "end of the week" claims? I'm spending time with Sky Tyne & Wear's video journlists tomorrow and dreaming of a dash to the airport to see Debuchy!

His second name is Good. HA! Funny.

At least it sounds imminent. ....ah right, Lee Ryder. Never mind.

Even if they reject this, I'd imagine the final fee will be close to it.

Title change to start the day By the evening, it'll be one step forward and one step back again!

That is how Opta still calculate them - a team's # of passes as a percentage of overall match passes. Amongst football statisticians, this is still hotly debated and causes many arguments.
