    That's a shame. I think he will be a really good player.

    Is he injured? Anyone know wahgwan?
  3. You're not that keen then?
  4. This is true.
  5. I disagree. We can still be a platform club for players but what we can't allow is players to sign a six year contract one summer then moan because they can't leave the next. We also can't back down having submitted a complaint about Liverpool. It would be a compete shambles.
  6. We can, can we? What's our cause of action?
  7. Local substation is probably a matter for the distribution company rather than the National Grid. Not that it matters, but I'm feeling pedantic.
  8. The £23million throw-in.
  9. We cannot sell him to Liverpool unless the price is astronomic (ie. £85mill +). It will make the club look utterly pathetic, having complained about them tapping him up. Long-term it would be an awful move and sends all the wrong signals. I've got no problem players joining us with a view to moving on after a couple of successful seasons. Experience tends to support the contention that this is a better model than that employed by a number of other PL clubs. What we do need to do though, is retain some control over when we let those players go and we can't do that if we make public complaints then cave-in anyway.
  10. I think our priorities should be a mobile striker with a decent touch and a midfielder to complement Romeu. STRIKER I would release Long (unreliable) and Gallagher (I think he's got promise but I'm being told I have to release two players and if I release Austin I'm pretty short on goal-scorers if the new guy doesn't work out. Gabbi obviously is not up for release. Sign: Iheanacho MIDFIELD Release Reed and Clasie. I actually quite like both of them and I thought Clasie should have played more last season but they don't really complement Romeu, Davis and JWP. Romeu obviously needs to be kept and Davis is valuable to the squad. JWP has a higher potential than either of them. Sign: Ramires (persuade him that China is ****e).
  11. Everton's finances are far more interesting than ours.... https://www.theguardian.com/football/2016/dec/29/vibrac-jg-funding-riverdance-everton-shadow-investor-mystery
  12. Yes, it would be too far fetched. There was no "Virgin Island holding co". There was a company in BVI called Vibrac, which lent money to a number of English clubs, including us. No one knows who owns it, so it could be Kat, but that would seem more than a little unlikely.
  13. "Strike" is a complete misnomer anyway. He has no right to "strike".
  14. She could just fast forward a few days when she's about to go on the blob as well. Time travel and that.
  15. Couldn't get in the Palace team last year, could he? Can't see it, unless Long or Austin is moving on.
  16. What's their away stadium like?
  17. Fackin sideways, fackin **** mush. Get two up front, f'f'sakes.
  18. Luciana Berger's a Jew so they probably aren't all that keen on her.
  19. That's wrong.

    Rome

    I love some of these scams. Funny as fook.
  21. Why do people keep misappropriating "Jihadi" on this forum? It's silly. Jihadi jihadists.

    Rome

    The bus routes in Rome are good. On some roads they have dedicated carriageways in the middle so always run promptly. There is also a decent metro. I wouldn't fret too much about location if you're on decent transport links. Main tips: - if you're doing a guided tour of the Vatican (which you should do), and you have time, visit the area the day before and try to find a good English speaking guide and book with them for the following day. Seriously, a good guide will make a hell of a difference and someone with native language skills and a sense of humour will make it even better. - same applies to the Coliseum etc. although I appreciate you won't have time to scope everything in advance. Just try to find a decent guide. - If you plan on going out for nice meals, do plan in advance on Tripadvisor. Italy has some of the best restaurants in the world and, pound for pound, some of the worst! - Go here: http://www.ristoranteadhoc.com/en/menu.html Have one of the tasting menus. One of the best restaurants I've been to. - If you want to cross a road at a zebra crossing, you just have to step out in front of traffic. They won't stop otherwise. - Try not to get run over.
