Yep, it's worked really well for Coventry.

A radio station and insurance company could be a money spinner, yes?

The announcement must be imminent, you said almost a year ago you expected it soon and we couldn't do it in 2015 due to the Rugby World Cup. You said tonight Cortese isn't the sort of bloke to wait 5 years. How close are we to 'soon'? It must be very soon given all that.

Can't your mates mate who told you Adam Johnson is on £125k a week at Sunderland do some digging for you? -

Have a loan = not being free of debt is not a technicality! This thread isn't going well for you is it, as usual. -

Well if we've got a loan we aren't debt free are we!! -
Are we any closer to the date that you implied was 'soon' when you said in your thread last year what you expected to see happen soon?

Who wrote them off? I said that for £35m worth of players I'd expect one or two of them to be amongst our best players this season, i expected them to perform relatively quickly, not wait a couple of years for them to show their ability. The players who were already here are. It's simple, you even agreed with it above when you said bait how great Cork, Scniderlin, Lambert and Shaw have been! -

Absolutely no one has said we didn't have the money, no one. you made that bit up as you're clearly struggling. -

Because he was a priority signing, that is the whole point which you aren't grasping. -

Saying people think we didn't have the money to buy Rodriguez and a centre back. Completely made up as no one has said that. -

We prioritised other areas yes, I believe we did. we left signing a centre half until the last day of the window when the only fit ones we had were Fonte and Hooliveld. what does that tell you? And we didn't just have one striker, we have Mayuka, we also had Sharp. -

Making things up now I see. Good one. -

Turkish replied to Barry Sanchez's topic in The Saints
Yes thats exactly the point. you really arent very bright are you. We should have concentrated on areas that needed strengthening. As said above, we spent £2m on a central defender, brought a goalkeeper from the 3rd division and left this area so weak we needed a panic buy in Boruc and didn't buy a wide player or left back that we needed at all. -

Which is exactly my point, we've spent £7m on a player who wasn't better than the one who was already in the position he plays in. Do you think that is sensible for a newly promoted team looking to establish themselves to do? £25m spent on players who have arguably had minimal impact in this crucial season. It's not difficult to grasp is it, bless you. -

What on earth are you going on about now? -

So we have another example of an expensive signing not being better than a player already here. I'm glad you are starting to come round, god knows its taken a while. -

He isn't though. So it's not relevant. -

Turkish replied to Barry Sanchez's topic in The Saints
Yes, here. You said he'd be a bargain and the £7m would be one of our best ever bits of business. It's impossible for him not to be isn't it. He won't be another David Nugent, it's impossible. -

So you agree that £25m has been spent on players that haven't really performed to their values so far then? -

Since when has Jarvis been a Saints player? I was talking about Rodriguez and your insistence that he was bound to be a success and its impossible for him to fail. What was that about only reading what you want to? -
Isn't it just. MLG insistent that Cortese is in a hurry to get this done, in fact here we are almost a year on from the golden thread about what he expects to see happen soon and despite this mad rush to start all sorts of building work we are only a few pretty pictures closer to it. It seems Cortese is the sort of guy who is prepared to wait Afterall.

Of course they will because like all saints signings he is guaranteed to improve, nailed on. There is no possible way on earth he wouldn't. It is impossible for him to be a Francis Jeffers or David Nugent.
