Toadhall Saint

A club signing like most of our signings. ;-)

All valid points Turk - my concern is that we do not have a midfielder that can see some of the runs he makes. Sometimes we are so concerned about getting the ball wide we miss the obvious - still thats football in general I suppose.

'tis a good point TBH. Didn't it count then?

This. Fairest way by miles IMHO. I've a ST but didn't go to Man City - those that did deserve the right to first option. If I've missed out on Arsenal (mate is organising the tickets) then so be it. Just because I have a ST doesn't mean I should get first option over those that have been to more aways than me.

I know but it would be nice if he/she would elaborate - I've not had a good laugh today as yet.

This - where Redknapp goes debt is sure to follow.

Care to elaborate on the horror stories and where you have heard them from?

Perhaps its just your terminology then - Yoyo strategy - prove that is the strategy being adopted and I may not need to result to personal insults. You post as if everything you say is fact yet have no proof. Content to pursue - again wheres the proof? We've only just been promoted for feck sake. Now if we get relegated (I don't think we will BTW) then get promoted then relegated - I might just start agreeing with you. Until then there is no YOYO strategy the club is content to pursue. Oh and does NC remind you of a man that would be content with that?

My post was to Alpine - what the feck has it got to do with you glenda?.

Cheers for that.

Why then has Ramirez reportedly agreed terms if it's such an impasse?

Yoyo wtf you talking about. This goes right along side your prediction of 17th you pompous little oik

A straight talking mod - yes!!

Thats what I'm thinking - to much provaracation going on if all the tweets/reports are anything to go by.

Same old same old - happens every season at the start. I know more than a few of my mates (all regulars) that are away on holiday right now.

NA knows all you have said he needs to do. Do you really think he doesn't? Feck me we were playing one of the best teams in the world so lets face it most teams and Managers know they need to improve when using City as the bench mark.

Personally I think its more about the when and how - not the price/valuation.

Pleased with that (if you can be pleased with a loss). Thought we rode our luck at times but didn't look to bad in fact I think we gave them a bit of a scare. JWP will be a name to watch methinks. Thought Fonte looked the best of the CB's but Jos wasn't that far behind (penalty aside). Kelvin worries me a bit at times. Jay Rod huffed and puffed a bit. AL looked a bit rusty but only a little. SRL quality as always. Support sounded good and NA comes through his first prem game with a few plaudits and rightly so. Bring on Wigan.

Agreed

True but would Penerol want the dosh up front or gamble on a sell on cause? Probably the halfway house you're suggesting.

Think so - either way its a lot of dosh.

Think thats not allowed in the Prem after the Tevez saga. Could be wrong tho'.

****** do you. Where were you all last season eh? In fact where have you lot ever been?? You speak of pariahs and outcasts - nothing new for you lot is it eh? Bestest fans in the world - don't make me laugh. You couldn't even sell out at nottarf krap last season. As to writing to all the bodies you mention - I've no doubt some of your deluded fans have done the same - lets not forget your thick member of parliament that went begging to the Prime Minister in PM's question time or the begging bowl put in front of your own council or the numerous messages that ended up at the FL's doors of how you were so unfairly treated and that the fit and proper test is a joke (your the only ones that this keeps happening too btw). You treat contracts with anyone with scant regard and send out a message to all other teams that quite frankly stinks. As to the PST - lol the business plan has more holes in it than a Tetley tea bag and if you cannot see that then no wonder your in the state you are. You lot need to think about humility not about pariahs and outcasts.

And the Italians know a good defender.

Cheers.
