You bastard dumbarse!

Yes you are misreading it. My point is that he has not been picked up by one of the premier league clubs, we obviously decided as a lub what we felt he was worth, but we had a bunch of panty-wetters on here saying we should just up our offer to any level to secure his signature. Fact is we have no idea if he is that good or not. Can anyone on this board say they've watched him more than, at most, half a dozen times? But they all know better than a professional scouting network (not just ours).

Ironically, I reckon Bruce has never actually watched the keeper we've bid for play live at all.

I thought SB also said on RH that he liked Adomah and would be interested in Nolan

You bastard dumbarse!

What? Did I do it again?

 

[South West 'Ulltra]

Judging by Bruce's comment - I think there's more than an interest in Nolan. Said "no comment" and "that's for you lot to find out" when asked about giving Nolan a phoe call.

He said there was nothing in the Adomah rumour. He made it quite obvious that he is interested in Nolan, and just as obvious that he's been in contact with him. Personally I'd love to see Huddlestone on the pitch one last time, alongside Nolan who'll be shoving sticks of dynamite up his arse! That'd wake the ****er up.

@PJBuckingham: Two clubs have bid for Nikica Jelavic, hence his absence. "Come Tuesday I would expect him to be gone," says Steve Bruce [HASHTAG]#hcafc[/HASHTAG]

Let's get an auction going!

Agree. We really missed him and Huddlestone today. Get both the ****ers on eBay.

So, which striker are we going to sign if Jelavić does move on?

 

[Brucebones]

Let's get an auction going!

Well if Norwich are involved they'll start at £2000

I reckon its them and Wham

Ideally Gayle, realistically nobody

 

[Willson]

Also first bid rejected for Jela, so there can't be a cheap buyout

 

[Jeff Lynnes PBCW™]

They may not have to meet the buyout if we want rid

 

[Willson]

Agreed, I imagine we just want our money back

 

[originallambrettaman]

We haven't got a prayer of getting our money back, we'll do well to get half of it back.

 

[Jeff Lynnes PBCW™]

I'd be surprised if the release is as high as what we paid. Suspect Nolan will want a high salary so getting rid of jela at cut price may be the only way Bruce can swing it with the Allams

 

[Willson]

Oh yeah completely forgot it was £6.5M, thought it was a lot less. I imagine £3M would get him

I still think £3.5m for a proven PL goal scorer is pretty cheap (Even though his knees are goosed)

 

[Amin Arrears]

£3.5m is too cheap. Where were these proven premier league players for £3.5m when we wanted one eh?

And a stricker no less.
