  1. Interesting turn of phrase.
  2. Hard to keep up but one of the Bologna journos that has been quoted on twitter has said we havent agreed to Bologna demand of 10m euros up front with 5 across remainder of the year - thats a bit of a backtrack from the original position. He confirmed the price has already reduced during negotiations.
  3. Clearly Cortese has shown an abhorrent lack of awareness in completing this deal. Send him on a Prince II course - the guy is hopeless at identifying risk in transfer deals.
  4. He has just found out that Cortese has messed up the Ramirez deal.
  5. He outshone Messi on Saturday. Probably wouldn't cope with Stoke though, or West Hoof. Shame we fannied about and let Brian Howard through our fingers this summer.
  6. Hope he is right, it could be an explanation. Remember though, that his story is printed today in the Mirror, so he would want it to happpen otherwise he also looks silly.
  7. A legacy of the Burley years.
  8. I see your point, but remember the Italian tweets are from Bologna insiders. The media will report whatever they tell them...
  9. If you want to blame anyone then Guly could have worked harder to get it done. Lazy sod.
  10. I just said it!
  11. Decent prospect this lad, no Luke Shaw though
  12. Big Sam said WHU have failed with 95% of their transfer targets this summer....so have we Didn't want to say it before but Cortese out, bring back Guy Askham.
  13. Yep, De Rossi staying at Roma, not joining Man City.
  14. I won't cry myself to sleep if we dont sign Ramirez because I will have already leapt from the cliffs of Kimmeridge - despairing at Cortese attempts to F**k up yet another deal
  15. I will stick my neck on the line - I reckon Ramirez will sign, but not for another few days - it will go quiet and then we will go back and move to an agreement. As Morph would say, All IMHO of course.
  16. Rehash of what we have seen.
  17. Bologna journalist saying that the issue with the full payment v installments is that Bologna sold a player to Espanyol of couple of years ago and didnt receive the second installement because Espanyol sold the player to Roma and just didn't pay Bologna what they had agreed. Think we will somehow have to pay more upfront or convince Bolgna we are trustworthy.
  18. Talks still ongoing to reach an agreement - about right.
  19. Glasgow is a top class WUM, the leader of the Saints Web kingdom of WUMs.
  20. No, Bassong was good for Newcastle too.
  21. And with them asking for the full price within 1 year that will put a lot of top clubs off as its not the way transfers are usually structured. Will be interesting to see if a deal can be agreed.
  22. The player wants to leave which these days counts for a lot.
  23. He plays well against Pterborough but they aren't in the Prem this season.
  24. On the twitter of one of the guys giving updates on Ramirez. Said its from an Italian paper that has very good links to the player - not someone I know a lot about personally? its virtually unheard of for any deal to be made up of a fee paid entirely within 1 year - not suprised we havent agreed to that...no other club would.
