  1. Oh dear. Hell hath no fury like an old woman who wasted his money on an airplane banner.

    Question

    I agree. I dont know what went on with Pearson. I was just responding to Arizona's point that he didnt believe the new duo were cheaper to employ.

    Question

    Yes I reckon Pearson was on way more at Newcastle than we are paying JP and Wotte combined. Prem wages at all levels are ridiculous. Four years ago Souness was earning £1.5m pa as Newcastle manager. Its easy to imagine Pearson was on c£450,000 as Assistant Manager and he would have wanted something similar here. By contrast JP bought himself out of his contract for £60,000 - indicating he may have been on as little as £60,000 at Helmond. I reckon JP and Wotte on are on something like £250,000pa combined at Saints.

    Question

    You can say "There is no way Newcastle's assistant manager was one more than the combined wage of Wotte and Poortvliet". Doesn't mean it's true though. In fact, lets be honest, it isn't.
  5. What with Baji?
  6. Have you not seen the Kumars going for an English? Lighten up, dont cry to your naan. .
  7. Why is it so dark in her house and why has she got her coat on. These are important questions.
  8. Yes. Unbalanced load.
  9. JP has done extremely well with the resources he has. This is a young and very inexperienced team, most of whom neither GB or NP would play. The fact that JP has had to play them and they havent been ripped apart shows well on him. They will improve.
  10. She is a city deal broker who used his annual bonus to go to Morrocco for trans-gender surgery. The plane left from Eastleigh.
  11. Would be interesting to see a 'balance sheet' for the academy - how much it has cost to run over the years against the value of the players it has produced.
  12. GP had already announced his intention to return to work in France when he was diagnosed with cancer. Lowe renewed his contract so that GP wouldnt have to worry about where the next penny was coming from whilst he was fighting the disease. GP is very grateful to the club and to RL and IMO would do anything he could to help us.
  13. The thing is that the value to Sky of the worldwide syndication rights continues to increase. More and more countries are watching live prem games and paying for the priviledge even as English fans get disenchanted with the whole charade. We could end up with prem games being shown live to 500m people worldwide - but in half empty stadiums. What happens then? Do some clubs start to relocate becoming Abu Dhabi Everton and Kuala Lumpur Pompey (not all bad then) or do the worldwide viewers wonder if the product is not so great after all if the locals cant even be arsed to go.
  14. 'admin' and 'password' doesnt work. Tried that the other week.
  15. Are we sure he's a CB? Just says defender on their website.
  16. Thats true . I'd forgotten that.
  17. Wonder why we didnt narrow it and squeeze a few more seats in.
  18. Dunno. hth
  19. Dang that Shilph Shetty.
  20. ...to someone with the money.
  21. Lets whack another 1,000 posts on each and get this to the top.
  22. We should ask for more than that. Last owner paid £48m to terminate her contract.

    Romain Gasmi

    Sure - I'm not saying he's a trouble maker. Lots of people have jobs where they dont 'fit' but do very well elsewhere.

    Romain Gasmi

    Loans window doesnt close until the end of September (I think).

    Romain Gasmi

    Schneiderlin supposedly had 'attitude' problems there too - which were nothing more than wanting to play. Gasmi, if it happens, appears to be a loan with an option to buy. He appears to be a very good player, but if we have any problems we can just send him back.
