It's pretty certain that something has to happen tomorrow, I really can't see the window closing without us getting someone. TF is a business man and the Premiership is where the money is. Hopefully we'll all be pleasantly surprised tomorrow. I should point out that I suffer from chronic optimism.
DT - the bald midget crock and the bigger not so bald crock will not play more than 10 games between them the rest of this season. They are just not good enough nor injury-free enough. Your ignorance and blindness to this fact is truly mesmerizing. Get back on the Absinthe and keep tinkering with that new club badge.
So you keep telling. Bet your face look lot like that nige's face below your message......We have now three top players out for probably rest of the season. This something that dont often happen to just one of the top teams. So if i were you i would fear something to happen too.... Yes our second best scorer is Matt Phillips with three goals.
Why should I fear something to happen any more than I normally would? :S So you're pretty much reliant on him. Our 7th top scorer has 3
Think you've outstayed your welcome. Haven't you got a team to follow or is it so boring you have to stay here?
I said it at the start of the season. we are stupid to rely on him with no back up despite paying nearly 100k a week to the Fulham pair. now we have to sign someone like rhodes or our season is down the pan. we have 24h to do so, so in a way its happened at the right time. redknapp and beard should hang their heads in shame unless we get a top quality replacement.
Rhodes is not a panic buy, SWP, zamora and Barton were panic buys as they were all worthless despite us wasting 25m on them when no one else would take them on a free. we have a choice, buy someone big and keep our season on course or play the Fulham cripples who will last 3 games and then have no striker for the rest of the season ensuring wed be lucky to make the playoffs
I feel I must be missing something given that no one has mentioned this yet but is there any way at all we can get Remy back? How about getting Adel back as well? Only did I post on an article about why I didn't want to get him back but desperate times...
no chance, both are loans with a fee paid. we need 2 forwards, at least 1 must be proven and 1-2 defenders.
I was assuming Simpson and Faurlin. I may do a little dance if its Barton. Loving the board tonight, panic, angst, spend spend spend mentality writ large. Great stuff.
I'd like to think that we already have deals sorted bar 'dotting i's and crossing t's' - but have to admit I don't have the faith with out set up. If not it is crazy to let journo rumours force your hand 24 hours before the deadline and ending up paying over the odds. Let 'em think what they want (they do anyway) and get your deals sorted then let the news out. Crazy situation and worst case scenario with Simpson and Austin. Not looking good!
We're going to need Barton. As for the spending, I'm not really fussed. Time for Redknapp to manage with what he's got.
Just where I'm sitting, Stroller. The bail out of the owners wallet should not be automatically available. Can we be promoted with the rest of the season 0-0 draws?
