Hmmm....Does the latest Tarkowski bid of £35m (inc add ons) tell us the Board are planning to sell Rice?

In a very unpleasant moment, the horrible thought (headline above) just occurred to me.... My thinking: £35m on just 1 player? What about the others we need - LB especially? We only got 26 odd milllion for players who have been sold, so there's a big shortfall - especially if we are to buy a LB...an...

Re: Billy Bonds

Idolised this man growing up. He remains my favourite hammer of all time and one of only two whose name I would wear on the back of a shirt. Me too! I watched the whole of this interview. What a humble, straight, down to Earth guy - as you'd expect, I suppose...But didn't disappoint.... My favourit...

Re: jeremy Ngakia

Let's not jump to conclusion and slag the young lad of ffs. If what I have read is true, the club have apparently offered him an extension to his trainee contract why the formulate a formal contract offer. If that is correct, it would appear to be rather short cited tbh. FFS, how long does it take ...

Re: jeremy Ngakia

The kid has been at the club since he was a boy. He'll have been surrounded by wise heads who he could have consulted for sound advice. But no; instead, he listens to some viper agent..... The dirty, greedy, little shit. There's the massive difference right there between him and Dec, who has foregon...

Re: WHU players going to Spurs

Brady was still brilliant when he came to us. And so was Hartson imo . Fabianski was shit at Arsenal , went down with Swansea but been triffic for us . I’m sure there’s more . I don't count Fab at all,as he'd been away from Arsenal for a long time by the time he came to us. I never think of Fab as ...

Re: WHU players going to Spurs

Personally, I can't really think of any good players that came from Arsenal apart from Nigel Winterburn.... I thought he was really good. I feel all the others were aged, injury-prone flops.... Was Ian Wright any good (as I genuinely can't remember?!) Didn't last very long did he...and no one ever ...

Re: WHU players going to Spurs

You are right,we have done it for years.Especially Arsenal. John Radford and Stewart Robson come to mind.They wasn't the players they were,otherwise we wouldn't have signed them.Robbo could have been has good has his name sake Bryan,but injuries meant he couldn't reach nowhere near the level he got...

Re: WHU players going to Spurs

Well that hit a nerve! Me calm down? You're the only one losing his rag here.... And that therefore simply begs the question why would you lose your rag if you weren't one of those booing him.... or don't resent him (which isn't quite the same thing)? I’ve never booed a player in my life, lampard, ...

Re: WHU players going to Spurs

So Carrick had all his future ahead of him, whereas Parker was in the twilight of his career. Had Parker not been toiling with a clogging bunch of losers (as defined by the fact we were relegated - the league doesn't lie), maybe that prat Cappello, might have taken him to the World Cup....and what ...
