  1. yep to be fair to Patek, they are real watches. Rolex make 20 k a week and so are mass produced but as you say make themselves expensive so people desire to own them. The Chinese knockoffs are so good that it is nye impossible to tell, so that just shows that they are sold on their name only The nonsense of having to be a brand name.
  2. I thought it suited him when he played in front of the fullback under Puel
  3. yes it has gone on players. Not over and above
  4. behave, he hardly had a game until recently and been on the bench. If you saw his goals they were scuffed most of the time. IMO he os not ready yet. The club would love to have the heat taken off them by the fans calling for Gallagher, it is Jay of last season part 2. We as fans lost out as the club was able to take the cheap option of keeping JRod instead of buying, all on the back of a fluky goal against Sunderland
  5. I put a thread up about this last week. As always there were the yes men who said I was wrong and there is plenty of time. I also notice the smoke and mirrors how Ralph was said to have said the 75 would be put back but now it seems that has changed to over the next few years. It is comical how the PL millions are forgotten and only once we sell for a fantastic price that is used as the excuse of a budget. The fans have the wool pulled over their eyes all the time
  6. I get the sarcasm but in the last couple of games he came on set up a gilt edged chance for Austin and Gabbi yesterday...but don't let your dislike get in the way of good judgement. With quick minded players alongside him with pace he would be a very good player. It seems to me the manager has put shackles on him. Pep cant be that poor a judge, he is also frustrated seeing how Redmond has had his progress stalled
  7. i get what you are saying but,Les and the Liars told us that CL/ European football was always the aim. Yes those clubs get big gates but they don’t get the PL riches. les and Ralph raised our expectations and that has brought them a problem Hence noe Ralph is saying we are a small club, all part of pulling us down to be thankful for just surviving every season. frustrating watching Everton Liverpool the other night where about 8 of our explayers were on show
  8. yeah but 8th wasn't good enough so 9th pah lol. Hughes would be a panic appointment IMO
  9. you're getting old to know about that lol
  10. I don't think the best brands will let you sell at discount prices. To get the dealership you cannot discount, that's why Rolex is a strong brand.
  11. but is he? I don't think he has been successful anywhere
  12. How can our fans want Hughes!!
  13. Tell you what, I was going to Devon today and stopped in some services on the M5and there were about a dozen Bury fans. I didn't know who they were playing or how they are in their league. Only when I watched final score did I see that they lost 3-0 to Plymouth and are 11 points adrift at the bottom of their league. Now that is true fans and also something really to moan about. Cup final and 8th and we sack a manager lol
  14. when he starting limping after a challenge a big part of me thought 'I do hope so' The commentators really did big him up, there was a moment 2nd half where he left the ball for the keeper to come but really he should have cleared it and they blamed the keeper. There really is a massive bias towards Liverpool compared to any other club in England. At no time did they mention his appalling behavior
  15. Les Reed football supremo lol, I bet he loves that tag
  16. the really sad thing about the clubs head in the sand approach, there are a lot of decent peoples jobs at stake here. I remember last time we went down the jobs lost was awful
  17. Absolutely amazing, you seem to know what you are doing and so good on you.
  18. The wailing wall, has nothing on the main board at present Mack. its bedlam, but understandably so. If we had stolen the Fa cup ,and all the star players for the success , like your lot, then it wouldn't be so bad, but doing it the hard way and then throwing it away is worse.
  19. what are his memories of Dellhurst park? saints fans everywhere in the ground.
  20. One of the lads from Totton went to the top of the pylon.It was an exciting day shall we say

    Why???

    Normally you could be correct, but this is quite unique, where the transfer was announced before the window was opened. We must have been working on that for 2-3 weeks, and so we could have done the same. By not doing so and getting pre agreement any signings we are now going for will be millions more. And so the good price we got will be eroded
  22. OldNick

    Why???

    Well Liverpool didn't hang around. The secret is to be there early and get the deal in. Allowing us to strengthen as January starts not at the end of the month.
  23. yep you don't even bother to post Mack. I was getting worried about you in case one of those Matloes had fallen in love with you and forced you into his kit bag. There again , I don't think the word forced would come into play
  24. If this system is to stop banks making their normal commissions etc, why are people expecting the banks to help?
  25. OldNick

    Why???

    The club has no excuse to not have made a signing as soon as the window opened. They seem to be able to grease the wheels when they are selling. VVD was obviously gone 2 weeks before the window opened and so we had plenty of time to get our ducks in a line to buy. It is laughable how slow we are to get these things done, we had a head start in knowing we had the funds coming in
