Over time, the dream, middleweights. Spot on comments suggesting he's looking at the bigger picture for a steady improvement rather than a quick fix.

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/...nt-manager.html The Mail have solved that mystery

Play him in midfield to get the best out of him

The headline writers are going to struggle badly when we loan him out

Wouldn't surprise me

That the one?

We're going to need a fair bit of luck with injuries. Collocini was previously indestructable, I'll give him 3 games

I'd be surprised if we got that much, but Moyes isn't daft and perhaps Smith would work better in his team. Just look at the quality performances he coaxed out of Beattie

Rarely have a mickey mouse club had a higher opinion of themselves. Their best ever season they came THIRD. They'll never be half as big as Sunderland, and I bet Parker, Nobby, Dyer, Bowyer and Bellamy are fully aware of that now. City wouldn't be a good investment in my view, but if you look at all these clubs who have been taken over, I think ridiculous as it may seem now, but we'd probably be the best investment at the price he got us for. A club is only as good as its fanbase, and ours is probably the third largest in the country, there's no where where the scope for growth is larger than it is here. And you thought you were poorly run. Ljundberg - 70K / week Bowyer - Now playing in the reserves. Neil - 70K / week Dyer / Bellers - perpetual crocks. If you are looking for an outside bet for relagation, they are the team. Upson, Boa Morte and Parker will be on decent wedge too I'd imagine

Maybe needing a box so as to host potential investors? or just that they've got a fair few big groups with bigger financial clout than you guys and were shifting you aside? That is very possible as the box isnt mine, Ive got it as a one off. dunno why she mentioned the stuff in the news though, unless she was using that as an excuse to try and move us. Should have charmed it out of her

I wonder what Rick Astley makes of all this?

When's Kaka signing Boyo?

I can't see that being anything other than 100% true

Pump her full of drugs and send her out there

After that lot go I'd put Owen next in line

The child obviously wasn't holding the money

An injury and a squabble, just missing a night on the piss for the perfect Bellamy hat-trick

Hoy Stroller in too, buy one get one free, sorted

Yeah!! Should have said Drogba/Torres. I`m being realastic as to who we could afford/who would come. I think Davies isnt a bad choice as someone who can do what Owen/Oba cant ie hold the ball up/batter defenders He'd get fucking slaughtered by the fans imo. Very ordinary player, no real improvement on what we've got. He's fit, strong and he puts himself about but that's it. I'd be gutted if he was the sort of player we were signing. Surely we could sell a vision to Drogba

Who's told you that? Plain to see really mate. Look at the signings so far, cutting wages etc. If MA was serious we would have signed 5 or 6 top players plus a few squad players, we have one of the samllest squads in the league and you dont push the big boys with small squad/average players. We are definately better off than we were financialy but you cant tell me you are not dissapointed with our signings under MA. With the exception of Beye the rest have proved average/below par (Not including Jonas in that) So because he hasn't spent top four type money so far you've decided that there's no way he ever will, is that right?

No, what's the daft shite saying? Reckons that representatives of the Reliance Group have told him that there is an None Disclosure Agreement in place that doesnt permit them to say if that indian bloke is the "client", but we should expect further developments in the next 24 - 48 hours Meeting with Mike Ashleys legal representation on Monday So I'm told anyway Surely by "telling" David Craig that there is a None Disclosure Agreement in place it confirms Anil Ambani is a client? SSN aren't going to play this story down as it would impact on NotW's sales, so I wouldn't read too much into this. I'm certainly not, it's 99% likely to be bollocks. I expect all round denials soon enough At least the asking price has dropped anyway

Has anyone been watching David Craig on SSN?

Dared to call himself a billionaire yet hasn't hoyed stupid money at David Beckham in order to get him to sign He's an astute businessman and he's doing a job of getting the club in order after years of mismanagement from Fat Fred. Of course stuff like this only goes on behind the scenes and we don't see the immediate benefit on the pitch so people don't believe anything is actually going on. I'll not lose a wink of sleep over this story. If it's true great, if not then i'm happy with Ashley as owner. Imagine what he thinks about the money he spent last summer on the likes of Barton, Geremi, Viduka and Smith for starters Viduka was free [/pedant] I'm including wages/signing on fees in that
