Guest Slippery Sam Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Seems like a storm in a tea cup if you ask me. He'll end up wearing a sponsorless shirt and that'll be the end of it. Papiss loves the Toon man Why would Wonga agree to that? Think about the extra advertising Wonga would get. An absolute huge amount of subliminal advertising. A load of players running around and the sponsor logos get lost. Have one player NOT wearing the logo and the brain is stimulated big time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarrenBartonCentrePartin Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Obviously it's only meant to be him at the minute. But with the story gathering pace it would be very interesting if all our other Muslim players also took Cisse's stand. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 I don't blame players for being fed up with the hackjob-wheeler-dealer setup and lack of results and ambition but I'd much rather they just be up front. A quality lacking from top to bottom though I'm afraid. Hate football atm now like. Totally agree Every single one of them signed up and were happy to join this hackjob-wheeler-dealer setup. What's changed? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 So from an Islamic point of view, can someone tell me what the difference between Virgin Money and Wonga is please. Many people would consider Wonga to be usurious. All Western banks violate Islam by charging interest, but the excessive interest charged by Wonga may simply be more egregious. http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lpmf5nxq2h1qmvuvlo1_500.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's changed? Repeated quotes about being happy of being out of European competition from the very people who are to be motivating you, realisation that your employers are insincere, poor coaching and unfulfilling approaches to games, fan criticism, homesickness. Who knows? Could be any number of eye opening things you can only get from being within the setup. Without going on about him too much, it saw KK off and he was enthusiastic enough to start with and he is one of the few who are candid enough about that. There is clear disillusionment and lack of satisfaction within the team and setup which for all their rewards I can't blame some of the players for resenting. What I do resent, if it is the case is mercenary behaviour and insincerity from players and if he proves to be another of that ilk then it would be a real shame.

Deuce Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Wonder what the fall-out would be if we were sponsored by Arse Tickler's Faggots Fan Club instead. Depends, do they offer high-interest loans? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
prefabtoon Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 We should all stand up and refuse to wear the crap Wonga shirts, As Bolton supporters did, I would rather have no sponsorship than advertise these criminal money lenders. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 I am sure if it was someone like Man Utd or Chelsea who had Wonga as a sponsor and bid for Cisse, he would have no trouble at all pulling the shirt on. Just stinks of us being a bit shit, him not liking it and thinking of a way to fuck off. A lot of our own supporters feel his style doesn't suit us and since we are keeping Pardew as manager this might well be a good get out clause for everyone who is happy with mid-table mediocrity and long ball football. So I agree. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 I can't see any way this would end with Cisse leaving, unless someone is already ready with a big bid anyway. I think we need to keep it in perspective until we know how bad it really is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has to be a notable occasion because I agree with you for once..! I was once in Malaysia, a Muslim country in the main, and our guide informed us that a certain road was a bad spot for being stopped by Police for a breathalyser ; needless to say, I queried this by saying I thought Muslims didn't touch alcohol, whereupon he replied ; 'Yes - but we are MODERN Muslims...!'
