acrossthepond 877 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Shocking that we had 8months to get a striker and we only got serious about one in the middle of his medical with 4 hours to go. It's almost as if the club didn't want to spend the money. Doubt there was ever really a bid. Smokescreen, just as predicted, and just like N'Zogbia in January.

Dr Gloom 21924 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 We got exactly what I expected from the cunts in charge - another utterly shit window - and yet I'm still left feeling totally disgusted by their ineptitude. I was clinging on to the faint hope that they might have bought a clue, but no. They're still a bunch of despicable fuckwits who really don't give a shiny shite about how we do this season. Shola, best and ba ffs - officially the shittest strikeforce in the top flight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin S. Assilleekunt 1 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Shocking that we had 8months to get a striker and we only got serious about one in the middle of his medical with 4 hours to go. It's almost as if the club didn't want to spend the money. He's not an out-and-out stiker, more of a winger/no. 10 style, apparently. Our transfer policy just won't work when it comes to strikers. You pay a premium for goals, end off. This Cisse from Freiburg, he has a fantastic goalscoring record at a shit club, we should have splashed out the extra 1-2 mill it would have taken to sign him (if that was the case). That'd be an example of putting all that inflow from the Carroll sale onwards to good use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's almost as if the club didn't want to spend the money. Of course he doesn't want to spend the money. As long as there's enough players to put out on the field every game he's happy, no ambition for the future of the team at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sweetleftpeg 0 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 A farce as predicted. Glad to see others see this as the half arsed/PR stunt that the alleged bid was. Pathetic, laughable, but not surprising. What makes me more angry about all of this is that once again they think we're fucking stupid and treat us as such. Wankers.

Kitman 2207 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 Shola, best and ba ffs - officially the shittest strikeforce in the top flight. Combined cost 1.5 mill. It is amazing that every other club spends millions on its strike force and we spend the equivalent of a pint of lager and a packet of pork scratchings. Almost as if scoring goals doesn't matter. Madness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brock Manson 0 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 So many no-brainer deals we could've pounced upon. Bendtner on loan is an absolute gem of a signing for any team outside the CL teams. I think Santon was meant to be the big name signing to appease us. Dreading Pardew's excuses for not signing a striker. Cringefest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted August 31, 2011 Share Posted August 31, 2011 This striker search has seemed to overshadow that we needed a replacement for Barton aswell I kna for a fact people are gonna eat up that Pardews gonna say we were being outpriced and we're gonna spend in January Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
