hypochondriac

Isn't that what the entire thread has been about? The UK calling out Islamic terrorism for what it is and admitting we have a problem with it would be a start.

Every time some Islamic nutter does something like this, it just makes the apologists look more ridiculous. Look how many of these attacks there have been over the last few years. It's just shocking.

Indeed. Nothing to do with Islam.

Being treated as a terrorist incident. Disgusting.

I doubt she has lost interest. I expect the plan was always to get us as far as she could take us with minimal outlay on her part. She probably understands that our current selling strategy is fairly unsustainable in the long term and is probably looking for a return on her investment as well as securing our future in memory of her father (I imagine that academy building named in his honour would represent an emotional tie still if nothing else.) I hope if we do sell to these guys that she has undertaken rigorous due diligence and received commitments in order to get us funded to a greater degree than we are being funded at the moment, otherwise what would be the point?

More than anything else, they don't appear to have an awful lot of cash which is normally a good indicator of intentions. Then you have the Chinese and the culture clash and there seems quite a lot of scope for things to go pear shaped.

This Lander Sports outfit seems pretty dodgy. If we are changing owners then I'd rather swap for another benevolent billionaire.

We aren't going down and with our best striker now injured and nothing left to play for, I've lost interest somewhat. I see no reason why we can't just play Stephens if we think that's best for him to gain some experience. It's not going to change much at this stage of the season.

Well it's called "Comic" relief so the clue is in the title really.

I thought we played well. After moaning at Puel about the poor results and our incredibly boring style of play he seems to have turned that around. We are now playing a consistent team which makes a huge difference. I'm still miffed about how we bombed out of Europe but our recent performances and cup final have taken the edge off.

It absolutely does not. I reckon we will keep him for one more season but not a chance does an injury prevent his transfer.

Well he wasn't overrated. Under poch he was statistically one of the best midfielders in the world.

There's always Won.

If paying my TV license allows things like planet earth to exist then I consider it a price worth paying.

He didn't even read it did he...

[emoji23] oh dear oh dear you've made yourself look a right wally...

Not sure I can write big Sam off with his stellar record of avoiding relegation. I reckon it could be Leicester, Sunderland and one of Bournemouth or boro.

Turkish was clearly joking. Ffs some of the people on here...

Sounds like it's just the work application taking a while

Apparently I'm on ignore now so once soggy flounces off again I'll be hopeful of a return to civility. Why has this bloke not signed yet? Any idea how long work permit applications take?

Bore off soggy. You weren't even mentioned by me until you started replying to something that was nothing to do with you. Now run off the forum again so we can get back to talking about this player rather than the tripe you seem intent on continuing

Crap. It probably won't make it to Friday...

That's the 5th time you have mentioned that. Anyone would think you were trying to get attention...

I don't hate anyone but he is very irritating when he doesn't post anything at all about the team, just continually sniping at other posters. I know some posters can be negative but I can handle a different opinion as long as we are discussing the football and the team. I don't see the point in existing if almost all your posts are just snide comments about other posters.
