'Skates looking forward to Modest Future' Well, considering their fanbase, stadium and infrastructure it surely should come very naturally to them.

Indeed, a truly terrifying prospect for their premier league opponents. Has Eugen Bopp signed yet too? Also, Belhadj and Utaka on their way. So that will leave Kanu and Nugent up front? Wow

Do love that despite this 'takeover,' they are still described as cash strapped.

It couldn't happen to nicer bunch of narrow minded, dellusional inbreds.

Indeed. It just seems far too good to be true.

Do like that.

A team that secured automatic qualification to the Europa League no less.

Hang on, 3-0!? I don't know how to feel right now.....

I would credit him as saving the club from oblivion. He has been the only person involved pre-Leibherr who actually put HIS money where his mouth and heart is. Regardless of his merits as a chairman he deserves everyone's gratitude.

Regardless of their intention they set us back by a month in terms of preperations for this season. Therefore whichever way you look at it, in our current position they damaged us.

That is an insult to Jermaine Wright. #shudders# Incidentally, he's available on a free you know.

labour/tories/whoever out!

Hope McLaren are further up the front. I have heard rumblings of their relationship souring with Mercedes, so it has to be good for them. (Having said that, when someone owns 40% of you, just how bad can a fall out be?)

Why do I find it a relief that we have a manager who wants players who will 'perform' every week..... am I that deprived of competance!?

I would be impressed.... just to clarify.

He would be absolutely I-*******-deal.

;)Not this again.....

Jakobsson was ok, but so far short of the player he needed to replace that his signing was rendered futile. Couldn't believe that we had signed the same Callum Davenport who I had seen playing superbly for Coventry.

I bet it's the only film franchise in history where the 4th film is the best one. Glad the last film was made though, the thought of finishing it all with Rocky V makes me shudder.

I'll echo Risk. Used to have some epic games with my old housemates. Lager + Risk + Competitive Housemates = Outstanding.

Just for you mate, i'll try. I've become so cynical since I reached my mid twenties.

Would like to see the team line up like this: GK: Kelvin DR: Murty DL: Harding DC: Perry DC: Thomas MR: Thompson ML: Mills MC: Wotton MC: Schneiderlin S: Lallana S: John Still weak in the centre of the park, but as good a team as any right now. I do like the look of the back 4...

Was quite excited back in 03/04 and 06/07. This however is different, very different. I'm just waiting for something to go wrong!

Aiming high!
