I assume this is the transfer that Pardew said was going to happen regardless of the Cabaye situation? I like the move, it's just hard to get excited now with Cabaye going..

wish I hadn't logged back on, now off to bed angry..

If I were a manager I would always have at least one u-20 player on the bench every game. You can't use all the subs anyways so you may as will give someone the experience.

A better way of putting it. He's a more expensive version of Cabella, who we can't sign at the moment.

Grenier is too expensive and probably too good for us. I can't believe we've even been linked.

How far in advance are Premier League matches switched around for television coverage? (Thinking about getting over to see a game, but don't want the time or day of the match being switched if I book stuff too far ahead..)

so many new pages in this thread but so little progress. Seeing Sunderland able to achieve something this season while we go on autopilot is really making things unbearable. Oh well. .

I thought all that was believable until our name popped up.

A transfer policy that is ruining the sport, a horrible owner, a c*** of a manager, a racist captain, and (mostly) terrible fans... I hope that club burns to the ground.

No, but he's usually up against much weaker competition. I think he's found out that the only way he can contribute in the league is by holding the ball up and diving. He should never have left Holland before the World Cup, it was the one place he could score.

Shut it off, what happened?

Hate seeing Chelsea get that much money for someone..

I think we got frustrated dealing with his agents, plus with his age and contract situation we were never going to pay that much anyway.

Would be a good fit but I think Spurs are asking for too much, which is why he hasn't gone back to Schalke

I don't even want him anymore

These Montpellier people are crazy, they must be the French version of Newcastle. It's a wonder we got one deal done with them.

Good player, thought he was on the verge of joining Liverpool?

This is enjoyable until I remember how much I hate Chelsea too. Helps us in the table though, I suppose.

3 - 0 in games that I've missed now

Was he any good at Blackpool?

Would hate to see that. I don't mind seeing older players going over there, but he has been only at Barca so why tarnish it with the MLS? Not many players these days can say that they have only played for one club, especially one like Barcelona.

Possibly because we've mostly lost.

Don't really care about the fee, we could get 10 million for him and still not use the money..

Was just going to say that

What a shit day.
