Persuading them to join the club is obviously a bit of a problem. Decent managers can be a bit choosy now cos there is a continual stream of jobs to pick from. Manager's jobs are like buses, if you miss one there be another along in a few minutes.

No, Caveat Emptor.

Fortunately for us none of those moves happened. My, there's some gone downhill, cheap and cheerfull listed there. Update the bloody black box, it's obviously 3 or 4 years out of date. Oh and I presume Ferry means Jordan Ferri from Lyon.

Sorry about that. You get the point though. It's really too late now anyway. The situation is now down to the players, they have the ability to get us out of this mess and need to do so.

Well no, getting a new transmission guarantees that your vehicle will keep on rolling for a while, it's a mechanical fact. Changing the manager with 13 games left of the league season guarantees nothing.

Before he got here. Bloke had no pedigree for the job and really appointing him was just a stupid, stupid act. No doubt driven by desperation and cheapness.

But 12 games takes you back to the autumn I think. Over the last 6 Brighton and Huddersfield have both picked up 1 less point than us. Think Huddersfield will go down myself, with Brighton and Palace.

Not really,there are teams with worse form than ourselves just now. And the form book would say that we have the players to get us out of the situation.

And you probably could if your contract was fixed term without performance related clauses.

They spoke mostly about players from Burkina Faso and Congo.

The point is as I pointed out in the Promes thread this afty, what's the point of buying players when you don't play them and use the oldies without end.

Speaking of interesting football related pieces. There was one on Canal+ Sport yesterday which claimed some African players have suceeded in falsifying their age. So when you think they're really cracking players for 16 or 17 they're actually about 21 or 22.

What money is it that people keep talking about ? We keep buying players with every penny that we get in. How much did we spend in the summer, about 40 or so million wasn't it? Sold JRod for 12 so where did that money come from ?

It is so so easy to find 35 million or so of someone else's money.

But Spartak don't want to sell, that's the point. They'd have to if we had the readies to give them but it seems that we don't so they don't.

A lot of money or so I'm led to believe.

Because we probably thought they'd cave in, I mean we do so everybody does right !! Also the Black Box ran on Windows 95 and since it got an automatic update to W10 the screen has gone all fuzzy. Or Mitchell took the bloody instructions with him, that's a possibility I suppose.

Well yes but for about half of the amount..

What 55 million surplus ? We had to give money to Celtic, there's VAT and agents fees. The proceeeds of the VvD deal probably turn out at about 50 million at best.

He's probably regretting the initial outlay already anyway. Still think it was dodgy myself.

Why ? They don't want to sell him anyway so why accept payment on the never, never? It was up to us to stump up the full amount. If we couldn't then don't mess about.

No...you just have to let it go. We won't give them what they want which is all of the due money and so it's off. We're probably trying to fob them off with 10 million or so 3 times and they probably can't get credit to buy a replacement .

His mate probably told him he wasn't; Number 10 Ipomec=Promes Shancer.

Well I think we've moved on to Spartak wouldn't sell because we wouldn't give them the money now.

Right, if you don't have the money you can't give it to them.
