Ellis getting second thought? Er, he has just put £28m of his own money in. If he stays at Sunderland 10 years it will cost him quarter of a billion at that rate.

There is the possibility that Pardew has told the players to act this way as he sees how ineffectual he was influencing the owner to keep Carroll. Maybe Pardew thinks he needs the players threatening to leave to pressure Ashley into acting. Its what i'd do.

Which would be reflected in the balance sheet and thus the purchase price, net effect = nowt either way. Club's in private ownership and we deal in 'undisclosed' transfer fees. Irrelevant. Toonpack is right.

As club captain was privvy to the swedish specialist's report.

Kevin is right too, you clearly fancy Steve.

Hoy your miserable mug up then.

Enrique's agent will have sat up and paid attention when he saw the price Carroll went for.

Nothing to stop him getting 5 more before the end of the season. Then sell him for £15m

Since Carroll has been out/left, Best has scored at the same rate if not better than Carroll (who was 5 in 9 starts going into the derby)

7th? Blyme. Where would we have finished if we had kept Carroll?

A rusty trombone then.

Netto never sold anything worth 20 pence for 35 pence in its entire history though.

My all time favourite song. Been listening to that James Blake album quite a bit recently. Defintley good but definitely over-hyped.

Wishful thinking.

As you know, am quite positive in my outlook so i want to believe that. However, if an offer which is too good to turn down does come in for Enrique then i guess he would be off. The only player i dont think we could replace is Tiote, so am hoping that the Carroll deal was more complicated than met the eye (agents, dubai, swedish specialists etc).

The more "highlight the bit where i said that" type-posts the better. I dont care who's doing it.

fuck off to an arsenal forum Fuck off to a Barcelona forum Why would I do that? I want English teams to get beat so they don't 'cash-in' from winning euro competitions Well if you're too dense not to get that someone else might support the English clubs then there's nae point in discussing why saying the same thing back to you is fair comment. As for your reasoning am not sure it's even logically or financially sound thinking. Do explain the economics of English football failing and our commercial revenues. Obviously the same four teams getting into the Champions League year after year, has nothing to do with their individual revenues I just dont think its as clear cut as that with UEFA coefficient, commercial sponsorship and TV revenues all counter-balancing a proportion of their relative gain CL. Also Spurs being in there this year sort of defeats that argument anyway. Anyway, it was telling him to fuck off to an Arsenal forum i took issue with.

Wilshere looking good tonight.

Arsenal much the better side this half. Deserved.

Good goal that from the rapist.

Had a lush time in San Fran this time last year. Went to the Supper Club, which had lots of tranny fanny so you might want to try dinner there Dave.

Disappointing really that even when you include a smiley (rare for me) and a deliberately (ironic) childish statement like 'Gemmill started it', i still need to point out its just banter? What happened to you man? You used to be funny and clever.
