    £35m will never get you Suarez, sorry to say <ok>

    Btw - I don't think you'll ever find a big enough gum shield for Suarez <laugh>

    The weird thing with that was they thought Mascherano was garbage and never played him

    I can't be the only one in here old enough to remember Frank Stapleton to Man Utd ?
    When he played at Highbury the following season there was sheer hatred amongst the fans, serious hatred, I swear 55,000 all sung 'You're just a greedy **** Stapleton, Stapleton' in unison....

    David Jenkins - Arsenal to Spurs in the late 60s. Worst player I ever saw!

    A lot of the bad feeling because the transfer fee was set by a tribunal.It's funny but we never had the same problem with Brady who left the season before.
    I'm old enough to remember Charlie George to Derby & Ray Kennedy to Liverpool.
    A couple of other sales I remember to Man Utd were Ian Ure & George Graham <ok>

    Cym - I think when Chippy left he went to Italy which was regarded as the best league in the world and everyone aqccepted he was going onto better things.
    When Stapleton left Utd were an average side, no better than us and the move was purely for money

    I wouldn't disagree with you there.It was such a shame they both left because we had the making of a decent team at the time.It certainly ****ed us up for a few years.

    Arsenal were '****ed up' and AW wasn't our manager? Surely, you are lying sir?

    It was Wenger's fault because at the time he'd already agreed to become our manager after he was told he'd be offered the job in another 16 years

    Gazidis is a **** too for missing out on signing Maradonna in 198O - and even though our CEO was only 4 years old at the time, that is no ****ing excuse in this day and age where you have to move fast to secure your targets <ok>

    Pat Jennings was the biggest from ourside (apart from Judas). One of the worst decisions Spurs ever made telling Jennings he was over the hill. Was the best keeper in the world at the time imo.
