    Beskitas appear to be claiming they dumped HBA rather being rejected.

    Quotes from Besiktas president Fikret Orman regarding their attempt to sign Hatem Ben Arfa have appeared in the Turkish press:

    "We had an agreement in place to sign Ben Arfa however, after doing some research we were uncomfortable with some of his actions so we decided to withdraw from the transfer."

    Who knows who's telling the truth, HBA's agent is a tool and they sound like someone who has just been dumped without warning. He is bang on the money though :biggrin:

    Thought this was a thread about Poyet and his disgusting feral antics.....

    Back on topic Benni has clearly burnt **** loads of bridges in the game through his antics over the years and clearly the Turks (who normally aren't picky')... thought he was too tainted.
    Bruce, like Allardyce takes a gamble on tainted goods and some times they come off.

    It's obvious:

    HBA = dumper
    Besiktas = dumpee
    ACS = dump truck
    Pards = big pile of steaming dump

    Sorted! <ok>

    I was going to write how monumental the fck up was from Pards in letting him go to Hull, but that's silly - Pards rightfully wanted a bad employee out of the business. Could he have managed him better? No. He tried. Ben Arfa isn't even a greenfield player, he's had it in his favour at Marseille and thrown his toys out. Pards is just a victim of being Pards. He's not horrible, just severely limited, but his problem is not one of his public believes in him.
