  1. I think there ws an awful lot going on with Djembe Djembe off the pitch that had an influence on his time at Villa.
  2. Van Basten was the best striker in the world during his pre injury AC Milan days, Denis could never claim that.
  3. Perfect stream and villa talk, occassionlay checking grimsby's score on bbc
  4. No, don't think so, the work is on the track in the south of the city so the new street to villa stretch should still be by train, i hope!
  5. Just checked. Trains are 1004 and 1104 from Bescot to Witton, 13 min journey. 1426 out of Witton back, 14 min journey. Aston is 3 mins different. There are no additional "Football Specials" on Sunday btw. The London Midland website says there is!
  6. It's not though. Glaston's figures are based on the meejia's gross figures. It does not take into account signing on fees, loyalty bonuses , structure of repayments, agent fees, sell on clauses (Diarra!), accrued wages (etc) Take Michael Turner. He was reportedly sold for 7 million, yet Hull only received 2.5 million net. I doubt the final profit on these 4 transfers would be anywhere near 40 million net. I'm sure the agents fees in any of Harry's transfers wouldn't have been too high, I'd imagine he would only deal with the most honest and respectful of gentlemen, knowing his role as the protector of young children's ears and the one last crusador against the vindictive taxman.
  7. If that was what I'd said, then I'd agree with you. But sadly for you I didn't say that it should be forgotten about. Instead I said that the motivation for Harry to dupe the taxman of 40k is pretty hard to fathom when the guy is a multi-millionare and earns 40k every 3 or 4 days. In other words, I'm suggesting that the charge may a face-saving crock of shit to try and justify months of investigation, and I won't be surprised if Harry wins the case. PS. 40k is 5 figures, not 6 Ps, i said that it was a six figure payment (£180,850), that is six figures not 5. 40k is the amount of tax due, understand? As for the need for him to conseal the money, it isn't hard to fathom - greed.
  8. Here So I think its fair to say he isn't responsible for the position Portsmouth find themselves in but to say there troubles have "very little to do with Harry" is also not quite accurate either. So Harry makes a 19% profit on a house sale in 10 months during a property boom era. Plenty of people have done that, or better than that, depending on how much of a bargain price they paid for the property in the first place, but apparently in Harry's case it's a criminal offence. Nor is it unusual pay a large wage to a player signed on a Bosman, first because there is no additional transfer expense (fee) involved and nor thus does the player get a cut of any transfer fee (because there is none) as they otherwise would do if they hadn't officially requested a transfer amd were still under contract. You say "Redknapp's honesty is currently in question and subject to legal proceedings". But in fact he is only facing a charge concerning an alleged 40k in tax evasion - nothing to so with transfers or corruption. 40k is probably what he earns every 3 or 4 days, so the chances of his being concerned to dupe the taxman over such a paltry (for him) amount seem pretty low to me. And this is the best they could come up with following months of (politically-motivated) investigation. I won't be surprised if the prosecution case collapses under the weight of it's own pompous bollocks. How dare HM Custom and Excise take issue with an undeclared 6 figure payment! Don't they know who he is! Thats an insignificant amount to him so it should all be forgotten about! Delusion
  9. Harry would never put a team in financial difficulties, in fact, with his astute transfer knowledge he makes each club rich beyond their wildest dreams.
  10. As I said above, FROM NOW ON I SHALL NOT BE RESPONDING TO ANY COMMENT OR QUESTION ABOUT ME PERSONALLY. Let's give this policy a short-hand: Not Relevant or NR for short. I shall occasionally repeat this 'W U M' as appropriate, until either boredom sets in or postees decide they actually want to talk about football. It's your choice. How about a new Villatalk policy? When an opposing fan refuses to enter into a reasonable debate and only comes on to tell us how wonderful everything is in his own team, we ridicule him. Lets give this policy a short hand: Wind up merchand or W U M for short. We could occasionally repeat this 'NR' as appropriate, until either boredom sets in or postees decide they actually want to talk in the real world wheere everyones garden is not so rosey.
  11. Every Spurs player is a massive success. When they leave their careers are finsihed We make a massive profit on every player we buy and sell.
  12. That is not fair. You need to go easy on him. Afterall he did tell us that SWP was in advanced stages of negotiation with spuds Oh yeah, how do you think its going? Glaston, when do you expect that deal to be concluded? Maybe just after Richard Dunne makes his first appearance for them?
  13. What the feck happened to this then? Them COYS ITKers have a 100%, faultless, perfect record on matters like this I thought. Maybe he's stuck with 'the real' Tuncay (who we had signed according to them) in the Twilight zone. I think the answer lies within!
  14. Seems a bit on the mean side to me. Do you expect anything else from them? We all know that Harry is always very insistent of paying every penny of tax due.
  15. If they have money, they might want to fix the guttering that MOTD had to apologise for as it looked like it was raining. Small Heath, small time..
  16. Must say Joey, good to have a realistic Spurs fan who admits that not all the players are world class but has at the same time has pride in his team. This thread might be taking a new direction!
  17. I don't care what spurs fans do with their forums. As long as they don't go spouting about their wonderful ITK crap from pathetic sources. Its not hard become a member of COYS and it is a big let down when your there. I was a member for a couple of weeks before Glaston reported me for being a villa fan and got me banned, fairly hypocritical I thought, especially as joined in debate about Spurs players instead of provoking others and trying to claim that Villa were amazing. This was the email I got: Let them carry on their own little secret society!
