  1. You can only judge by the league you're in. We can second in the league on a couple of occasions, and didn't we also finish fairly high under Strachan?
  2. 'Hasn't had a chance'? He won't get one either until he knuckles down and gets on with his job.
  3. The net amount available to spend us a bit reduced on that. There are 10% agents' fees on top of the purchases and no matter how hard the club tries I would expect some Corporation Tax to be liable because they won't be able to hide all the profits.
  4. To those who wish to apologise, that's very magnanimous of you, you have my respect for what little it's worth. To those who feel that they have no need to apologise, that's fine by me too, but please bear it in mind as you get older and hopefully wiser that things aren't always what they seem at first.
  5. None of it of any importance.
  6. We're in North Denmark for a few days break. I like international weeks because it gives me a chance to get away without missing any home games
  7. At the moment it feels like mine
  8. Four years from deadline day August 2012, so one more year when he returns next summer
  9. As I've posted before, I think there are obscure accountancy reasons for preferring loans to outright purchase, it's a bit like buying your car on a lease instead of paying cash.
  10. I never though I'd see the day when we were throwing these sorts of figures around. Don't forget that the buying club usually pays the agent's fees too so you can add another 10% to these buying costs.
  11. Too soon to tell. We've chucked in our stack of cards and had a re-deal. Let's see if this lot turns out better. I have a sneaky feeling that the shake up is what the club needed but I expect a few more ups and downs before we get a settled team. Please to see that we haven't lost any more regulars (apparently) but a little disappointed with the loss of Gastón. It'll be interesting to see how he does for Hull.
  12. Did we pinch him fromSpuds? http://metro.co.uk/2014/09/01/tottenham-set-to-sign-sadio-mane-as-agent-arrives-in-england-ahead-of-11-8m-transfer-4852728/
  13. Unlikely. Hull were knocked out last week.
  14. Gloating is so undignified, I'd rather we didn't. Unless your name's Gloatboy of course.
  15. Do they count as a 'mid-table club? I saw a reference to a £4m loan fee required for him.
  16. Or not Toe-bee? That is the question.
  17. That's the idea. They run around a lot shaking up a settled defence thus creating opportunities for others,
  18. Page 65 of the Mail this morning: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2739213/Ronald-Koeman-targets-Champions-League-Southampton-three-years-West-Ham-win.html
  19. No, he probably found out it was a Ryanair flight to London landing in Belfast
  20. Euros, not pounds, so it's even less. A mere pittance
  21. Are you sure it was an eel?
  22. That's the bit where the sun shines
  23. 'Bint' is an Arabic word, and 'one complete knob' could be translated as 'mass willy' so don't be too sure.
  24. At least if we get him he won't score a match-winning goal against us again.
