more than anything it was his arrogance over not accepting what was going on around him. Fans forum aside, we have heard nothing in the last couple of years and yet before that he was fairly regularly talking himself up to the press and how great he was running the club. Cannot imagine for one moment Cortese coming back, especially as KL still has a stake, so that is not going to happen and the club is a different model now (unfortunately) and there is no way Cortese is going to work under those financial constrictions. What price for Paul Muitchell as our new DoF?

don't think anyone is saying what you are saying, not trying or breach of contract.... The actual point is that here is a man with a talent (not enough for this league perhaps) and a relatively short career, who is seemingly happy to do nothing for the next four years because he does not want to lose any of 70K per week. What world have these people been born into that they see 40K a week as 'a pay drop'? You are correct, is is our fault and no one is trying to force him out, I was suggesting that it takes a better person to try again somewhere else because they love playing football, even if 40K a week might be a struggle.

hes the best penalty taker we have

Ok, I'll ask... which one has the best porn channels?

But what's your take on whether he should stay then Steve? As Dusic seems to suggest, he should exercise that right and we are wrong to dismiss his poor attitude to finding a replacement or loan club.

to be fair, Ray Charles in goal was never going to work out.

Not sure they were necessarily any worse, maybe not better granted though KD obviously pivotal to our previous success.

1. Definitely, err, Ian Andrews and I dunno, paul jones maybe are worse. Gazza was obviously at the time but he was only back up keeper. Let me know the long list of worse keepers that you have in mind. 2. As I said Dusic, if he went on loan then maybe he would have been on full whack anyway. Or, as is the scurge of modern day football, a player thinks that he really needs 70k per week to live and 35/40 will push him below the breadline. He is losing any opportunity of resurrecting his career by disappearing into nomansland at SFC. The writing was on the wall when we signed Gunn and instead of doing a Joe hart, he has done a Winston Bogarde.

mate, you seem to have confused FF with Matt Le Tissier or Rickie Lambert, this is one of the worse goalkeepers that we have had, that we are talking about. In answer to to your questions, I don't know the clubs but I do know that there were plenty that he turned down, here and abroad. A) YES b) YES thats if he had anything about him. Would you struggle to take a pay cut from say 70 to 40k per week, PER WEEK!! Come on, are you for real? besides if he went on loan then he wouldn't even take a cut anyway but even then he still wouldn't go. The bloke is a parasite and the worse kind of player, doesn't care about playing football, just thinks what an easy life picking up the money for doing nowt. And yes, you are correct, it is that idiot or idiots in charge that gave him the money. But you know why do you? Because they were just trying to hike up the sale value and it's massively backfired because he's crap. I saw it for the first time when he let Willian's goal in at the bridge back three years ago in a 1-1 draw, failed to get off his line and let's be honest, the likes of Lovren, Fonte, Toby, VVD, Victor and Spider-Man have been massive protection. Once they went he was exposed for the bang average keeper that he is.

don't reckon a team is going to need anywhere near 40 points to stay up this year, wont be surprised to see 17th on 33 or 34 points.

there were plenty in the UK mate, trust me in that. Not to the PL level perhaps but options nonetheless. Im afraid you have lost a lot of credibility when you start quoting Wreck It Ralph.

that's working out well

Its called sarcasm mate.

Forster is on what, 70k per week. Deservedly dropped and won't move on loan to whole host of clubs that want him, why do you think he has been frozen out completely? If he had anything about him he would have moved to prove his doubters wrong but money came first cause he needs every penny of that wage he is on. No sympathy whatsoever. Davis andnYoshida are not really good enough but then the players in the first team are not either, to be fair, I'd rather have Yoshi and SD over Hoedt and Rom.

only if they are the right opinions

:lol::lol:

Don’t renew your sky and BT mate. It’s not the clubs it the tv. You can **** and moan all you like but you still pay your subs and nothing will change. It’s your fault pal (assuming you are customer)

Changes in the defence which meant he was more exposed and found out. He did a good job for us, Jesus, you couldn't make it up

not sure he was ever 'great', When you have the defenders and holding midfielders we had and then go the current crop, well, you are going be shot at a lot more.

when are we marching?

Never thought I'd say this, but I'd like to hear more of what Wadesmith has to say

Regardless of why we finished 8th or 6th because Chelsea and Liverpool were rocking etc... someone just put up the points tally for each season (I cant be arsed). It is amazing what a league table will tell you year on year. Its not rocket science. ive done it now.

Dont know where you get this from? if anything, certainly before a game he can be too bias towards saints winning. And he's hardly had much to be positive about in the last two years.

he must be willing to pay a lot of money for this, he sounds desperate.
