Even if they are, there is no evidence to say it's not just Ashley looking for compensation or suchlike. Staveley seems to have decided to go quiet now after giving daily updates to Caulkin for months. Maybe that's how things should have been done all along however.

I thought that was Miguel Delaney? You could well be right. I'm going to carry on pretending it was Edwards he called that though, would have been funnier.

He's probably been banned for a week for calling Luke Edwards a lego headed cunt Luke Edwards is clearly a grass like.

The reactions too

Stifler also has to blame the referee every single game without fail. It's quite cute really.

This. There is no point. I didn't watch the game because, as you say, what's the point? Also in response to another point by Optimistic Nut, what's the point in a few more fans seeing Bruce for being useless? Even if Ashley sees him as useless, who really cares any more. Roll on the next shit manager who will do as Ashley wants. Bruce isn't the problem, Ashley is.

Don't let Kaka see that

Your last post about him was pretty cringeworthy. It definitely can't be cringeworthy to suggest he's not worth £40 million, unless you are off your rocker. What is it about him that impresses you so much? And also, why do you take any criticism of him so personally? I think it's the other way round, some of the hate mob take it too personally. I was actually taken aback at the abuse he was getting on the match thread considering it was a game where there was some absolutely shocking football being played regardless of his performance. That may be fair enough, I haven't seen the posts and haven't been posting about him during matches.

Ahem, I never rubbished Almiron as his quality is obvious to anyone. He was also bought by a manager for a specific reason, to fit into a team and was scouted extensively (and opinions from people that knew him sought). This clown was bought by Ashley to calm the masses as an expensive signing. Not really for footballing reasons. There is no comparison between the 2. Stop getting so defensive of an Ashley signing...it's cringeworthy (to use your own words).

What a time to be alive eh

Well if I'm not mistaken it was reported as worth "upto £40 million". If you think Ashley has paid out that full amount then I give up.

Even if he's not a striker, he cost 40m and he looked terrible doing simple things versus Blackburn. OK, maybe he's out of form, fine. But the point still stands - he has not earned his place into the team. People need to stop trying to shoe-horn a 40m player into the team because of what he used to do 2 seasons ago at Hoffenheim. He's not even a £40 million player. I'd love to see some actual evidence that NUFC paid that much for him but I'm convinced it doesn't exist. I'd be amazed if the club have actually paid out more than £16 million for him. Even then, Ashley has been had completely.

Agree with this.

I don't think he did, he stated he was prepared to (because unreasonable Rafa thought the clubs money would be better spent elsewhere - as has been proven to be the case).

Especially seeing as the PL apparently hate us and have a huge agenda against us.

It is stupid. Judging someone solely on 90 minutes isn't much better mind. And this isn't any dig at Hendrick or his performance at all.

Bruce. If Darlow keeps a clean sheet or 2 by some miracle expect Dubravka to be dropped for good

Would have been really happy if this lad signed when Rafa was here. Don't think even I can wish him to fail

Start the season as you mean to go on eh Andy? Bruce will be loving that.

"To be fair to Mike, he only wants what’s best for the club" How long until he dedicates a win to Mike I wonder.

Sorry but lets be honest he's yet to prove he is a player of any description.
