    And you don't think the two are intrinsically linked?
  2. NurembergVillan
    Yes there is.

    Arguably the two most talented brothers currently playing in world football - Jerome Boateng (Bayern Munich) Kevin-Prince Boateng (Milan) Although the Tourés might have an argument with that, only one of them is genuinely top class these days.

    Great post Mike. You also missed out Michael Cunnah, another guy with superb top level experience in the industry who came and went. Makes you wonder why...

    You put £750 on one match?!

    If he were happy to forego a "loyalty bonus" I'd happily forgo a transfer fee just to free up his wages.

    I can't help but feel that for as much as we might enjoying mocking them now, that could be us in two years time.

    You can't blame Lambert for the fact that Dunne and Bent have been injured on and off for almost a year, and similarly Vlaar has missed a chunk of games too. Warnock has been in steady decline for nearly 3 years. Ireland had one good season, playing alongside Robinho, and seems to have gone into semi-retirement when Manchester City awarded him a ridiculous pay rise. The others he's inherited are, by and large, pony.

    That's debatable. The were players who are employed by a Premier League club, but that's as far as it goes for some of them.

    I agree entirely. My point was that Faulkner can't be MORE to blame than Lerner. I can't believe that Lerner is saying to PF "you do whatever you want in terms of policy and plans". They've got to be AT LEAST equally culpable if not Lerner more so.
  11. NurembergVillan
    I don't see how Faulkner's more to blame than Lerner. He doesn't scout the players either. And don't be fooled into thinking it's all coming out of Lerner's pocket - it's not. It's all being leveraged against the club as loans. Loans that are earning Lerner a higher rate of interest than he'd be getting from keeping his money in the bank.
  12. NurembergVillan
    We'd have been better off with someone advising Lerner on which manager to choose. It's something he clearly needs as he had an incredible record for hiring awful coaches at the Cleveland Browns too.

    Since MON left we've got a net spend of around £5m. Given that many of his signings have left us for free (or very cheaply) at the end of their contracts there wasn't the number of players there to be sold to raise more funds - Sidwell, Reo-Coker, Cuellar, Heskey, Harewood. Between those 5 alone that's nearly £30m of outlay with zero return. The managers that have followed MON have been working under conditions almost like no other in our division. £5m net spend across 3 years. In the Premier League. No wonder we're shit. Lerner out.

    I take no pleasure whatsoever from predicting we'll get thumped. Again.
  15. NurembergVillan
    That was your first mistake. This thread is for people to argue about how much money they think we/have or haven't got

    FWIW I've been having the same dilemma. Don't be surprised if I get the work done before the end of this summer. If you don't want full on surgery there are a few places now that do injections that last about 12 months for £100.

    They were so random Paul Lambert should've gone to Ladbrokes and put £10m on us signing them before he did it. We'd have Messi AND Ronaldo in the team now.

    "The Ukraine" "The Cameroon(s)" Any assorted addition of the word "the" to a country name. Colonial throwback bollocks. You get a beep on your phone when someone quotes you on VT? That was a rapid response!

    Hope you haven't said No just yet...

    He put a good cross in for Benteke's diving header, and two of his corners (how many did we have?) found Benteke too. His general play, though, left a lot to be desired.
  22. NurembergVillan
    We going to put his assist for their first goal into the stats?
  23. NurembergVillan
    We were waddling out for the first one too.
  24. NurembergVillan
    There'll only be one division between us next season.
  25. NurembergVillan
    Three corners, three goals.
