Test match is on, which progresses at the pace akin to developments on this thread. So work, cricket on in the background, glance at cricket/this thread, nothing happening, work, glance at cricket/thread, nothing happening, work, etc

Not sure what club you are talking about, but if it is Saints, then it is more bollicks from you. http://www.oddschecker.com/football/english/premier-league/relegation

So let me get this right. Everton were going to have £100m to spend + Stones + Lukaku = c£200m, and CL qualification a near certainty. Was that what we were told?

Funny... They're saying he's just what they need. Leader etc. Wonder what the £50m Stones was as they seem to think that they are now stronger.

Which is sort of my point. People are saying they are underwhelmed and want us to splash the cash and sign someone exciting. We don't do that sort of thing - maybe we will in the future, but not since Kevin Keegan have we really pulled off a coup.

Who was the last signing we made that got your whelm from being under to over? I mean a signing that got you thinking "**** me that's a good one". That's not to say that the signings we have made have been received badly, not least because I know how the club tends to work and I greatly look forward to how they do. This season it is Redmond that interests me the most. But back to the question, for me, maybe Osvaldo came closest to the "**** me" signing, and we know how that worked out.

Is this Saint Charlie's article?? http://www.sportinglife.com/football/news/article/165/10529211/premier-league-betting-tips-ante-post-201-17-relegation-preview

What am I going to do with this positivity????

Mane seems to be 34.5 rising by 4 depending on team results which I expect to be CL qualification. So not far off 40.

I think I am 100% as well

Isn't Walsh doing that job?

I imagine that other clubs like dealing with us given that we don't have a chairman who tells his son everything that then immediately gets posted on twitter.

it's bad as it is, and even worse in cup games. Palace's FA Cup visit took the **** IMO.

I'd be happy with a £190 rebate on my ST.

So Everton selling their best player(s) is obviously different to us selling ours.

IF, the might be a big IF, he wants coaching afterwards, then moving to Everton would harm his chances with us. But maybe he could do a coaching job in Portugal, so where he finishes his career is irrelevant. If he wanted money, then I am sure China would take him.

City seem to have listed Stones in their Champ League squad!! Edit - link added - http://backpagefootball.com/pic-uefa-list-john-sotnes-manchester-citys-champions-league-squad/110651/

I read somewhere that MUFC will make £40m from signing Pogba. Didn't read the article about how they were exactly going to make this money, but if true, then it puts the transfer fee into a slightly different perspective.

Everton fans don't seem overly excited by Bolasie rumours: https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/bolaise.90516/

wasn't it 2 players by 9th August?

already mentioned on another thread, and really, someones marital problems really isn't anyone's business. Trash paper (copying from the Sun) trawling the gutter.

Bony for £13m might be interesting
