Of course it has. If we lost Martin, Connolly, Dickson and Gobern without replacing them, it would make us weaker - and they've made less of an impact on our team than the ones Huddersfield lost.

Surely that would be too late?

Garner, Carey, Croft gone back from loan. Sold Robinson to Millwall.

I was hoping no-one would bring it up, it's a good topic Nevermind, off to the void of General Sports it is.

Hmm...I still think Antonio could have done much better had we signed him this season.

The fact is that good managers and good players can do well regardless of whether the players were signed by the current manager. No, he didn't sign the majority of them. Does that mean he's going to sell them all and bring in his own people in the summer? I highly, highly doubt it.

Huddersfield are weaker. Everyone else is a little big stronger. We have strengthened more than anyone else.

They won't have much to say about this on footballforums I imagine. And I bet the bloody media pay for it as well.

Could be 9 points ahead of Arsenal with those games in hand...but could also be second to Norwich with their games in hand.

"Guessed"? Maybe not. But Tac-tics told us about the Lambert deal a few hours before it happened, and the Jaidi, Fonte and Dickson deals were all discussed in the press.

That's Welbeck in the picture isn't it?

Maybe a few more people will start trusting Cortese now. There is really no reason for people not to do so.

True, but the transfer window is officially over, and so I feel justified in ticking the little box.

I just know that if I did, i'd click back onto the forum to find a new thread with a link announcing his £10million move to the gunners.

Bit of an unfair comparison, we don't have millions of people clicking refresh every few seconds.

12 and a half minutes and then I can lock this ridiculous thing.

Not really a fair solution, when people are paying money for a forum that works.

Pretty sure I don't tbh, and if I do it's well hidden. I'll bring it up with the admin - blocking non-members on matchdays as a rule might be a good idea. It's worth noting though that out of the 700-odd people online at the mo, only 100 are not signed up.

There have been a few minor updates as well as the major one (upgrade to Vbulletin) since the fee was brought in. In all honesty i'm just speculating here - I don't really have a clue exactly what the money gets spent on. Anyone remember what the record amount of people online at once was? It peaked at around 800 about an hour ago.

Completely agree to be honest. I think the £5 fees should all be kept back to spend on a more powerful server.

Nope, I have genuinely never seen anyone mention it. Until you find posts proving your point there's not really any point continuing this discussion.

"Midfielder makes Prem switch", I shat myself.

I know most people have just dismissed it out of hand, and I would of thought it was b*llocks too, but I heard the same a little while ago. Still not sure I believe he's leaving - after the Chamberlain saga and managing to keep hold of him, it would be retarded to then get rid of the focal point of our attack.

I have honestly never seen anyone excuse a defeat with "this is Pardews team, not Adkins".

Adkins said that no-one was in talks about Chamberlain and that he would be on the coach to Exeter tomorrow
