Tancredi Palmeri @tancredipalmeri · Jun 1 Southampton are negotiating with Torino the transfer out of Gaston Ramirez, according to Sky Italy. Torino offering loan + option to buy

He's not. He wasn't one of Cortese favorites

Permission for bottom lip to quiver

Isn't he missing some tattoos

Moyes interview on the BBC today, says he has had some exciting job offers, but is going to take some time off from the game and just watch football around the world.

I suspect you are right with a "fudged" solution, but it might be enough to see off Blatter. That might just be wishful thinking, but there will be blood spilt if it is proven and blatter will be in the firing line. The interesting thing in all of this is the FBI's involvement and their motives - I am not complaining at all very glad to have them on board, but why?

I don't think you really get football do you Delldays/Jamie/Bret/Batman

Florida Martin, I know you were or are in a journalist / writer / or something to do with the press. I have also seen you make this comment before. Perhaps I am missing the point - But I find it bizarre. If I read something from Adam Blackmore (As an example) it would for me carry far more weight than if I read something from Alex Goring Cook. Why that should be the case is some Journalists, just write utter rubbish, some just regurgitate stories other Journalists have uncovered and some actually have genuine contacts and write articles based on what they have found out. Adam Blackmore has access and contacts to our players that 99% of other journalists don't. That's why it is the case more than anyone else.

Disappointing that it has come from Balckmore, because that means it is likely to be true

LOl you thick ****

Yes - I do

Due to a bizarre meeting in New York, I was for the first time ITK .....with regard to Lamberts transfer to West Ham. Apparently he was gutted and didn't understand why the club wanted to sell him, but if he wasn't wanted- then he would go. It would also provide a healthy pay day (% of transfer fee). The fee was 6 million( I suspect that was the total one with all the add ons and the Liverpool deal is very similar. That was under Cortese and it was the new board that ripped the deal up. For what ever reason (I am guessing Rickie just couldn't turn it down and we have rewarded him for everything he has done) the deal is now right for us and we move on. He would have been used less this coming season that the one just passed and judgements should be saved to see who he is replaced with. Fantastic servant and footballer.

That the firebrigade had been anticipating it falling for some and advising the press agencies - Reutuers then informed everyone including the BBC that it already happened - when it hadn't ( That was my take on it)

I owe John an apology. I got so wrapped up in the no planes theory and wrongly assumed we were talking about one of the twin towers. One nil John - Can we go back to the no planes hitting either of the twin towers

John my inability to prove what was shown live on TV and has thousands of witnesses is my bad and I concede defeat, However - That brings options 4 through 6 into play (Possibly not your finest post given they support your theory). So now we have narrowed it down - Which one is it to be and can you talk us through why this is the correct conspiracy theory as opposed to all the others? I will wait for your response with eagerness.

Good question and the answer is easy; To start the season with a stronger squad than we finished last season with. Perfectly achievable in my opinion, although whether the new manager could get the same out of any new squad as MP could have, remains to be seen. I think most, if not all of us recognise his loss as a significant blow. But assuming we lose; Shaw, Lallana Lambert and possibly one or two others (I don't think we will sell Lovern) then the money would allow us to be stronger; Can we get an equal or better player for Shaw for less than 30 million - Of course we ******* can. They might be at the end of their career, or a completely different type of full back, but what we are selling in Shaw is his potential and age and whilst very good is not the finished article yet - We all know he will be but for next season he is entirely replaceable at a fraction of 30 million. Lallana will be more difficult to replace and player for player, we probably won't get close, but I suspect we will change our shape and system, with a different type of player. That said we might just gamble on a foreigner of the same ilk. will be the hardest one to replace and the biggest lost - That shirt number will need to deliver 9 goals and 8 assists just to match Lallana. Perhaps worth pointing out that lallana finshed very few matches - We played a significant amount of game time without it, so there's nothing new to us about playing without him. Lambert - We tried to sell him once before and was unlikely to ever feature in as many games next season as he did this. If the 4 million is correct then we are going to need a significant top up from the other player sales to get close to a 15 goal a season striker. I think a lot of our activity in terms of purchasing will be based on what the new guy wants to do with Osvaldo and Gaston. They both represent significant amounts of money and neither would be missed from the squad if they left. They are both class players - can the new guy get them firing -Who knows. Then we need (IMO) a new centre half, new goalie and one if not two new strikers (Over and above Lamberts replacement) depending on our Italian friend. If Osvaldo and Gaston leave, plus Shaw, Lallana, Lambert and an other that's somewhere close to 80 million in transfer fees. If we get half of that to reinvest, we can compete and perhaps even be stronger (As long as AN other isn't Lovern or Morgan)

Can you just update us on what theory we should be working on. There have been so many; 1) Planes were loaded with (On the wings I seem to remember) with explosives 2) The planes detonated explosives that had been pre packed into the world trade centre 3) The planes were military planes not commercial airliners 4) The planes were in fact missiles. 5) There were no planes - what was seen were holograms 6) There were no planes - the buildings were destroyed in whatever way and the filmed footage edited to include the planes that didn't exist.

But you have already reached your conclusion, by explaining why the planes were necessary................

Bu the new board did turn it down :lol:

Thank you - I heard all the interviews and never once heard this. s Clarke - Over to you. All the interviews are out there. Please direct us in the right place (voices in your head don't count)

LOL.....apart from Chamberlain and yeah.....LAMBERT

Yeah and five minutes later we are trying to sell him to west ham

That doesn't really hang together when it was the new board that ripped up the deal for Lambert to West Ham in January that Cortese had arranged and sanctioned.

Happy to stay until the big bucks came in. 18 year old footballers, do not give up the chance to quadruple their wages, get a % of a huge sell on fee and get to play for Man utd. You are in cloud kooko land.
