Highly unlikely In the sense that there are already millions there, you think refugees did this?

which has absolutely nothing to do with what happened last night, get a bit more clued up please.

Mike was a true fan, decent guy too. got a lot of unjust stick from some of the clowns on here because the TV or radio asked him for an opinion. though I had to laugh when he was on Talksport once and started moaning about Cortese's car parking charges and they said along the lines of "Jesus mate, look where you have come over the last two or three years and you moan about car park charges" and then they cut him off. Good old Mike, always did have something to say

you are so right Turkey Boy and fancy having the audacity to deliver to her a club that her old man had bought for £13m and that was now (then) worth in excess of £100m, imagine if he'd got the cladding right first time round.

As only as just about every other PL chairman writes out the cheques for their flops too, welcome to football pal. Remind me how much we paid for Rory Delap or Alan McLoughlin. Or Rudi Scatel?

You're right; having a reasoned debate with someone who ridicules someone's height is pointless.

exactly, its not a good formula to use international honours as a benchmark.

yes and such an elaborate response from you, but then reasoned debate is not one of your strong points is it?

on his criteria, no, because Sweden havent won anything. I dont think its about winning something at every level otherwise are we saying George Best wasnt world class, or Gareth Bale?

indeed, so clearly she was chomping at the bit to stop him spending the money despite the relative success that he had achieved. I still wonder what her long term plan is and it wouldnt surprise me to see her sell out at some point, though at least we are a very attractive proposition for someone now, I guess we have to worry about the likes of the Ray Ransoms and Michael Wildes of this world, back to the Paul Allen's.

you're right, completely forgot about City (and Sanchez), maybe Joe Hart then, Yaya (perhaps not now) as well? Though i cant believe you can count Ozil and discount Coutinho.

I'm neither glad he left or disappointed that he is not here. Clearly the club has moved in a different direction which is perhaps not as ambitious short term but more stable (though the owner is worth a reported £4 Billion, so it would take a hell of a lot to make us unstable, basically her walking out) long term. Its great to see the likes of Matt back at the club but at the same time all we ever heard was his and Franny's side of the story, Cortese always kept a dignified silence on the matter, so who knows the truth? I think Cortese would have got us into the top four but obviously it wasn't his money. At the same time, if Kat was signing it off then so what? Clearly she didn't want to do that any longer (or had the power to pull the rug out from beneath him) and despite early indications that she was in for a fire sale, that doesn't seem to be the case. But I still think that we were motoring somewhere under Cortese and now we are just plain sailing, fine while the wind is with us.

like. Anyone would think we all get a share of the bloody money. On another note, you seriously don't think Mane is world class do you? I understand some on here thought that 'whathisname' that was on loan last season was world class, which was frankly a joke, and though clearly Mane is so much better than him, world class? World Class = being able to get in any team in the world, club and country. Hard pressed to think of any playing in this country presently tbh, maybe the Chelsea keeper Cortoius (i know that is the wrong spelling), Courtinio perhaps (but needs to show a bit more), struggling really, Steven Davis anyone?

Good answer mate, clearly the question was aimed at the guy who said "I'm glad he left", just wanted him to say why, because some people on here just have a personal vendetta based on his height or previous links to jobs, pathetic really, they just keep playing the same boring, monotonous tune over and over again. I would also defend his 'football' legacy, he got us to the PL and he had a certain vision, in particular about playing the kids, i think that was a very proactive agenda and it is one of the things that seems to be lost presently and that's a shame, but hey, its not all bad is it.

why, what went wrong under Cortese?

you two are so predictable, or is it one?

What else would he say? Football people don't mean half the crap they talk about, it's all spin and sound bites.

Nicola Cortese - came, saw and conquered

lol

The worst diversion ever. Did anyone carry on past the Milton Park thing to catch the A34 down the road, thinking it was straightforward diversion? If I had known it was via Wantage then I would have gone via Reading. Absolute joke! Still not entirely sure what the actual diversion route was from the Didcot roundabout.

Maybe the people you criticise so much can actually spell awful

My kid actually, and he said he was going to ask this when we were driving to SMS. I said it wasn't really the sort of questions that they would be looking for but he asked it anyway, got a good laugh and to be fair to Ron he answered by naming the two captains! To be fair, it turned out to be a more interesting question than a lot if the others. Thougt Ralph was just so ****ing corporate, Ron didn't want to be there and Les was probably wishing Cortese was still around so he didn't have to answer to a room of people like me..

What is the criteria for asking questions then? I thought previously that they were submitted beforehand, a bit like Question Time , Adam Blackmore saying "and our next question is from someone called Alpine Saint...." but is going to be a hands in the air, "please sir" session. So who is going by the way? Be good to know that people like 9.3 are in the room, personally will be looking out for Avenue Saint, Whelk and obviously Turkey Boy/CB Fry, who will be either the same person in their Stone Island sweater and Burberry cap or perhaps just joined at the hip. I'll be coming disguised as a Syrian refugee if anyone wants a free hit.

when did we sign Raheem, is he injured?
