Guest Gemmill Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 How is Carroll not the exact epitome of asset stripping? Sold him for 35m in January, broke even in this window. Barton, Nolan and Enrique's wages must be pretty close to the Ba, Marveaux, Cabaye, Santon and Tiote's raise as well. Still, let's facepalm everything. We'll seem smart then!! Me and you just can't see the bigger picture, Shak. We're a club on the up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Jay Sea Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 f***ing hell lads, have you heard of reinvesting? I should have known better than to come on here and try and talk to the Ashley apologists. This. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only player we've sold at a profit recently is Andy Carroll, clubs sell players sometimes, you know. That's football. The board lacks ambition and should have spent more than they did, but they still improved the squad (yes, they did), but they're not asset-stripping.

Guest Gemmill Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 :joker:You tell me. We've got a League 1 strike force, £35m in the bank and yet they've "improved the squad". Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest thebigfella Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 Could n agree more with Joey Barton he knows the two pricks and hs every rite to call them santon will be good but has no premiership experience and also is a rb that we are going to play at lb square pegs!! The club has no ambition spending ages trying to get erdic and maiga why didn't we justmove for Ruiz in the beginning! So annoyed:/ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, we bought quality players for low prices, hence there's still money in the bank but the squad has improved. Numpty. Leon Best's 8 in 11 are pretty good for a League 1 striker.

It's okay, if Cabaye had cost £20m instead of £4m, we'd all be bleating about how fantastic it was that Ashley spent some money and the ambition that he showed was amazing. Football fans are fickle.

Shearmagic you are clearly either delusional or a WUM If it's the former wake up my friend, we are all being taken for a massive ride How was it not a success? We didn't bring a striker in, arguably our only failure. We've improved the midfield and the defence is playing the best it has in a long, long time. Teams with the quality in midfield that we have don't come close to getting relegated, mission successful. Not every team fulfils their goals in the transfer window, there's plenty of other teams that didn't fill positions that they wanted/needed to.

thomas Posted September 1, 2011 Share Posted September 1, 2011 I'm torn between despising ashley/llambias and not wanting our name dragged through the mud in public further. My suspicion is most people cheering Joey on in this figure the club can't get any lower so why not slag off the owners in public. I'm of the opinion that we still command the slightest shred of dignity and respect in the game and would rather Joey should shut his dumb cunt mouth.
