Kitman

that article is excellent

He'll probably call him Bathtime Gomez...

Sounds like this fella is a big target man. Presumably we've now replaced Andy Carroll so we can launch long balls out of defence to The BIg Lad upfront. I suppose if we sign Remy as well that will give us more options.....instead of the long ball to the target man we can play the long ball into the channels for Remy to run onto. I'm not sure how Cisse fits in, cos we played a lot of long balls to him last season and he wasn't very good at it. Maybe he'll be there for the flicks ons and knock downs from the long balls.

I think so. Another rumour iirc was he'd failed drug tests and the injuries were a cover for rehab.

His injury record was a disgrace. And how he passed his medicals and then kept on breaking down seems odd to me. Something never really added up in his case.

It obviously takes a huge number of people to get the deal "over the line"......

Throughout the time Dyer played for us, I got the sense he was a complete shit of a man. I don't buy that he has much of a conscience over how he behaved under Sir Bobby's reign and if he feels any regret, it'll be for himself and his career. I expect a lot of premiership footballers are self regarding little twats like him, I'd have forgiven him all of that if he'd lived up to his potential with us. Unfortunately he spent too much time injured.

The Mail is claiming Trabonszpor are chasing Cisse. Or Sissee as jfk would say.

Kinnear is plainly struggling as we predicted. I'm not surprised by bent as I think we were only interested in getting him at a bargain price due to his situation at his age we won't recoup a transfer fee so he'll go to fulham. However jfk is such a clueless fucker there will be no plan b if gomis and remy don't come off.

Be interesting to see if society falls to bits in Uruguay through a descent into drug fuelled anarchy. Be good if there was a viable alternative to the "war on drugs", which the authorities aren't winning.

I'll believe it when I see him in a toon top

Pathetic if true.

no thanks. I'm not saying no striker will come in. I'm saying it's unlikely in my opinion we will sign two strikers given we already have four. Unless one of them leaves of course.

We have cisse gouffran ameobi and campbell. I doubt we're in the market for more thanks one striker sadly.

Or it's just a complete fucking shambles

I wonder how much of the prevarication with transfers is brinkmanship plus the usual trick of saving wages in pre season. it's likely to backfire if that's what we're up to.

Still nothing concluded. Perhaps Kinnear's local is a mobile phone black spot?

If the royals are parasites, what does that make royal correspondents? These so-called experts should be soundly beaten with shit covered sticks iyam.

I like to frequent the SkyCity casino now and then. Usually after I've been to a strip bar.

Horrible. RIP

We predicted Kinnear would be a bad joke and at the moment it's shaping up that way. The man who goes on holiday in the transfer window and tried to make Mick Harford his first signing. At this rate pre season will be over by the time we get a striker in and I dread to think who he'll pull out of his arse.......

I think what we should all appreciate with transfers is the importance of The Line. Getting transfers Over The Line is crucial but what does any of us know about the line? Some clubs like the mackems are plainly blessed with a thin line but in our case the line is as wide as the Tyne. Llambias may have looked like a nerdy accountant but had the pulling power of a small truck to drag our january transfers over the line. Unfortunately the effort nearly killed him so kinnear was brought in to replace him. As a football man you'd think there's nothing he doesn't know about the line but his age and health count against him. Once again ashley hasn't done his due diligence. I think he was expecting our line was like the mackems. Once he'd worked out where it was and went for a look he shit himself and needed a weeks holiday to recover. He needs to look after his heart after all. The good thing is joe now recognises he needs help. Maybe her used to be good with the line but it's a young man's game these days. harford would have been good man for pulling those transfers but he probably has geoff capes lined up as a replacement. No doubt once we have the staff in place on the end of the rope we can get those transfers over the line. In the meantime we have to be patient and recognise just how difficult it is.

I think you.re right, they could easily have won the first test. Their bowlers are pretty good imo but if clarke fails they don't seem to have anyone in their top six who can hunker down and accumulate a big score. I would drop watson down the order to no 5 and promote khwaja to opener with clarke at 3 or 4.

Kinnear can't even sign harford. Lolz

Jesus, this thread. Ashley wants his money back and a profit for his trouble. I don't think he gives two hoots about the club or the fans so I don't hold with the idea he would destroy millions of in value to get back at supporters. I think the biggest problem with him is he doesn't understand football and gets taken in by bullshit pedalling wide boys like jfk and jiminez.
