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!

Indeed, we dont pay huge wages and you would expect agents to hang out for the best deals (look at Rojo). All the team can do it to recommend players - the rest is up to whether they want to come or not.

Unlikely that Ronald would have know about this lad so assume he was on the list of the much derrided scouting set up.

My daughter just phoned to say she got two Bs and a C. In my day that was brilliant but she sounded a bit down. Given she hardly did any work for English C is a result. She has a place in art college next year so another year of CSA payments, but I am happy for her.

My mate is a Palace season ticket holder and thinks Puncheon is "rubbish."

No. I am saying that it doesnt matter where someone comes from. Cant you read?

You really are a prize t*sser arent you.

Dont forget that goal machine Frank Saul!!!
