i would thought. MLT would have been able to get him some publicity on Skysports

It is a fabulous gesture by him. I have volunteered to do a ice bucket challenge today. All money will go to FB' s run.

The unfortunate thing is that if he is not as good as he was before the injury will have him here for a long time, if he is back to his best he will leave. I hope he returns to his best but we then expect to see him leave to Spurs if MP is still there.

Top post. That is a very good assessment. Wes Tender put up a medical term/condition for CB's aggressive replies. It is a shame because behind the rants and unpleasantness he seems very decent and bright. When I have got him to reply in a more measured way he is a very good poster, but then he lapses back to the unpleasant rants. There are some very mixed up people on here, I suppose that is the internet for you.

surely it should only be for charitable causes? What about the VAT implications...I know they dont pay it

That is amusing. So a Pompey fixture is still a cup final day, but not for the opposition lol

All fair assumptions/opinions but we will never know if Lovren had been still here if he would have sulked. Funny how Boruc seems to become more realistic now the window has closed. I look at these things from a different prospective than some others who have posted above, who is right it is difficult to tell, they wont change their minds on what I say and vice versa.

as you mention yourself, it wasnt as Koeman was expecting and so given the choice? Iam not unduly upset at some of the players leaving as we got good prices. It was the way it was handled. Some dont see it that way, and Im fine with that, but i do not class them as some kinds of messiahs because they didnt moan as the club sold and took the money in

yep of course he wanted the rest gone as well.

Tony Fernadez said the other day he often goes onto the QPR forums as it gives him a feel how the fans feel

'Even if we buy eight players for £80m it's still a monumental f uck up. Because buying eight players for eighty million in one window is the kind of retarded thing that QPR does. Just a slung together team of complete strangers. ' Your post 28/07/14 Not making it up, CB If you believe that the fans unrest did not stop the club selling MS, if not why did all of a sudden did Ralf come out and guarantee he would not be sold?

yep i did, on many occasions. I assume you are not getting on your high horse about the word abuse and trying to put it in the Rotherham context lol. I assume the Morgans heads gone thread should be deleted if so I used the word abuse as in trust, many of us follow the club and would still support it even if the whole team was sold. That can and has been cynically used for the whole time football fans have followed their team. IIRC Freddie Sheperd(?) bragged about paying a fiver for shirts and then getting 35 for them?

The best teams keep to their beliefs of playing football to the final whistle. That's why the great Liverpool and Manchester Utd team were so successful. If your football is creative and your players good enough you should overcome if you keep to your beliefs. The plan B route is just desperation. Do clubs practice plan. B's in training, eg let's just hoof the ball into the box?

lol, so when we were told that no one would be sold until a new manager was in place came to pass did it? That had the fans not go into meltdown when the players were leaving, that Morgan would still be here? The club has taken in a lot more than spent out, they have dismantled a successful squad, and at present we don't know if the new team will gel. the best thing it seems to me they did was get Koeman, whose own reputation and judgement got in some good players, not IMO Reed or Krueger. As in your words in another thread 'it was a monumental mess up'

Great to see young Jason McCarthy on the squad list. I was told about it a week or so ago, his uncle apparently is re-opening the Soul Cellar. Good news all around

he wont be, no doubt Kelvin will be lol

by making Rooney captian he has made a rod for his back. The best England looked for yoears was just before the WC when Rickie was playing a link up with the forwards.

He is a player who works very hard and does not give the opposition any peace. I would think it was his price tag that is the most surprising thing of his transfer

Have you seen the 2 new players play? Have they been tested in the PL? It is all a leap of faith. Until we have seen the new team play for 5 or 6 games surely the jury must still be out. WBA home is still very much in my mind,and whilst WHU was a step forward we cant jump quite yet

until you try you never find out. As soon as the window closes those players would need to play to keep their profile up. Their agents would soon be onto them if they were losing their bonusses and International place. Agents are a curse to the modern game and they are a major reason why the unrest happens

I think this is valid. The argument that we couldn't hold people to their contracts was shot out of the water. I assume the counter will be that Morgan won't sulk like Lallana or Lovren

you put a good post and then you finished it with yor last comment. If a man had put that up about about women you would want them banned. Not all men are vile, and you have issues that you should address if you believe your sad comment.

some on here gave the board their unconditional backing,full credit to them. I still do not have the same faith but will accept that they look to have got in a good manager who can attract players in. I still think Reed is useless and if Koeman has found 4 of the players in why do we need 20 scouts? The club have taken in the region of 80-90m and spent in the region of 50-60m. i have yet to see any evidence that they would have not taken in another 25-35m if they could have sold MS and Jrod, but the fans meltdown (not just on here)stopped that. Good business if you are the owner. How many believe MS and Jrod will be with us in Feb? So lets not get too in front of ourselves, we may have a couple more Taiders! There again if Koeman knows the iam sure they will be fine

Pretty boy centre halfs always worry me. They need to have broken noses and scars

Even though we bought/loaned nine players it's still a monumental mess up. When we have seen these players in a Saints shirt then we can see ho0w we have fared. It seems the manager has a pull to get players in.
