Given that none of us were disturbed from our slumber by the team or major transfer deals, I'll pick this up. We were after Todd and it looked as if he'd signed. Lawrie was seriously pissed off. Read the relevant chapter of "Diary of a Season"

I have that and have read it. Can't recall that, will check it out. That was the 78/79 season right?
 
That's what I'm dreading. It's not beyond the realms of possibility that Jose will throw the club under the bus. It has the potential to grow even more sour after his departure.

I hope not but you are right. That could happen. I would like to believe Jose isn't like that, but if that little weasel son of their chairman hears any stuff, he'll get it out there in the public domain.

I still think there are some issues behind the scenes. There's too many whispers about Black for there to be no truth in it imo.

(Not saying this is anything to do with Fonte btw, just a general observation)
 
Sergio Oliveria has been reading the forums

Sergio Oliveira has plenty of time to do so, given that he is not good enough to even crack Porto's senior side. At 24. No idea whether there was ever any truth to that rumour, but I'm happy to seize on anything suggesting that it has gone away.

I don't think Jose would do that. I've been disappointed with his attitude this season, but I haven't seen or heard anything to suggest he'd be that unprofessional in public.
 
I am starting to wonder about the influences in the dressing room. Perhaps more news/stories will come out after Jose' departs.

He most probably wouldn't be able to, if there were. NDA's are used a lot these days.

And who says agents don't destabilise players?

I'm not ruling out there may be problems with Black. But we had Fonte acting weird even before the start of the season. So even if Black is hated by players then it isn't the full reason.

You need to give a name, when posting stuff from there. So many trolls on there.
Would if I could remember, but it rang true for me only in the sense that some massive offer for Fonte hasn't appeared immediately. I assumed it would if he was being encouraged to leave by his agent. West Ham smacks of his agent looking around after Jose got pissed off.

Not me. They have offered him £75k basic and a 2.5 yr deal.
