The wages should be lower since we're counting them as transfer spend. If we pay £1.5m for a player and count it as a £3m out of the transfer kitty to account for his wages over the contract then that players wages aren't added to the wage calculations, right? People kept on saying part of the Carroll cash had gone on Tiote's bumper new contract so he's not in our wage calculations, yeah? Our wage bill should be fucking tiny with our bullshit accounting.

You can be pissed off about something without being surprised by it.

You're supposed to tap up other teams players, Alan. You're doing it wrong.

No one will leave this window until Lee has licked it clean.

Football clubs have other costs Which were already accounted for and paid from current revenues. We are making profit remember? Unless there's an extra £80m of spending this year that nobody's mentioned. HBAs tab at munchies coming due maybe?

Was Pardew that kept bringing up Ba's clause too iirc. Head of NUFC sales dept this tosser.

Well that's a kick in the tits. Factor in wages, boreholes, agents fees etc and we'll have about £2m left for transfer fees. Still, Portsmouth, Leeds blah blah, oh fuck it all to hell.

Poor babies.

Double it and we'll come to the table.

Speak English Mr Murrican.

Best if we lave that sort of thing alone for a little while after the horse punching. Unless you lot fancy setting fire to a horse....

NUFC transfers: Aware of -> Watching -> Monitoring -> On the verge -> Preparing a bid -> Transfer window shuts -> Spiel about magic lines -> News we have a huge list of targets for the next window

Why would we sign anybody? We're not getting relegated so why spend money we don't have to?

Martinez doesn't do that nearly every week like Pardew does and i would say that is to put pressure on Stevenage, not give himself and his team an excuse if they lose. Jesus, do people still not accept what our manager does. Martinez on Monday: "The second half I must admit the condition of the pitch didn't allow us to control the game in the way we wanted, to concede the goal in the manner that we did was unfortunate." Pathetic excuses nearly every day of the week. You're comparing a goal conceded in a game Everton didn't lose, against : Science, The Notting Hill Carnival, Spies, Other teams being in form, Not running fast enough, lack of Magic, Can't complete with sovereign states, His own team selections, Lack of height, Travelling, Difficult run of fixtures, Fatigue in October, Thank god we're not in the Europa league this season, Journalists, Congestion of the transfer market, Not enough fans, Fans being nervous, etc, etc, etc. Well done, not sure if you're stupid or naive. Don't forget the classic 'tired from playing in midweek and rusty from not playing in midweek'.

Phil Jupitus has put on a bit of weight.

That really works well typed out.

First Vagina, now Uterus, weird club. I think this line of thought says more about the members of this forum (and what may be missing from their lives) than sunderland's transfer policy.

Shola does kind of look like a creepy guy who's just wandered in. Like when you used to get your holiday photos back and there's some bloke standing right behind you that you never noticed.

Don't be silly. You won't get a better grey haired english manager with the initials AP and a propensity to say 'we was' rather than 'we were' you stupid no nothing deluded geordie, get back in your hole.

I'm not excusing anything, i'm saying this style of football is quite clearly not as easy to be successful with when only a handful of managers in the country actually a making a name for themselves with it. Every fan wants to watch this exciting brand of football so why do the majority of managers here play ‘anti football’? Just a question, forget Pardew for a second, just think of reasons why managers refuse to implement exciting football on their side. And like i said, standard of players isn't really the best excuse when Martinez done it in the lower leagues, as did Rodgers. Oh, if we're going for managers 'in the country' then we can hoy in Martinez, Laudrup, Wenger, and Pochettino anarl.

Kevin Keegan Bobby Robson Thanks for that Sherlock, so your realistic answer is 0. You can't think of a single manager from the PL down to League 2 that is worthy of even a mention? This exciting brand of football that every football fan in the country wants to watch yet not one English manager is able to implement that style of play on his side and make it successful. Brendan Rodgers and Nigel Adkins without even bothering to think about it dipshit. Your knowledge of football may be comparable only to your testicles for insignificance but some of us actually watch the game. Brenden's Irish And northern ireland is part of.... Its not part of England anyway and that's what the conversation was about Apologies, I had thought he said British in his post. I like to wind my Irish mate up by telling him he's British too as Ireland is geographically British.

Why are we talking exclusively about English managers when it comes to playing style? Have to narrow it down. It'll be managers who previously played in defence for crystal palace next.

Fourth in the prem is scraping the barrel? Get to fuck dipshit.
