Durham on TalkSport said the story comes from a good source and has legs.

Not at all true Greeridge but I am not going to hang the Board out to dry on half baked gossip, rumour and conjecture. If they say they are not selling up and aim for Europe then until they prove otherwise I am prepared to give them the benefit of the doubt. The people they have brought into the club lends credence to what they say at the moment. If you read my past posts I have been very critical of some Boards. Us oldies have been around a while and seen it all before, that is why we are probably more patient and more forgiving.

Let's hope he lives up to it!

I am not expecting too much against Liverpool but yes, this is a game it would be good to win big in.

So thats the plan? Top 8 in spending if not in the league?

I hope those three will stay, at least until January. I also think that they will keep some money back for future transfer windows - no point in p*ssing it all up the wall in one go if we dont have to!

Which is best guys?

So you dont think the club have already provided a statement of intent brining in the two Koeman's, Sammy Lee and a number of (not cheap) players???

Heard a guy from WBA saying how they are struggling to get a team out for the start of the season and about the problems they have had in bringing players in. Not just us then!

Just heard that on TalkSport. Would seem odd that he would throw his toys out of the pram if they had just made a bid for Cork.

Then that is good news but how do you know certain jounos dont have an agenda? I dont see many balanced articles from some of them - only one side of the story.

The club is rotten because they may or may not have received an offer for Cork which apparently hasnt been accepted anyway?

Why is it rotten? For starters we have been told that no bid has been accepted. You seem to be getting worked up over nothing. And if he does go I am sure there are good reasons for it. He may well b*gger off for nothing next year anyway so why get so upset?

oh well, another 60s icon bites the dust

Can the title of the thread be changed now please?

So lets talk about what we do know then. If he refuses to sign the offered contract is it better to sell him now and use the money towards another player who wants to be here or is it better to keep him until he can walk for nothing?

I just assumed he was gay.

Ah, but you should know by now that rumour=fact here! Trust me, believe nothing until someones arrival or departure is officially announced.

Agreed. I dont think they have said anything is new, just that we have a good scouting operation in place.

The Times are sying he "could" be going but then they might have picked that up from the Mail. If he goes, he goes, but I am not going to get worked up by anything the Mail has to say.

Over the past few years we have picked up some good deals. Lambert and Schneiderlin were both bargains. Fonte has paid his fee back several times over. Clyne was a very good buy. Lovren too at the time. Not all bad news.

I assume so as Reed went to Portugal to try and tie up the deal. It probably was until MU became interested -that is why the club try and keep their deals quiet I expect.

9 pages in based on something in the Daily Fail. Has anyone seen this mentioned anywhere else?

Lets hope he has the X Factor!
