  1. Excluding Grealish who's under 21, the first team squad of Guzan, Bunn, Steer (3) Cissokho, Richardson, Bennett, Amavi (4) Okore, Senderos, Baker, Clark (4) Richards, Hutton, Bacuna (3) N'Zogbia, Gil, Cole, Sinclair (4) Gueye, Sanchez, Westwood, Gardner (4) Kozak, Agbonlahor, Ayew (3) has 25 players. So if you want to add Angel Crespo, a new CB, Cambiasso, Praet, and Adebayor in there, you have to exclude five of the current squad. I struggle to see us getting rid of five of them (think we'll see Steer, Cissokho, and Baker leave), so I think we'll might only make 2 or 3 more signings. Edit: can't add.
  2. The video shows there's no dotted line near his hand. He's bloody trying to change the terms of the contract, the snake.
  3. I think Nathan is a solid squad player who, with a bit of maturity, could be a great asset to the club. Look at how much Ciaran Clark has developed over the past 12-18 months. If we were buying him for a couple of million I'd think it was good business. Unless a replacement is lined up, selling Baker for a small fee would be very a bad move imho.
  4. Hey Jude-themed song, surely? Edit: I miss a few pages, already been suggested.
  5. One of the guilty used to be a policeman in Northern Ireland. I never would have thought policemen in Northern Ireland could be bigoted rocket polishers.
  6. Very sorry for your trouble, Stewie. Shite situation. Fingers crossed the other job works out for you. Have a think about chatting with Citizens Advice etc. Worst scenario is they tell you've don't have a case, which you won't have anyway if you do nothing.
  7. Rumour has it he was born at 7:14pm. As in 74 minutes after 6pm. 18:74.
  8. Not all homosexuals are Egyptian. He was only wondering if the weather would be gay.
  9. Did I miss something? Is Adebaydonkey available for £25k a week? Is this some dodgy Wonga deal that'll come back to bite us in the ass? The reports are that Spurs just want rid of his £100k wages. How true it is I don't know, but that's what I was working off.. So that's £5m total. £25k a week + £3.5m is (just under) £5m. As Trent said above, it's how much total we have to pay to get him, not just the weekly wage. Mind you, I'd rather we pay a fee and £25k a week wages so that none of other players get the idea that they could earn £100k a week.
  10. We sold Andi Weimann for £2.5m and he was reportedly on £25k a week. Would I pay £3.5m and £25k a week (one year deal) for Adebayor? Absolutely I would.
  11. About 50,000 people were born every year in the 1930s in Ireland. In the 1950s, i.e. about the time these people were becoming adults, 40,000 people emigrated from Ireland every year.
  12. Because Spurs have players who are better than Adebayor and only have so many places in the squad.
  13. It won't sit in the bank though. Say we owe Nice £10m for Amavi. If we have to pay that today, we write a cheque for £10m today. But if we have to pay that in two years and we can get an interest rate of 5.4%, we only have to put £9m in the bank today and it will turn into £10m by the time we have to pay. Saves us a million quid. Same goes in reverse when we're selling. Of course Liverpool want to phase it over however many years. Now you're of course right that the money's not just going to sit in the bank but the point that the timing can matter still stands.
  14. Never heard of him, but he sounds like a right prick. Think he used to play for the Villa. I seem to remember he said he was loyal to us before buggering off to some other club. I really hope no other club comes knocking on the door for him. Thankfully, with how little time he's had on the pitch this season, that seems very unlikely.
  15. Not saying it's definitely true or anything, but a Google search of "javi hernandez salary" says he's on 90k a week.
  16. Modern fan (Villa fan?) syndrome right there. He's right though unless Fox put a buyout clause of £8m and a new training kit in his contract. I know you're only joking but it's unfair to blame Fox for Delph's departure. It's much, much more likely that Delph demanded it than Fox thought it was a good idea.
  17. Lads the timing does of course matter. Suppose they offer to pay half (£16.25m) today and the other half in a year. That £16.25m sitting in the bank for a year will earn in the region of £500k-£1m in interest. That's enough to pay a decent player's wages for the year.
  18. That's a relegation side. Agreed on maybe three of them. But Given and Cissokho would walk into sides better than us (Stoke/West Ham/WBA type teams). And Vlaar, Delph, Cleverley, Benteke will all play for sides pushing for Europe.
  19. Fabian Delph, you're a w*nker, you're a w*nker. Fabian Delph, you're a w*nker, you're a w*nker Fabian Delph, you're a w*nker, you're a w*nker. Fabian Delph, you're a w*nker, you're a w*nker. Fabian Delph, you're a w*nker, you're a w*nker. Fabian Delph, you're a w*nker, you're a w*nker. Fabian Delph, you're a w*nker, you're a w*nker. Fabian Delph, you're a w*nker, you're a w*nker. For ninety minutes, yes?
  20. Given Lowton Vlaar Cissokho (apparently) Delph Cleverley Weimann Bent Benteke (surely) That's the basis of an alright side. Edited to add: and eight out of the nine have played for their country. This summer is really make or break for the whole club.
  21. A mate of mine got arrested for thinking that.
