I wouldn't set too many hopes on obtaining much for Mayuka, he's absolute rubbish and a permanent bench warmer at Sochaux. If we get 1.5 million for him we'll have done bloody well. Can't see what possessed us to buy him in the first place.

I really don't understand this difficult financial situation. We owe some not yet due transfer fees, we have more revenue this season than last and should make a profit. Why is what is supposed to be a mega rich owner quibbling over a few quid. Have the actual 2012/13 accounts been published anywhere ?

To take "decisive action" our board will need to double his salary and promise him a respectable transfer budget for next season with no "committee" input. Sounds pretty simple actually, don't know why they're not getting on with it unless of course Mauricio is stalling.

Given up on Seedorf already then have they ?

Anyway Liverpool is about Suarez,Sturridge and more recently Sterling, all the rest is pretty mediocre. Any reasonable side with Suarez would probably win the PL. He's scored what 30 league goals in about as many games not even to mention the high proportion of the 12 penalties that he's obtained for them. If we had Suarez we'd be top 4, it's as simple as that. If Utd had signed him they'd be top and Moyes would be the best thing since sliced bread. Never seen one player totally dominate a championship in the way that he's done.

does he actually play for them just now, noticed it was Harding at LB yesterday, perhaps Fox is injured currently.

I think you may want to review that statement actually. The increase in player salarial mass isn't 2 million, it's about how much PL base fund is used for salary increases. If you get a new shirt sponsor for 30 million a year you can plonk all of that on players' salaries. For the PL central fund the figure was 4 million for this season, 8 million for the next season and 12 million for the one after. The threshold figure also goes up so we'll still be under it anyway. Here's the gen Short-Term Cost Control MeasurePremier League clubs are restricted in terms the amount of increased PL Central Funds that can be used to increase current player wage costs to the tune of: - 2013/14: £4m - 2014/15: £8m - 2015/16: £12m The Short Term Cost Control measure applies only to clubs with a player wage bill in excess of £52m in 2013/14, £56m in 2014/15 and £60m in 2015/16.

Utd had a few managers between Busby and Ferguson, including McGuiness who lasted less than half a season, Busby even stepped back in to replace him after he was sacked. O'Farrell was pretty disastrous but the others all lasted 3 or 4 seasons.

It all depends, Everton finished yesterday's game with a second choice CB pairing. Don't know the status of Jagielka and Distin but with the young Stones (who looked handy by the way) and the Paraguayan wallah their defence might be a bit weaker than usual. However our front men will need to take their chances correctly and not waste them again as they did on Saturday.

No idea, the French league is very poor overall and even a sack of crap can look to be a good player on occasions because of the time and space available and the wimpy tackling. Nothing against Cabella, probably be alright but wouldn't spend billions on him. Ben Arfa looked a fantastic player when he was at Lyon but he's been very hit and miss with Newcastle.

Who the f*ck would want Moyes ?

Cabella? Round about 12 million euros I'd expect. Nicollin was asking 17 million € in January because he didn't want to sell the player before then end of the season.

So then Hants 328 all out, Derby are now about 60/1. Draw then, Hampshire's slow run scoring yesterday will put paid to much hope of a result methinks.

To be fair Kagawa is ineffective and Van Persie gave up on this season before it started. He's only interested in his last World Cup.

I remember putting up a copy of the agreement between BFC and SFC on this very forum about a year ago.

There is a fair bit of press coverage for our players because they're excellent players playing for a modest team with no great prospects of any substantial further progress in the near future.

but all the same he has a less than 20% win record in the PL. Whether that's good or not I just couldn't say.

We're not qualified for Europe so UEFA's rules mean nothing to us just now. Liverpool made a massive loss 2 years ago but that won't be taken into account. Only clubs qualified for Europe are affected by UEFA's rules. However the PL rule is not to lose more than 105 million £ over 3 years which we are no doubt well within because we only lost 6 million or so last season and will make a profit this season. What might cause us problems is the increase in player salarial mass which can be funded from the PL hand-outs. Last season we were below the 52 million threshold so it didn't apply to us, it might still not but there I couldn't say. For 2012/13 the organisations total salarial mass was 47.1 million, 90% of that should probably be down to players salaries so we had a good margin. with the 3 major additions at say 50K a week each we'd still be well under the 52 million plus we've loaned a few players out. We're permitted an 8 million rise next season so that should still give us good scope.

No arguement with the content except that it's "the Liebherr" and not the Liebherrs. There is only 1.

Ramos has already signed somewhere else, Dortmund perhaps. If you want players from German sides it needs to be done by now, they don't hang about waiting for ditherers to decide if they want them or not.

Perhaps not, we don't create many chances and we fluff the few that we do, still might take one more at least this season.

The maths is faily easy 21000 STx25£ increase= 525000 £ 700 STs @ av 650£=455000£, both amounts to be diminished for VAT of course. What I think we may be seeing less of each year is the number of U11s, weren't they free in the family stand up until 2 seasons ago?

Which it did anyway, to be fair to him he did save 1 effort.

On the goalscoring front nothing can be considered to be worse than last week because we didn't score any either. Think we'll see Morgan and Davis pushing a lot further forward this afternoon.

JWP as well, maybe were going to let Victor sit in front of the back 4 with Morgan,JWP and Davis pushing forward more when possible. Poor old Corky, dropped again.
