Stifler

Bent, was recently seen in Newcastle.

How? Ashley is a business man, and as soon as things started to get out of hand at the club his "dream of owning a football club" transformed into a plain business plan. He know no matter what he does he will be hated, i mean, can he really regain trust from the fans again? Not a chance. So what was he supposed to do, give up on it and just run with a massive loss? This is my opinion about the HBA deal though, not saying it's correct or anything, it's just MY opinion. I think a real business man only can be pushed to a certain degree before a line need to be drawn. With all these quotes from O'M president etc. that only seemed valid til the next day or so i can see why MA got fed up. Sign the player and please the fans, bending for the "pressure" of O'M, or refuse to play games with them and show other clubs that were not in for that. Even if it is a small amount of money which separates the deal the french have made him look bad, business/public wise. But then you have us, the fans, who demands signings and rightfully so because we all see we need it. So no matter how he would have done i think it was a lose/lose situation for MA and he probably decided that he would see it as a business man instead of pleasing us. Even if we would have signed HBA we would hate Ashley, and by not signing him we will still hate him. Meh, i`m not saying MA is totally blameless in this matter but tbh the french has pretty much toyed around with us probably from the first day knowing that a bid would come in. It was against all logic that no one else would go in for HBA.

Arsenal are linked with him now, though that is by caught offside.

Anyone think France football could be lying? I mean isn't it other sources in France who have been providing the information throughout this saga?

He's just a twat trying to post things so it looks like he knows what he's talking about, shame he hasn't looked where the real information is coming from.

Atleast you can still get his name on your shirt.

Maybe CH was corect when he said we hadn't had any contact with OM or Arfa.

Can this thred be locked now?

Arca.

Hopefully this will nudge us into action (I doubt it though), what is 8m Euro's?, £5m?

I told you.

Now Young Boys need to score another.

Fuck.

Nearly a penalty there.

Spurs are so useless they couldn't even take advantage of young boys.

42,524,523,542,534,563,635,545 is the page number we will be at when he signs.

Villa to me didn't play that well against West Ham, just West Ham being pretty poor. I think if you battle hard against this Villa side then we stand a good chance of getting a decent result, maybe even pinching the 3 points. Also hopefully by then Milner will be gone who creates so much of Villa's play, not only that but their goal keeper could be gone aswell who is fairly decent. We could be catching them at the right time, if battle like we did today with a bit more creativity then we stand a real chance. I'm going to say a draw but hopefully we will nick it by the odd goal.

Not too bad to be honest. The first two goals were basically down to a touch making the ball falling kindly in the path of Man Utd players. We put in some spirtited performances. Jonas before we conceded was pretty good, but his final ball lets him and us down, fix that and he would be a complete player. Carrol did better up front on his own then I expected, though he should of had his two headers on target. Up front we have some real height with him and Shola, again shame they couldn't get their headers that they had on target. Very good spirit for most of the game, though I feel that if players got forward more when we were attacking then we would of had more chances and maybe could of got a goal. Jonas did well to come in from the wing and cut through Man Utd, and if Man Utd keep allowing players to do what he did then they will be in trouble themsleves. The central defence for the most did very, a couple of hairy moments, Perch though was out of his depth tonight, maybe Simpson or possibly Raylor could do better there. Attacking wise we didn't do too badly, just need to work on the final ball and get a few more players to come forward. Over all not too bad, positives to take out the game aswell as negatives. We didn't exactly allow Man Utd play to what they can even though they were the better team.

Isn't he about 2 days out on the information?

I hope we win tonight so they can shave them off.

If Bellamy signs for Cardiff then I can see them tearing the Championship a new arsehole and will put McBoro in their place. Given to Arsenal, lets just hope we have a nice fee coming our way.

whats it like? what i'm trying to find out I tried finding one, it only came up with an app for goals etc from last season. I think thats the only app they do.

Damn, so many teams on MOTD so far have just shown soo much pace that we will just not be able to compete with.

Doncaster have levelled aginst Bristol City.

Reading have levelled against Portsmouth. Cardiff lead against Derby.
