Surprise surprise but misery moo here doesn't think we should buy the dick. He turned us down for money He got accused of Rape He isn't even all that good at QPR. It's coming to something if our best bet is trying to get remy on the cheap because he's facing charges and not made an impact.

It still puts it in perspective for those that make out its a mass of money to Mike. If you work off 1750 tops out of a 15000 savings account. I bet he's bet more on the bloody gee gees.

well, I can only blame the education system - I was always taught that we don't have the same Billion as the US, which strictly speaking we dont (science papers still use the UK Billion) It's americanisms. But for world finance it made sense to change apparently.

Yeah, I think hes a wing back. He's a much improved player at Liverpool too imo.

lol, well it took some time , but I've finally showed my ability to post tosh topics. Doh! FFS I knew I was confused over the american and UK billion - but yep after checking the "treasury" decided that we would use the american standard now and not the UK one. (http://www.guardian.co.uk/notesandqueries/query/0,5753,-61424,00.html) UK Billion has 12 zeros, the treasury decided it didnt when in inflation. 1,700,000,000,000 = 1.7 billion 200,000,000 = 200 million 1,700,000,000,000 / 100 = 17,000,000,000 = 1 % (or 17 million) Thats my excuse anyhoo. So same argument and 10% 15,000 and £1,500 Although its even better for ashley as its not a proportion of his income at all, but his MASSIVE savings.

nah it doesnt equate to formation does it? I'm not saying I'm right mind, just debating. You can have a 442 with wingbacks can't you? You can even have 442 with wingbacks and attacking midfielders if you want to overload (Man u did this a lot a few years ago), but they've got to be very good and usually come with 2 DMF . I also thought Wingbacks came when 5-3-2 became popular, not 352 - 3 5 2 is defensive wingers right? as in the players aren't defenders starting from the back but wingers who defend. (WingBACKS mean to me that they start at the backline). In fact - Yahoo answers wins http://uk.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080127040654AAUg9F2 (I know its shit, just saying for a laff).

lol, there's no defending the fucker now. But I suppose we get what we ask for, mercenaries.

Firstly , that topic header is all wrong I mean't to say 1.17% of your worth , which to most is their yearly salary at most) Cos that's what 200 mil is to ashley. started this in another thread and enjoyed the banter. So hypothetically speaking, if you had a neighbor who chanted get out of our street you fat geordie wanker in front of your child - and you earned 15,000 a year. Would you spend £175 (1.17%) on some trees that blocked all daylight from his home, if you knew it would really upset him, for example? Another question, would you spend that on me fookin off the forum and stopping banging on about this? - (Paypal account given on request!)

,We were shocking, why the hell Pardew didn't give the bench lads more of a run out, I've no idea. Why bring players on, in a friendly for 10 minutes - smacked of desperation to get a result in a fookin friendly. Bet it was hot as hell too. Talks about fitness then does stupid shit like that. (a'la Ben Arfa on that frozen shitty pitch).

heh yeah, they are pop/punk though, so tell him to shove it They are far more pop than punk. Pop means popular music right?

Multipost, but you just got that in as I was writing. I see the opposite here - it seems inconceivable that he will address it. The whole reason we needed to emergency buy those players was due to him doing exactly what he's done every year again. I fail to understand some people on here who are so optimistic that something that's been the same EVERY YEAR since Ashley's arrival is suddenly going to do a full 180. If we do get relegated our best hope is Ashley gives up as the "business" becomes even more unprofitable. For those optimists, tell me a year where we strengthened our team, just 1 .

I wish I had your optimism, it's sad innit I dont even think outgoings mean incomings , given the evidence of the last few years. Maybe 2 outgoings buy 1 player at 40% total sale value at best Something that I haven't seen picked up on here is that we appear to only spend big money on players who have something devaluing them - but could easily make a quick buck on. E.G Cabaye, depression - Tiote , attitude - Ben Arfa serious fallings out at most of his past clubs - Demba Ba - dodgy knee. All bought on the cheap - and I think whatever people say about Pardew he's been very good at developing troubled players. Cabaye's the only one out of that group that I think has been a failure in that respect . Tiote, Ben Arfa & Demba Ba have all increased value massively. I honestly think Cabaye is just not performing for us at all - He was magnificent at first, but he's just been crap - I'd rather have Brigicantspellhisnamefortoffee or Anita every single day. Sure he can score a free kick, but last night he couldnt control a ball to feet from 5 yards away and just seems totally despondent.

Right that's it. I've seen the last picture on here and there's no defending him - it's actually worse now in my book that he is using religion that he doesn't even follow seriously as an excuse. Bacon slice to the face.

I disagree again, my understanding of wing back / full back is: Wingback is a defender & a winger with defensive duties, usually players drop back to fill the gap. E.G. Leighton Baines / Gary Neville etc. His job is to bring the ball forward himself and distribute accordingly - he's supposed to pass off the ball when he comes under pressure but is free to go all the way to the touchline and cross. Fullback is a wide defender, who's area of operation is from the touchline to the halfway line only . E.G. Phil Neville. If he passes the half way line he's not doing his job , unless it really is totally clear ahead of him, where he's still expected to pass it off - not go to the touchline and chuck in a cross. Wingbacks play in teams who either have very advanced Left sided midfielders (who really play LW , RW but a little behind the strikers) or defensive wide midfielders (rare as rocking horse shit nowadays). Fullbacks play in teams who have attacking midfielders / wingers in front of them. Pardew likes to mix the two and expect his wingers to be defenders also - e.g Jonas and Ben Arfa - and that , for me, is where we go wrong (although arguably Jonas is a defensive Left sided midfielder now, as his crossing is pointless and his pace isn't quite as good). Lol, we could be here all day.

On topic, I watched it last night and just saw the same team that shat themselves last year, doing the same stuff and also arguing with eath other. As posted before though, both Vuckic and Gouffran were our best players by a country mile and vuckic was only on a short time for the wrong positioned sissoko. Take what you want, but we shouldn't be conceding goals like that. Tiote and cabaye were our worst players imo. Cabaye was just shocking, his first touch was awful all game long.

Well said. Piss poor so far, players arguing with each other already, never a good sign. Did ameobi genuinelly hurt his arm? That dive earlier was risky if he did. Soft soft goal

"Is a Joke" and that's the thread finished

After all the ranting I've done on here defending the lad for having some kind of integrity - I'll be getting a plane over to wherever the fuck he goes and giving him a slap round the face with a slice of bacon.

Well that's Cisse fucked innit. I'm still not convinced it's him, but if no lawsuit comes then it defo is.

Again, I do think he's good at rambling to the media. Much better than jokeinear. I do wish that they would stop saying that European Cup competitions are a hinderance. I'd rather we play to win a cup than just write them off every year, its getting embarrassing . (Although I reckon Pardew did very well with his 2nd string in that competition to be honest). Cheers for posting that CT.

Vuckic hat trick - you read it here first

Oh that's some good news, maybe its our good news day today at last )))

That could be any black guy in a wooly hat, it might be my monitor but all I can see is his nose, its poorly lit and hes directly below a light source. Would put this argument to bed if it was though.

hahahahahaha, In all seriousness, do you reckon that really is the truth? I mean that would be a top drawer way to wind up Pards wouldn't it? "But Joe, I'm really worried for the future we are going to struggle to survive" "Don't worry Pards mate, we've got a guy coming in tomorrow who really will clarify our stance on the future, no worries" Regarding Gignac, you're right - but if we do get him its only to replace Cisse - and then we'll forget about the need for another striker "They wanted a striker, we bought one, if Cisse hadn't left us in the shit we'd have 2 strikers , honest guv"
