Gemmill 46013 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 According to the Journal we're in for Collins John. I think he's alright but I can't put up with any more whingy whining Welsh shit from that knobend Chris Coleman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Good touch, fantastic engine, natural born finisher, range of passing, great feet, aerial ability yadda yadda yadda, Hughie Gallagher". I look forward to that one.

adios 717 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Seriously (and soz Cath) but who the cunting fuck are we going to get now? I'm beginning to think it's no one and we're too skint to make any 'proper' bids. 177796[/snapback] Why spend 5 million on Duff then? I'm getting a little worried by Freddie's 'fly by the seat of your pants' negotiation and think he may have had a bad pastie, but we must have cash to spend. Roeder also seems like a man of principle (a few too many, if anything) so if he says he thinks we'll have 3 players in, then I believe that at least he believes we will. I still think there'll be another 15m spent before the window shuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 46013 Posted August 15, 2006 Author Share Posted August 15, 2006 Dotbum, have you just changed the B of Bum to a capital or has it always been that way? Anyway, surely your faith in Roeder must be on the wane now. We're now onto at least the third of fourth list of players he was after. Maybe if we'd pulled our finger out when Defoe first got sent home by Sven........ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if we'd pulled our finger out when Defoe first got sent home by Sven........ 177835[/snapback] It's always been like that, I'd have to be fairly bored to PM an admin to have that changed... "Do you like the my username? Yeah, I've just had it done. Mmmmm." Is he really on his 3rd/4th list? Kuijt would appear to still be on it, as he was before the World Cup, and I don't know who else was on it. Maybe Martins only became a realistic prospect when he wanted out, or it moved him up the list. Spurs were after crazy money for Defoe, if reports are to be believed, so I can't really blame Roeder for that. All this farting about has a lot more to do with Shepherd than Roeder, and I think he's going to take it right to the wire, again. Anyway, the Keegan years are over, this is as exciting as our season gets, so we'd better enjoy it while it lasts. FACT! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweetleftpeg 0 Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 Thing is, everyone knows we're desperate for a centre forward, so everyone is going to overprice anyone we come in for. We're not going to get a decent bargain centre forward, so we're going to have to pay big money I'm afraid or be stuck with what we've got.

If we're bidding, then that players available, at a price, and if we go elsewhere, they end up with a potentially unhappy striker. They don't have the only striker (we do, Shola). Gemmill, weren't you insanely optimistic under Souness? Why the sudden reversal? Probably Souness, scarred me for fucking life! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club have had ample opportunity to watch him but instead chose to do it just a few weeks before the transfer window closes. Fucking mockery.

Probably Souness, scarred me for fucking life! 177867[/snapback] Got my fingers burnt. Plus I just think we're incapable as a club of handling the whole concept of transfer windows. Until we work out how they work and how the different stages affect player's values etc., we'll repeat these mistakes again and again. You get in early, get what you want, and then you add finishing touches if someone becomes available. You do NOT do all your business in the last two weeks.
