Mole_Toonfan Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Will someone let me know when we are supposed to hate slim Mike again. September 1st. Bit unfair that, when the deadline closes on September 3rd atleast give Mike a chance to embarrass us on deadline day again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wor jackie Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Fucking hell lads chill out. We've had two bids rejected, wait for what happens next. May not get Debuchy, we might end up with Van der Wiel and he may be great. Judge our window by the time it has closed, not on August 2nd as all other major clubs have done nowt.

Dr Venkman Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 IMO it's no coincidence that we've come in with another bid after the Ba clause expired. I think we'll be back again. The only real danger with this signing is that someone else buys him, if he stays at Lille I fully expect us to get him in January, at the price we're offering now.

LFEE Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 f***ing hell lads chill out. We've had two bids rejected, wait for what happens next. May not get Debuchy, we might end up with Van der Wiel and he may be great. Judge our window by the time it has closed, not on August 2nd as all other major clubs have done nowt. I agree with the sentiment... Though you are obviously overlooking Chelsea... Hopefully next week things will start to move... As someone mentioned earlier it's more to do with the fact we have signed no automatic first team upgrade yet that is making people more anxious...

There were recent quotes from Dekka ' we will put our opening bid in. If that is rejected they know out 2nd will be very close. If that's not enough, we move on ' Or words to that effect Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlanSkÃrare Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 If we were never going to bid higher, why not make it clear and pursue other targets immediately? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Dontooner Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 MA can Fcuk off, if he doesn't try to improve this current team. Chances to improve a team with already great potential doesn't often come by. Seriously hope we win a major trophy in my lifetime. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohmelads Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Ignacio Gonzalez, Xisco, Lamine Diatta, Fabrice Pancrate, Zurab Khizanishvili, Marlon Harewood, Shefki Kuqi. All panic signings made on deadline day or after as a result of leaving the squad short, and all made under Ashley. For the sake of balance, I applaud what Ashley has done with the scouting, and our signings in the last two years have improved dramatically. Also, most of those signings were a while ago, and some would say lessons have been learned since. But old habits die hard, and Ashley sees himself as a tough and ruthless negotiator. Others would say reckless and complacent, espescially for an owner with a relegation already on his CV. My gut feeling is we will push this transfer through because we have to, because it makes too much sense. But knowing how Ashley operates, concerns are beginning to creep in. We all know Ashley is prepared to sweat it out until deadline day and leave us with Simpson or less. The above list of panic signings made by four different managers under Ashley is testament to that. I hope that lessons have been learned by Mike and Dekka and we're not bringing this back up in 3 week's time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinho lad Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 He should get someone to stake a high bet on Debuchy signing for us and then use the money from that to pay what Lille want. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Phil K Posted August 2, 2012 Share Posted August 2, 2012 Seems like Lille's prez is doing a little macho swaggering. Seems to have little to do with the deal, more a case of "Look how hard I am, they can kiss my arse" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All panic signings made on deadline day or after as a result of leaving the squad short, and all made under Ashley. Are we dreadfully short at RB? Honest question. Simpson hasn't been sold yet. Debuchy would be an improvement, no question. But we also have another year before Simpson goes (most likely) and we have a number of players who can fill in there. I expect they realize this and so aren't going crazy throwing cash at lille trying to force this through immediately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
