    Sorry Kieth but HJ, the board and finance people, and more, are all 'locked in' at the Liberty; there may well be more news yet.

    Relax about Bony though Kieth, he isn't going anywhere.

    Stumpy the reporter from Sky who was at the Liberty did say that they had seen HJ leave the Liberty. Doesnt mean he hasnt gone to Lamdore though.

    Speculation ....there are no sources to theses things . Bony was ready to go , no one wanted to pay big ...everybody and their dog knows that valley .But if you want to pretend Bony was sitting back waiting to just start the season for us ... fill your boots

    I think it was more his agent, I heard (from a reasonable source close to the club) that Bony was none too happy with his agent when he had a meeting with Liverpool while Bony was on holidays

    IMO.

    Bony has clearly stated that he wants to play for a Champions League club and his agent is paid to assist him getting there.
    I would put money on it that his agent was touting him to Liverpool, probably tried to push him towards Arsenal, Spurs and Everton too (before they signed Lukaku)....that's his job.
    It's Bony's job to keep doing the business and keep schtum in the meantime, which he is doing and will do for the forseeable I imagine.
    This time nobody wanted to pay the £24m...for whatever reason, don't understand it myself as his record and performances speak for themselves (the little paranoid Welshman in me wonders whether the big clubs simply object paying that money to us...thinking us to be a small backwater club who should just roll over for them).

    Bony would be outstanding for a CL team imo.
    Maybe we can move to extend his contract with better terms and a larger release clause now (would be best for us) but I doubt it because he wants to move on up IMO.

    Monk said Bony could still go 2 days ago, I guess Monk must be an excercise in Bolloxogy ..

    Yes I agree. If I was Huw Jenkins I'd get wilf into the office, give him a hearty pay rise and a 2 year contract extension, and increase his buy - out clause to circa 45m.

    Why not?

    Bony wanted to be the highest payed player on Liverpool , Rodgers wasnt biting . If Bony would have lessened his wage demands ...the door would have hit him on the way out .

    Roof jack WTF are you on about?

    Monk was merely saying "you never know in football, if a team comes in with a ridiculous amount of dosh".

    Which is not the same as "roll up, roll up, wilf for sale".

    FFS!!!!!

    I dont know adam , cant be totally right all the time . I called the " EXODUS hours after the sacking , overall... Id say I was right . Still think Shelvey is like Bony , wanted to go .. no takers at either's asking price .
