Convict Colony

I just visited the lounge and the topics are so boring I nearly didn't get out of there as I was nodding off.

Just realised I am probably ITK, I posted the below on 11th May, way before we got linked. 11-05-2013, 04:37 PM #490 Convict Colony Full Member Join Date May 2007 Location District 9 - Joburg Posts 429 Can't be arsed to read the previous 10 pages sorry but incase no one has given him a shout I am going for a Steve Davis upgrade that can also fill Gaston's role whilst also having good defensive discipline. He's Argentinian, he's 25yrs old, played in the champions league and is at a club that sells and he is excellent at final 3rd balls and is one of the most improved players this year in europe. He's Ever Banega. Profile - http://www.whoscored.com/Blog/y77ziy...us-Ever-Banega Most improved (Jay at 7th)- http://www.whoscored.com/Blog/yw6_q7...n-Form-in-2013

I no longer live in a convict colony

Bearsy touching women for the 1st time. Or maybe this is a fair reflection of how he is spending his time ?

Kids watch out he is behind you !!!

Mate can I just say I really enjoy your posts, very informative and balanced. No homo

Transfer season is split into 2 waves, I think we are just about to hit the 2nd half. 1st half - Fantasy land - all players, agents and clubs put out ridiculous numbers and over estimate their value and only the very rich (a la PSG/Monaco/City/Madrid) pay them to close the deals. 2nd half- Reality - After fantasy land is over the people left on the shelf realise they aren't going to get picked up in the 1st wave and start to reassess the offers tabled as they realise that the demand wasn't as they originally perceived. I suspect we have put maybe 2 to 3 solid offers on the table and have said they expire end July whilst we go away and begin pre-season. Therefore as we go into the 2nd wave the targets and clubs are reviewing these offers and begin to negotiate with the clubs as the pendulum swings back to the clubs who put the offers in as people have a fear of missing out so look to close the deals, this is where NC would have the stronger hand.

Having wasted some time surfing the valencia fans forum and reading all 31 pages of their transfer gossip I have discovered the following: http://www.valenciacf.me/thread/495/transfer-rumours-close-season-2013 1. They ****ed themselves laughing when our "bid" of 9 Million was suggested for Banega. 2. The rate Banega as the 3rd best midfielder in the La Liga behind Xavi & Iniesta when he is fit (i.e not running over himself) 3. As Dello suggests they are obsessed about someone buying Soldado for 25mil, although that seems steep for a 28yr old. 4. They need 14mil apparently to balance the books. 5. They calling Athletico Madrid, Pathetico hahah 6. They rate Gio Dos Santos !! Looking at some of the players that their club has produced part of me wishes we could pay them the 14 mill to lock in a partnership (a la Spurs/Madrid) but the 14mil gives us a 1st option clause for 5yrs or something for the players at their club and their debt gets wiped. Probably against regulations but some of the players that have played for them: Mata/Silva/Villa/Isco/Banega/Soldado/Rami/Mendiata/Claudio Lopez/Kiko Gonzalez/Aimar/Ayala

Reckon he won't move anywhere this or jan window, seems like he is set with Inter and his commercial deals so why bother moving with a world cup coming up unless you get paid $$.

Found this historical document that shows why Bearsy isn't a fan of Nuns on the Match Day threads, they ride them like horses.

or maybe when he thinks about the MS he does this ?

Is he the trucker or patrol officer ?

Over the last 2 weeks this site has become infested with To try and get us onto a new icon if we get 1 of the strikers we are associated with and Banega which combined with the current bonhomie about where we will finish I will

Are you sure it was a raft and not one of these types ?

I think our coach looks pimp, for me the signing of the day.

hahaha I am loving that, Tokes you have been quiet so I presume it is you going on all the forums as MLG talking about stadiums, the main boarders are not finding it as funny as it always is :-) maybe you should try it on a Taylor Swift fan club site.

I've seen spudders dropping rep points like a sun roof on the main board, even the worst posters have been getting them. I still am none the wiser what a "price pikey" is but I 100% agree Bearsy must be one based on the valid arguments demonstrated.

We are IOS 7 ing our team I think

100%, players are the components and the team is the product, some components don't work the way it was envisaged and reduce the quality of the overall product, thats why transfers are a dark art. Hard to understand what end product we are striving to achieve (team strengths, weaknesses) if we get a world class striker, Banega and now Vic and Dejan the spine of the time would be potentially world class, a massive upgrade on last season.

hahah saw this and made me chuckle. How NC dealt with the agent during negotiations.

you have made a valid arguement that has over ridden my intial question to understand what a price pikey is/was. Your closing statement convinced me that Bearsy is indeed a price pikey and that I will get +1 rep points for this

As a perfect poster I am somewhat ill informed on how the banning process works, is it like a tomahawk on an iraqi bunker and 1 day you are ****ed or does it mock you and say you is banned or something in italics on your screen. Do you get told how long your ban is, has anyone argued against their ban and won ??

even your twitter is getting hacked ;-) FM Saints Researcher ‏@MatthewLeGod 48s Managing #saintsfc on Football Manager 2014 is going to be a lot of fun! :-)

haven't read any of the posts but I can confirm tokes always need medical assistance if the toilet walls I read are anything to go on.

Maybe we should ask the mods for a votey thingy. The question could be (even tho i don't yet know the answer) "Is Bearsy a Price Pikey ?", live and die by the Muppet show audience I reckon.
