Never forget the goal against spurs though!

 

The myth he was a good player was built on that type of stuff.

 

He was unpredictable but we needed something more than just that. We needed someone who could put away the easy chances, use his footballing brain and pace to beat defenders and someone who could control the ball. Unfortunately Oba was none of those things.

To some he was a cult hero, to me he was another example of how this club paid over the odds for players that simply couldn't cut it.

 

In a nutshell.

Has this been confirmed?

 

SSN saying deal agreed.

 

Solitary source it would seem. Believe it when it does actually happen - and not a moment too soon :)

 

Well his agent has said hes waiting for a medical so im inclined to believe its happening

Results of the medical: "Good God, this man has the face and body of a 50 year old!!!"

How many fucking times do they show that goal against Spurs in that clip? :)

 

Sums Martins perfectly mind - could turn it on when he felt like it but more times than not, he couldn't be arsed. If anyone thought we could retain him in the championship they were living in cloud cuckoo land. His salary was untenable. As has been said, I'd have been more concerned if Carroll or Ranger had gone as they're our future.

And recouping 90% of the fee we paid for him despite the fact we've dropped a division and in financial shit (allegedly) is a no-brainer.

 

Fucking excellent business by the club if it's true.

I have heard the ''financial shit'' is only because we owe Ashley and we are otherwise fine.

 

Eitherway, it's still good business. There's no way in hell we could sustain his salary.

So long as the money goes somewhere worthy it's good business.

Anyone who thinks the £9m is going anywhere other than Ashley's arse pocket needs their head examining.

Is ashley has sold martins and is pocketing the money then theres no sale however if the sale is arranged that would mean the embargo has been lifted and the money will go in the kitty for new owners
