Given signs for Man City

Interesting post match comments from JFK (mind you, I'm not discounting that this could be more of his bullshit...)

 

"And as for outgoings, we're waiting on Shay Given and Charles N'Zogbia's situations. There's a sticking point over Given's move to Manchester City, with a lot of haggling going on, so we will have to wait and see on both of those two. I hope they go through soon, though, so I can go and spend that money."

 

FWIW if the fee is "undisclosed" then I reckon the club has accepted one lower than they think the fans will accept. Been too many undiscosed fees too IMO.

Ant, take your Irish blinkers off, Given is walking out on us during our darkest hour, that is the simple truth.

 

has fuck all to do with him being irish, i hated Carr and O'Brien and duff is massively overpaid and lost his spark ever since his last injury at Chelsea

 

 

he's leaving because nothing at the club has been dealt with in years and it's finally hit the point where it's nearly pointless turning out everyweek because his position is untenable, no matter how good a player shay or owen/martins etc are, and no matter how well the stars peform they are let down due to the lack of quality throughout the team and the ability to cope with injuries, were just likely to lose.

fuck sake we can't even beat hull

 

I agree, he has been with us for 10+ years now and has been through a lot. Why would he not be allowed to walk out on us? he has served his time and to be honest imagine yourself in his position! Week in, week out trying to stop goals with a defence that is appalling! I for one do not begrudge him a move away from us during this transfer window. I said to my mates during the Liverpool game that he did not look happy and would move during the transfer window. I dont know what you classify as a loyal player these days but i know for one that Shay and Steve have been more then loyal players to us for the past 10 years. I dont give a fuck how many transfer requests Shay has put in! He has still come out, week after week and put in and saved us plenty of points. As i have said previously, he bleeds black and white and will come back in the future as a coach.

 

 

If it had been a simple case of City making a bid we couldn't refuse then fine, off he goes with my blessing but the fact Given has behaved like a spoilt brat for a second time and handed in a transfer request, he can just fuck off.

I suspect the sticking point is that we want that Johnson lad coming in the opposite direction, and they just want to give us £££.

If Given had been in goal today we'd have lost. Harper showed much better awareness about his box and I doubt Given reached the deflected Cisse shot first half, Harper was damned unlucky for their goal as well, great block.

Well if my (usually reliable) source is correct, Shay has played his last game for us....

 

B)

 

People remember this one?

 

that source was the 3rd person who told me the same thing. I've not really wanted to go into it in case it got traced back but all I'll say is that there's a lot one here who are quick to forget how the club successfully ridded themselves of Milner in the summer and tried to do the same with Barton.

 

Unlike Keegan, Kinnear is dancing to Ashley's tune. Rumour has it that Shay's statement at New Year was on the back of what he realised was going on - not just because he'd simply had enough of NUFC.

 

Whether it's true or not, well who knows. But if he has realised he's been touted to other clubs in order to raise revenue, it would justify his statement?

Goodbye Given. Thank you for 11 years great service, for which I am very appreciative, but also you can fuck off for leaving us mid season when we need you the most.

oh is there any news on the city site of a fee or player coming the other way?
