Bafetimbi Gomis

[Unbelievable]

We're just posturing tbh.

[Mole_Toonfan]

Aulas could be bullshitting tbf but i doubt it and it does sound like something we would do.

 

 

[Gallowgate Toon]

That's a risky strategy on Aulas' part, to say that in the public domain.

Perish the thought we'd be doing something constructive to actively strengthen the squad. Let's just posture and play the game out.

 

Not a pop at you btw.

This fucking club man.

[Interpolic]

Holy fucking shit, if that's true. New levels.

Sounds like a lot of lost in translation bollocks.

Agree.

It happens on Football Manager but think we must be the first club to try it in real life

As Dave pointed out earlier, when his investment is in peril we are able to pull of five signings inside a week. Yet, despite all the bravado in early summer, here we are again on the eve of the start of our Premiership campaign with not a first team signing in sight trying to be clever to get the best possible deal financially. At best it is incompetence, at worst it is gross negligence. My fear is it's the latter.

[Heake]

As I see it, it's a win win situation: We get Gomis & begin to feel more optimistic about the impending season or we don't & find solace in feeling vindicated abut despising JFK / Ashley.

Yes, it's wrong, but somehow, in my nappa, it's right

Agree.

 

Have to admit, my French is fairly decent having lived there for 4 years, but I can't make head or tail from that quote.

End of the world in this thread? Over a tweet that may or not be translated properly and, if it is, doesn't suggest the deal is dead.

I have asked 3 different people and i'm getting a different answer every time so i think you are right.

[Gallowgate Toon]

Just read the tweet. I believe he's saying we've asked Gomis to lower his wages and that's the stumbling block, not the fee. That would make sense considering the tweet it was in response to.

Spurs did it was Adebayor, successfully i might add

It's possible that's what he means, although I've never heard the phrase "faire un effort" used for lowering demands or something similar. Even then, what is 3k on 70k?

Lee Ryder ‏@lee_ryder 29s

#Lyon started the day citing the fee was an issue and #nufc dropped out and end it by saying it is Gomis' wage demands. Make your mind up.

[Ashley17]

Can anyone translate Ryder?

[Unbelievable]

Hi Lee!

[Ronaldo]

Btw, what good manager would work under the utter shambles we have at the moment as well.

 

I hate Pardew, but he's the best of a shocking list of managers we could have at the moment.

 

Agree 100%. No real manager will come near this lot.

[Hanshithispantz]

I think his "Make your mind up" at the end was aimed at himself. Fuck knows what the sentence that preceded it was.

I took it as to take a cut of 3k a week. You're right though, it's difficult to work out his angle. I think it's safe to say, judging by what he was responding to, that he was suggesting Gomis was the issue, not Lyon.
