1-0 spuds crouch

aye a loan would be good. Guess where mcmanus is going though, wee gordon displaying his fantastic worldwide europewide celtic scouting network

Some papers saying about £2m christ ashley must be having convulsions 2.7m out so far

and im not sure him and nolan in the same squad would be a good idea after their last encounter

hopefully they can get something sorted. now that the nice bits done with lets nick in with a cheap offer for moses

I can see them getting rid of a high profile defender. vidic in summer real, nailed on. hes staying at fulham for now smalling

Wonder what's their transfer budget ? Free agents and cheap loans market, nothing at all to get excited about for their fans. With their recent record of not paying staff and players, who in the right mind will join them even on loan? someone whos parent club is paying the bill and not pompey

Blatant asset stripping tbh. Straight into Ashley's fat pocket, fucking wanker, etc etc. Oh wait, some players we want to sell. blasphemy

a prem club will get him no doubt,

pity alright but i'd be happy with vaughn if that happened

no idea

Which will more then cover the wages of Simpson, Williamson and Routledge. much better value for money

Good point in there about them letting Yeates go. It's almost as if Strachan wants them to fail. Who's Yeates supposed to be going to? He looked impressive the few times I saw him. He's gone. Sheffield United I think? yup on the assumption theyd get routilage, strachens even thicker than i thought coz yeates looked good

apparently moyes wants huntelaar on loan too so maybe business can be done for vaughn

So... is Pancrate also faking only playing shit so we could buy one more winger? its all a cunning move by hughton in reality hes an evil genius

laugh then cry

nugent? hes back at pompey and doesnt look like extending his burnley loan

is there anyone who wants him though? real won't italian sides can't afford him and neither can german ones none of the english sides will go for him and barca the only real intrest we've heard of in europe apparently the players there don't want him as he might disrupt the dressing room Just what kind of wages is he really on? Also, Fernando Gago's agent met with Real Madrid officials yesterday. Marca understands City is offering €15m for him, while Real is reluctant to sell at this point. Most Real supporting friends I have (yes I do have them!) would bite their hands off. He's s*** and I reckon he would be way worse in the pacier EPL. 160k a week apparently One question, when you quote wage figures, are those always net or gross wages? In Spain the numbers quoted are always net. If that's a net figure, that's the kind of money we pay to Xavi and Iniesta (who are the second tier in our wage scale). don't know but at a guess its net since city can afford to pay it

its obviously whatever pompey owe watford on him

I never said Llambias and Ashley were picking the players so I don't know where you got that from, but I do think they will have hired an agency to do the job Wise was supposed to do and Hughton will have little say in who the targets are (but will probably identify the areas we need players for). You do realise the 2 players you highlighted as Hughton targets are Simpson who was loaned mid August and Williamson who we were linked with back then too. 2 months before Hughton got the "manager" job and 2 weeks after he said: Or was he just lying as he masterminded it all? It was Chris Hughton who was caretaker manager at that time right? In which case you would think he might have made suggestions as to who he would like within Ashley's budget? Or are you absolutely certain that Hughton has no input whatsoever and just trains the players who are expertly bought in by Ashley/Llambias through this agency? People at the time were wondering who was responsible for the signing. No-one really thought it was Hughton and some thought it was Ashley nicking ideas off the ex manager: More likely Ashley picking the cheap options from Shearer's list and quietly sidelineing the ones where he will have to pay a fee. So like I said if it was him in charge of transfers, he did a good job of keeping quiet and pretending he knew fuck all about what was happening. That quote from Hughton doesn't suggest anything in terms of who had the say on transfer targets, just that the clubs future was up in the air and who could say who may have to leave depending on what financial decisions were made by the current or future owners. Hughton has been pretty up front about his interest (or indeed lack of interest i.e Nol Solano, Davis etc) and has been open about the persuit of Perch, Beckford, and in terms of Williamson, he has stated his interest in bringing the player in was there before he moved to Portsmouth. The idea that he has significantly less say than the vast majority of his fellow managers regarding possible targets is balls imho. can't see Ashley or Llambias having a clue who Perch or Williamson since how many of us knew who they were until we bid for them so thats why I think hughton is picking the targets and running it by Llambias and Ashley before moving for them, more or less how every other club works on transfers
