not jumping in and judging on this, one thing i will say though is if i was a professional footballer in the top league who needed to leave and go home for deeply personal reasons there isn't an owner in the entire division, indeed perhaps the world, i could think would be worse to deal with than mike ashley

 

Needless dig iyam.

 

Ashley has many failings but none of this points to poor old Colo. Not with his father and that cuntish team demanding we allow him to join them. If there was something seriously wrong I'm sure the last thing on his mind would be football.

 

howld on, from what i can see noone knows anything from either side...so if we're making assumptions mine is going to be on the negative to towards ashley based on previous

 

i might have missed some shit, i'm aware, but i've never seen any hard facts about the reason colo wants to leave and/or discussions that have taken place so if i've missed something please fill me in

I'm sorry but there's no chance he'd do this if there wasn't a good reason. I just can't believe he's suddenly decided out of the blue he doesn't want to play another game, right in the middle of the season. Something clearly going on, the silence just makes me think it's something the club doesn't want to come out, like he's fallen out with Pardew. If the wife thing was true, why not come out and say it?

On Coloccini. Suspect #nufc have been taken a little by surprise by report he's quit football due to their refusal to terminate his contract

 

eh, what?!  He's packing in football altogether?!

 

Yeah. Until he signs for San Lorenzo.

Very very strange situation  :(

I guess we'll not have long to wait to find out though (if the press thing goes ahead)

It really is very disappointing indeed if true.

Just seems SO out of character, I can't quite believe it (for that reason)

This isn't going to end well for anyone (club or Colo)

 

Shame :sad:

And they are docked all their points for fielding a player that isn't theirs.

 

 

Should be fun all this. Warm up to Falklands mkII.

Wtf? I finally take some time to paint my walls (not sure if paint is the correct word like) as this loco window has taken up most of my time and now this? Didn't expect this.

 

Refuse to say too much about Colo until we know the reasons, there better fucking be a good one considering how poorly he has handled this, or more like going quiet about it. Worst timing ever.

 

Hopefully we'll know soon. Get Douglas/Sakho in (doubt we'll bring one in :(. )

 

 

And why the hell would you care about my walls :lol:

It doesnt stack up. Why would a highly paid captain of an English premier league team who has been a model professional since he joined all of a sudden decide "sod 'em". Theres something more to this.

 

Very much so. He's so determined to leave and it has to be right now - it's something he's willing to destroy his reputation for and effectively end his career. It makes no sense at all.

Cantona did something similar didn't he out of the blue at a similar age? Granted the timing of this is off.

No way would we being in another centre half from outside the Premiership. Two new centre halves is asking for trouble. If Douglas is still out of contract in the summer (was he ever?) can see that happening maybe.

 

Get a pre-contract sorted with him now, Douglas is supern and the main reason why Twente have kept the most clean sheets in thier league this season.. Colo is fkn shafting us

must be family related, whatever it may be...family or health, literally no other reasonable explanation

 

obviously he needs to be there over anything else, he's not stuck a regular transfer request in. Something to do with his missus.

Taylor and Mbiwa is an option if we get another CH in before the window shuts.

So San Lorenzo can't afford him and colo won't play.

 

What options do we have?

 

We won't terminate because that costs us.

We won't let him go for fuck all cause he's worth at least 6-8m.

 

How long would we have to wait for him to buy his contract out? How much would we receive.

If it was that his wife was ill or something equally bad like rumours say then surely he would have been allowed compassionate leave ages ago.

 

And his father/that club wouldn't be tapping up a £10m rated player, demanding he leaves but they won't pay for him if they had any respect for the situation.
