    Funny this. To be honest, i'd be in the exact same boat as this poster if KLD owned other clubs and was buying players from rivals to help them fund transfers for our targets. PIF have done a poor job of organising a proper footballing structure at the club (Howes nephew is a big part of their transfer team), constantly have them close to the PSR line as they are poor sellers and are pretty prolific at lying to their fans.

    As I said, funny.

    Exactly. He was always going to play today, it doesn’t change the current situation

    I was quoting what you posted, you must have edited it as I was responding.

    Anyway, perhaps you should just do what LD told you to do.

    As Ellis Short ably demonstrated throwing lots of money at something doesn't mean it doesn't end up as a mess ...

    .... I'd guess the figures would match up' pro-rata' and they could easily end up making a dogs breakfast of it.

    At least we had our own stadium and good facilities to call our own, SJP is a shambles backstage.

    Overview
    Lyrics

    Hillbilly rock, hillbilly roll
    Stand in line and away we go
    A little bit of moonshine, a little bit of meat
    Do the hillbilly rock and roll with me, yeah
    Hillbilly rock, hillbilly roll
    Stand in line and away we go
    A little bit of moonshine, a little bit of meat
    Do the hillbilly rock and roll night, yeah
    Up on a mountain way out of town
    It's Saturday night and the folks gather round
    Bring a little bottle, but you hold on tight
    It's a hillbilly rock and roll night, yeah
    Hiya all say Ma and Pa
    Everybody's out in the yard
    Somebody's calling out, go cat go
    It's uncle Earl in his old banjo
    Hillbilly rock, hillbilly roll
    Stand in line and away we go
    A little bit of moonshine, a little bit of meat
    Do the hillbilly rock and roll with me, yeah
    Grandpa's walkin' in his rocking chair
    And grandma's pretty when she lets down her hair
    Her hair comes down, her dress goes up
    She grabs a fiddle and she peddles to the vibe
    Hillbilly rock, hillbilly roll
    Stand in line and away we go
    A little bit of moonshine, a little bit of meat
    Do the hillbilly rock and roll with me, yeah
    Well, everybody dance, everybody sing
    Squeeze that box and make it ring
    Here's a little bitty gift from Ma and Pa
    Johnny be good, it's his first guitar
    Hillbilly rock, hillbilly roll
    Stand in line and away we go
    A little bit of moonshine, a little bit of meat
    Do the hillbilly rock and roll with me, yeah
    Hillbilly rock, hillbilly roll
    Stand in line and away we go
    A little bit of moonshine, a little bit of meat
    Do the hillbilly rock and roll with me, yeah
    Hillbilly rock, hillbilly roll
    Stand in line and away we go
    A little bit of moonshine, a little bit of meat
    Do the hillbilly rock and roll with me, yeah

    It's a thread about transfer rumours, the media and speculation ...

    ... what were you expecting, Panorama <laugh>

    Anyway, why not contribute to the thread while you're on?

    And I'm not being rude btw, there must be something.

    Just wait and see mate, that's all we can do.

    What's the difference between talks and advanced talks? Between a gap and a big gap? How big?

    I really don't think they know. They have some sort of idea, but it looks more like guesswork than anything else. Nowt wrong with that either, that's their job; fill in the columns. But often that is all they are doing. They are waiting too.

    The only real fact that is not in dispute is that we and the player have agreed all personal terms. Presumably this was done with the player's current club's permission. Which would of course imply that they are open to the idea of letting him leave.

    If we can reach a fee we can afford he'll be here . If not he won't.

    I do suspect though, on the basis of no knowledge whatsoever, that one way or another, the matter will be resolved in the next week or so. Both clubs, and the player, need to know.

    That's my point in a nutshell.

    The media, or journalists at a stretch, have all these handy clickbaity catchphrases to get people talking and they work.

    They rely on what they're being told to say providing it suits the agents/clubs/etc and feeds their particular audience.

    Certain posters or poster could start an argument in an empty room. Give it a ****ing rest

    Xhaka is not the main priority right now.

    CB & GK needed at the very least before West Ham. It’s absolutely crucial.

    Us fans feel that because of the media but the club is working on all positions and targets at the same time

    True. LCB has always been the biggest priority for me. Needs sorting
