Kind of game we get a result in. 0-0

Exactly. Perez was peanuts, one of our best players. Also our finite pool of money should easily be able to cover 12 million and a lot more. Other. Clubs pay more for squad players

What difference does that make?

What I mean is, so fuck if 12 million is over the odds. Who decides what a player is worth? The club selling. If we want him then we pay the asking fee or we dont. We have haggled over half a million in previous years. The club is definately rich enough to buy a 12 million pound player so why not? If he turns out shite and we sell him for 5 next year, what have we lost?

Dont know why fans are ever arsed about how much a player costs, its not coming out of our banks.

We are planning a trip to Cuba for late summer I think. Will get a weekend up in Edinburgh again at some point and another weekend away, looking at eastern europe atm cos ive only ever been to Bulgaria and it was grim as fuck.

I'm just not sure what constitutes proven really. Like the finish article, at the top of his game, playing regularly for a good team? No chance of us signing them I'm afraid.

Like I said there is a risk associated with every transfer, Lamela looked a world beater at Roma 30 million to Tottenham and he was dog eggs for 18 month. Unproven players are just as likely to hit the ground running as proven ones IMO. I agree that we tend to do things on the cheap, which is why it's mad to pay mental money for bang average "proven" players like Shelvey or Townsend. Expecting the current regime to change their MO now and sign us the exact right players for big money is absolute nonsense however, if they wanted to do that we wouldn't be in this position.

It's patently nonsense as well, with the amount of homegrown players not getting a game, how do all these other teams buy all these "proven" players? They don't of course, every team takes a risk with every signing. Look at Leicester again, nobody would have been buzzing if we bough Vardy or Mahrez last summer, now people would snap your hand off for either. They were proven, and exactly the same players then as now.

Leicester bought Kante from France for about 5 mill, exactly what we need and miles better than Shelvey (also keeping Inler out of the team) But he wasn't proven so let's buy Voldemort instead.. There is only about 4 clubs who buy proven players in the league, mainly because they cost a bomb but ignoring the money, it's mainly because British players are over rated by fucking miles.

I was thinking more of the length of time, if he puffs at that rate he must knack loads of tabs in a day.

I have porridge at work, so I can leave the house quicker

Nobody else wondering why he can't watch a film without not one, but two fag breaks?

Didn't start till I was 21 (Marlboro reds or lucky strike cos they were cheaper), packed in this time last year so 30. Getting cancer helps focus the will to stop I found. Especially when you see the poor cunts in having chemo who go regular and look like zombies.

I think I have got to the bottom of this, CT what does the word bloated mean?

Nice one mate, glad it's finally sorted for you. Estate agents are robbing bastards mind. I've decided to leave this place but rent for another year, big struggle cos this place is a converted mill in Manchester city centre and it's really nice, but it's also freezing and expensive. Going to move out to a suburb and look for something that has proper central heating.

The way they used the poor teenager to get to his uncle was dispicable imo, that kid definitely didn't cut a woman's throat. Think Avery probably is a shitbag but the whole innocent until proven guilty thing seemed the wrong way round in this trial, the cops all seemed dodgy as did all the prosecution and even his first defence lawyer. Got to remember though that it was a documentary not a complete recount of everything presented so it could have been cut and edited to make it look more corrupt than it was. The plebs from anonymous have said on Twitter that they will release proof he was framed, not holding my breath.

50 million is nowt, especially given the state the squad was in due to massive underspending in previous years. It's almost as if years of scraping by with the bare minimum and feeding loyal fans a load of shite has finally caught up with NUFC.

Got a hernia where I had my cancer op last year. Weird little fucker pops back in when I push it, going back under the knife next week to strap it back down. Also got a bad back because I have been compensating for the hernia, and the flu, and I started back at work today. 2016 is shit

Depends what constitutes a meal tbh.

Isn't our squad "full"? Like we have registered 25 players? So would either need to unregister someone who would get paid and not play or sell someone, both pretty unlikely.

Hope everyone had a good one and all the best for this year x

Not sure how to do spoilers on iPad so I will hold my tongue but further reading around the case expands on the show if you are interested.

Got four other couples coming over for a bit food and drinks, been volunteered to cook for 2 vegans, a veggie and a pescitarian with lactose intolerance. Still going to get what they are given or go hungry.

I finished it last week. Its class but I wont say anything until you have all caught up.
