they could wheel out Black but we probably wouldn't be able to understand him either

Leicester winning at Everton

Bloody predictive text Iassume you meant Tadic

Lol

Perhaps you could go back to the poster you implied had made it up though and apologise

It cant be true as the posters on here said it was never said, must be the BBC making it up lol.

what is it then? It is a burning will to win IMO. Not everybody is a hold it back and say nothing individual.

you go first

In many ways your sarcastic post is indeed correct. He had the remit of Marcus to follow out their plan and was doing so.

Ive read the article and agree with a lot he says, but he has dropped his expectations and giving the fans a drop in theirs as well. Perhaps in 2 seasons time he will say 'It’s really important that we think long term so that we are still competing at 13th 14th and 15th in the league' and of course fans will say that's fine we are only a small club. Once Villa and Newcastle come back up they will be re energised and will invest to push us down further, as again we dilute our squad with players not qute up to speed in the PL

we complain that players don't have passion and then when they show it ,that is bad.

well as we keep selling our best players eventually thats what we will get. The players are not better when they are gone but have better around them, funnily enough a lot of the good players belonged to us in the first place. You go on defending the club selling the jewels with no questions asked.

I was talking to a friend last night about how decent Wanyama is in the Spurs team, and perhaps as he is now around better players who do something when he passes to them it helps and the same will go for Redmond once weve got our big profit on him

Well perhaps people from the outside looking in have not such a negative view of him. I think we are a better side with him in the team

if the club play him his transfer value will go down and so I doubt the club are willing to do that

Fonte obviously is not the same club servant he was before the |Euros. I never want our players to be chosen for international duty anymore as they get their heads turned

well if they are in a relegation battle then we must be,I would put money on that they will finish higher than us this season. Of course things may change and we start scoring goals, but at present it doesnt look like it. The club is in turmoil at present and the complacency in the summer window is perhaps coming home to roost.

Only one team can buy a player, who in the end chose us. Personally Im delighted he came to us as he will be a damned good player

It was a different world, but times were grim and you didnt have fans in replica kits and dressed like Pippo the clown. There was always a menace at away games and the gobby ****s ended up with a kick. Now you just get gobby ****s. Im not wishing for a return to those days, but fans like Dougal were respected , had balls of steel when facing some large groups of opposition fans. The world of football has been sanitised and now I am happy to take my children and grandchild, no way would the same then, it was predominently a mans territory and all that came with it.

Ok thats fair comment but my perception is that you do jump down the throats of some with valid concerns. Some posters do deserve it of course, but in the main most who come on here to voice the concerns for the club they have invested their time and life in are doing so because they care.

take it as you want, Iam just teling people what was said. It is pertinent as fans were jumping to conclusions that he was making trouble and since the poster has said it was his own musings

true but there was no need for him to be so upbeat.Apparently he said it without being pushed. How he feels now I dont know, when Im passing next time Ill call in and see if the person who told me has heard anymore.

This is something I brought up soem time ago, if we are not in a strong financial state with all the good money taken in, our business model must really be cack.

sadly you are the sheeps leader, you question nothing and just go along thinking that the club is not out to make money. I admire your unquestioning loyalty, but whether the owner takes a dividend or sees the clubs worth rise year on year it is a nice little earner. She doesnt need an income from the club as she is very well heeled. There was something online the other day saying her fortune was 3.3bn (i wouldnt know if that was true but i assume they didnt pluck it out of the air)and so having a loan is not the end of the world.

Thanks for putting that up VFTT, it is a shame is a player is caught in this mud sligging and he was not part of the problem. My info about Long saying the players loved Puel (some weeks ago ) is correct, hopefully the Black cloud may be lifted
