Isn't Tommy Smith a bit old now. I recall him coming up against Norman Hunter & chopper Harris all those years ago. I know weve got a few older guys, but really!!!!
Just cos we are getting taken over doesn't mean we can just spend as much as we want, I want to get back to the prem but I don't want to be in or anywhere near the situation we where in under ridsdale! Imagine signing players on 30k per week 4 year deals then whoever it is taking over gets bored and pulls out of the club = absolutely shafted
The Bates regime plus spending 3-5million on players also keeping our best players wouldve got us promoted
Morning all Could today be the day? I'm actually not going to be checking every five minutes today, if it happens it happens
I'll believe these significant developments when I see them. But YW's 2nd Post above points the way ahead. His 1st post above points to a return to L1 if there is now a rush to spend regardless of the possible consequences.
Should White be our highest paid player on £15k pw? No! Should he get half of that? Debatable, but probably yes. Where are all these clubs that are desperate to sign him? Why has he not snapped up one of these magnificant offers already on the table? Answers on a postcard!
Interesting tweets which mean I can get some work done today if true ... Raymond Hankin ‏@raymondhankin Spoke to Neil Warnock this morning in Boston Spa on his way to Thorp Arch. He said there will be NO announcement today on the TO NW said he had an offer from #nffc and that he could go there tomorrow but wants to stay at #lufc as he loves the fans NW said he wanted the TO to happen ASAP and it was not a case of keeping the deal quiet so other clubs could up transfer fees
Even if Warnock was given stupid amounts, he's not the kind of manager who'd go out and blow it all on a few players, he'd spend it wisely on a lot more players, who he knows could do a job for us. Having said that, I will be disappointed if we don't sign Neymar.

England now 4th in FIFA rankings - I saw at least 8 better teams than just us in that tournament. FIFA seem as incompetent as the FA are!
Thom Kirwin ‏@Thomkirwin You can hear an interview I've done with Neil Warnock after 11am today on @Yorkshireradio #lufc Not much on the takeover apparently though
At one point a couple of years back, the USA were also fourth in the fifa rankings, so that should tell you how accurate they are
