Really go **** yourself and put me on ignore. If you want to say something to me send me a message next time. Until then the ignore button your best option.

You aren't a troll or stupid, and sometimes post interesting things that are worth discussing, that doesn't mean that it isn't time to speak up about your annoying habit. Other people have mentioned it too, so instead of sulking, maybe just keep in mind that we don't really care about obscure players or rules from the MLS.

Steve Cotterill said Bristol had a £3.5m bid rejected for a player and were quoted £7m by his parent club. Their fans seem to think it's Gray

Complimentary Youtube footage of Hayden in Arsenals 2014-15 pre season. He looks very comfortable on the ball, perhaps a direct replacement for Chester? I must admit I've heard but not seen too much of him and obviously youtube isn't much to go on, but I he certainly looks capable of playing in the Championship. Stick a buy out clause in there, he's only got 2 years left on his deal.

With a bit of luck this means another club has finally spotted Alex Bruce's unique talent set and put in a multi-million pound bid....or maybe not

Look man (I don't know if you are) I get it, you all don't care about the MLS. I stopped updating the MLS thread and stopped asking if quill or a couple others were watching games. Lately people have been seeing the initials and then flipping out. I'm not going to stop talking football on here and if something is interesting from another league I'll say it. If you don't like that or anyone else really then the ignore button is your best option. If you have a problem then send a message to me. If you are just going to flip out every time then go **** yourself, if you understand that I am not trying to be an ass and have avoided talking exclusively about it ( like in the MLS thread) then don't put me on ignore. It's up to you really.

tl;dr

Don't bring the MLS up when there's no good reason to, and there'll be no problem. :)
 
It wasn't the lack of responses I that provoked my needy whine, it was a reply to the first four posts that sarcastically suggested I was peddling old news. But this is the only forum I visit, I can hardly be blamed for not knowing people had already read about it elsewhere.

It started because of the strange situation where we made a bid that hit their release clause and they have 21 days to find a higher bidder. I was just,posting an example of a situation that I know of where something like that can occur so I don't feel there was not a reason to. I won't post things like it that are not in someway connected to the topic. That's about all i will promise you.

My brother just got back from the US and brought me back an LA Galaxy shirt, it's pretty smart.
 
The guy lives in America and (correct me if I'm wrong Ellewoods) adopted Hull City as his team of choice. Of course he's going to mention the MLS, what other source of knowledge do you expect him to draw upon if he is reletively new to the English game? Yes, he does mention the MLS a fair bit, but as an American fan of football, I'd be a little concerned if he didn't.

Mr. Hat said:
Whilst we're talking about rules, everyone is aware that the FA take a cut of ALL transfer fees? I think they pocket 10%. So these figures we're seeing for Brady, Chester and Ince, are cut down by the league, any clauses they might have in their contracts, so much being spread over a few years in small increments and probably a sizeable chunk in addons. Plus any tax payable, no idea how things like VAT and what not are worked in football, Ricardo? So we most definitely do not have £19m odd in the bank to piddle about with.

I don't know how they quote transfer fees. You should say £10m when it's £10m + £2m (=20% VAT) but I'm sure some people try to quote the £12m to make it look more.
