    there hasnt been much talk of who people would like to see in this thread like past transfer threads

    That's because I change my mind every day as I do further research and try to second-guess what direction Lambert might go in.

     

    Right now I'd "like" to see:

     

    LB: Fabrice N'Sakala (Troyes)

    CB: Bruno Ecuele (Lorient)

    CM: Marco van Ginkel (Vitesse)

    W: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqfmakUcQNQ(Bastia)

    ST: Cenk Tosun (Gaziantepspor)

     

    But as I say, this list could change tomorrow!

     

     

    I bow to your superior knowledge Wes and i'm sure they are all great players but I can see the bulk of our signings being from the lower leagues in England. Young, hungry and ambitious. I think we may look at 1 or 2 continental signings but not all of them.

    GK

    out: Given and Marshall

    in: either Boaz Myhill or Wayne Hennessey (as cup and second choice)

     

    CB

    out: Dunne

    in: Abdoulaye Ba (or Robert Huth)

     

    CM

    out: Makoun, Ireland & Bannan

    in: Adel Taarabt

     

    CF

    out: Bent & Delfouneso

    in: no idea! (id like Bas Dost but i know it would never happen)

     

    We'll be going backwards if do that! 

  3. oh and you can cut the sexual tension with a knife in here. To borrow a phrase from our resident snowboarder, good lord.

     

    Really? I thought it was just a load of blokes fawning over the few female posters in some vain attempt to get noticed by them?

  4. Has anyone ever changed money at birmingham airport? Found a really good rate online if you order beforehand and pick up on the day?

     

    i've ordered money on-line (and paid for it) and picked it up at Travelex at Brum airport before. Worked like clockwork. All I needed to do was show them the card I had paid for it with.

  5. Watched American Psycho.

     

    Really enjoyed it, despite not really knowing if I understood it totally or not!

     

    Did he actually commit the murders? I kind of assume he did given Dafoe's character being around. But the last scene with the lawyer kind of made me think he might have dreamt it all, or maybe he wasn't even Bateman at all.

     

    Or that we were seeing him through his own eyes if you like. How he saw himself. Whereas everyone else thought he was a loser

     

    Read the book... the film is PG compared to the 18 rating of the book

    Off Topic seems to be getting a little seedy and weird now with all the 'in jokes' and cliques.

     

    Now?

     

     

    Maybe its just more noticeable to me now as I probably don't spend as much time on here as other people. 

  7. Wigan have to win... even a draw isn't good enough. Hopefully they'll take the game to Arsenal and then Arsenal will tear them apart on the counter. Arsenal need to win as well so its not as though its a nothing game for them.

     

    I'd like to think Arsenal won't bottle it...

  8. Delighted for Wigan! Don't get the hate for them on here at all? They play decent football and I do like Martinez. Yeah, Whelan can be a bit of a tool sometimes but a lot of football owners / chairmen can be! Man City are the epitome of what is wrong with football nowadays and i'm chuffed they lost

     

    I thought it was a good game and McManaman played well and a deserved man of the match.

     

    Still hope they get smashed by Arsenal though!

    Wore a pair of brogues out to an awards dinner tonight and they've completely shredded my feet so I had to sack off a night out and come home. Worn them in, even worn them out before with no problems but tonight my feet are in bits. Gutted. 

     

    Was it an awards dinner at Villa Park? 

     

     

    Nah, was at the Emirates! 

     

     

    Ah.. we had one at at VP last night. I didn't go as I'm an unsocialable word removed!
