    Knew that was coming.

    I’m sure our illustrious transfer team will have a range of alternatives lined up.

    The big 6 are simply unstoppable under the current rules and nothing is ever going to change.

    While I agree with you, we can't do much about a buy-back clause, except buy him last bloody summer. Bit late for that now...

    Miley is going to be sold apparently.

    It's going to invoke tears no doubt because we're not bringing players in.

    I saw that and think it's bollocks. We can't lose another midfielder after Sean has left. Bruno will probably pick up an ACL against Celtic anyway

    you come across like you really hate our club at times mate. I’d spare yourself the mental torture and go support Chelsea or something as it will be less trauma.

    I would imagine you're right on both aspects of this post.

    I'm starting to think we're going to get very little this summer in terms of signings, because we have absolutely no pulling power whatsoever at this point.

    You’re just one little pot of optimism, aren’t you.

    We can be upbeat and positive, but it won't change the rules unfortunately.

    Simons to Arsenal so cross that one off your lists.. Only a muppett would have thought that one would happen, but the gulf in quality between nufc and the big 6 grows by the day.

    We’re a shambles at the top. And what will happen, who’ll be accountable? ****ing no one. Eales will leave and someone else will appear. I presume he hasn’t been dancing at the stack this summer?

    Should’ve had Trafford signed a ****ing year ago. Who knew after the takeover we’d still have issues with the leadership.

    I'm sure we were told who was in full control now.? I'm certain they'll blame Mitchell or someone else though. Me? I'm blaming the rules tbh.

    I mean, what is going on? Failure after failure, after failure... I've never known anything this bad... Even Ashley could sign a player if we wanted to.

    We need Staveley back because Howe clearly isn't pulling anyone and she had something about her that the current lot don't.. They're all like rivita I suspect! dull and useless at negotiating.

    Staveley was bold she sold the dream, but Howe etc are too afraid to do that and sell a challenge.
