No-one has claimed its equal, but you cannot say one should have to commit, yet are fine when the other half doesn't commit. I am not on about all things being equal, I am on about both sides committing to a contract they both signed. Clearly I am not living in cloud cuckoo land, else Michu would still be here, which he is not. Do you reckon that Canas, and Pozuelo are happy to move on? Have you asked them? They have just been told they are no longer needed. If it was agreed by all parties, then why does the contract still remain, surely if all were agreed, it would be more beneficial for the players to have their contracts terminated, all agreeing to no pay outs, and just move on, but that has not happened has it. How many players of the spanish lot are going to leave before you realise something is clearly wrong here, now who is living in cloud cuckoo land. They ain't being told they aint wanted, or leaving, because all is rosey behind closed doors. If it was, why do we not tell Tiendalli the same? You damn right I do, I want Michu here, but he is clearly not happy here, and if I was in a job that I was unhappy at being there, I would move jobs too. Id be a hypocrite to expect him to stay here even if he is unhappy here. If it was all about the money, he would still be here, he is a passionate bloke, and clearly there is something that made him unhappy, maybe it was the sacking of Laudrup, maybe he doesn't want to play for Monk who if rumours are true, went behind the managers back. Its called loyalty, but not in the form your hoping for. Its just a different type of loyalty. But then your not me are you, so you can seriously doubt what you want, that doesn't make you right. Double standards, your talking ****, find me a post where I have shown double standards re a player leaving, if you cannot find one, then stop talking crap. What are these assumptions based on what YOU know? Please do fill us in. Bitter? Clearly.
Swanselona - this is turning into an argument not a debate so let's end it now eh? Plenty of fans will pat Michu on the back but others won't. We can't all agree on everything can we? A quick reminder. I believe you are a mod so phrases like "you are talking crap" and "You're talking ****" have got daiswan and others banned here. I for one deliberately avoid those sorts of comments and maybe you should too. I've made my views known and respect yours even if I disagree with them. I'm done with this topic.
Swanselona made his views known , equal to all posters. If all daiswan said was "your talkin crap " , he wouldnt be banned. Mods are posters to .
The tone of the posts has gradually become more argumentative because people can't seem to accept that we all deal with player departures in different ways. Fact is plenty of fans feel the same as me whilst many others are rather more ambivalent about Michu. Takes all sorts. If there's debate here as opposed to insults and arguments I'll happily join in. I'd have thought a mod would encourage that rather than insult posters, but whatever.
Lot of whinging lately , its a forum , everyone needs to grow a thicker skin and quit bellyaching about what posters post , including mods because they are posters first .. then mods, 8 .just an opinion
As roof said, i don't ban for stuff like that, but lets not forget who first brought up living in cloud cuckoo land before trying to point fingers at others You then mention respect, was it respectful to go on about double standards, especially when IMO the only one showing double standards is you with your differing stance on the commitment of a contract. Also show some class when talking to others, and it will be reciprocated, tellinv me you seriously doubt id have the same opinion if it was another player is assuming what i would do, hence a complete lack of class, hence my response of you talking crap
Let it lie...or this is going to become a game of one-upmanship. You're just trying to get the final word. Let's all go have a cool beverage in the sun and forget about Michu. It's what he's doing to us after all.
Both dragon and swanselona Are good posters and both have a point . I fight like cat and dog with swanselona over some things but in fairness i dont Think we have ever got too personal, debate gets a bit heated so etimes but thats only because they/we Are all passionate about the swans. No need to make a mou tain out of a mole Hill here, just 2 posters going at it ,thats e whole idea of a forum IMO .
Glad you're entertained Norway - we aim to please. Anyway, pointless debating further as anyone who disagrees with swanselona is "talking ****" apparently. How dare I accuse anyone of double standards when they criticise players who leave for genuine reasons but Michu is untouchable because he's a 'ledge' innit? I'm off now to flay myself with a barbed whip and punish myself for having the temerity to disagree with him. How stupid was I? Michu should be thanked for leaving us! Yes, that's it - in fact I'm going to go the extra mile. I'm off to the airport after my flaying session to make sure they roll out the red carpet for Michu - we mustn't have him hurting his little feet on that nasty concrete must we? Then I'll make sure that the cabin crew throw flower petals in the colours of his new team as he leaves the plane just to make him feel welcome. Then lastly I'll make sure that he gets the huge card I've had signed by all his former colleagues saying "Thanks for dumping us" - they were so tearful when he walked, see. After that I'll return home vowing never again to disagree with anyone here. Now THAT'S the last word.
Still waiting for you to point out where my double standards lie. Link to posts will suffice. Else, as I said, your talking **** which would be the case if you cannot prove it after all, I have no reason to edit any of my posts, so if what you say is not ****, it won't be hard for you to provide examples, where I have criticised any player for leaving the club, heck to make it any easier, it can be under any circumstances. Unless of course your blaming me for other posters viewpoints. Disagreeing is one thing, putting words in my mouth is a totally different issue, so prove your right and im wrong, or give it a rest already. Disagreeing is one thing, me and Norway have disagreed many times, but Norway doesn't put words in my mouth to try and suit his "wrong" opinions sorry norway lol lol no it aint, your still talking **** *tongue in cheek this time* You cannot sit there and say to "drop it - lifes to ****ing short pal", whilst your still harping on about it.
