West Ham agree fee in region of £15m with Liverpool for Andy Carroll


Recommended Posts

Speculation of Spurs coming in at a late stage and offering Crouch as a makeweight :lol:

 

We're not going to match Liverpools ridiculous bid.

 

Yes.... please f*** off.

Don't take your frustrations (and obvious mental issues) out on me please.

 

I should apologize on behalf of some of our fans, you're right, some of them have gone absolutely mental!  :idiot2:

 

I was talking about tottenham in particular.

its part of controlling the backlash to Ashley:

 

a) 'reject' a 2nd bid

 

b) say he handed in a request.

 

This

 

Obviously. It couldnt be more blatant.

 

:lol:

 

:lol:

I'm not the one making up pie in the sky conspiracy theories ffs :lol:

Why did he HAVE to submit a transfer request if this is all a conspiracy and told to do it?

 

Was he forced at gunpoint?

 

Money, man. It still doesn't mean he wanted to leave, but if he knew that the club didn't really want him to stay, I'm sure he would seriously consider leaving. How else would you feel if your club said 'we think we'll be better off if we sold you' which is effectively what accepting a bid is.

 

I'm not blaming him. I'm blaming Ashley for accepting a bid this late in the transfer window. The rest of this is just PR. Ashley's fucked up his PR enough to know that he can't afford to just sell Carroll when the player has said he wanted to stay. That would jeopardise the goodwill that has been generated in the past few months.

Fucking hell people

 

Carroll would not risk his reputation by letting Ashley say he had a transfer request if he didnt want to go

 

This is Carroll not Ashley

 

Ashley has played this as well as he could

 

ASHLEY IS NOT TO BLAME!

The fact we've rejected an offer and then accepted after the request suggests to me he wanted to go, absolute knob.

 

Come on. You've got more about you than that.

 

Textbook manipulation that you've all fallen for.

I don't understand the conspiracies regarding the transfer request.

 

The narrative as i see it:

 

Carroll knows Liverpool will boost his wages considerably > Newcastle refuse to sell but Carroll wants to go > Carroll hands in transfer request

 

What other narratives are there? Summat about Ashley saving face? I don't understand it.....
