Well if you want Suarez then you have to have Downing too, they come as a package I'm afraid
Yep okay then, we'll loan Downing back to you as a thank you for selling Suarez to us
No, the thank you for selling Suarez to us will be the £50m you pay us

We'll give you £35m if you throw in a gumshield

£35m will never get you Suarez, sorry to say
Btw - I don't think you'll ever find a big enough gum shield for Suarez
The weird thing with that was they thought Mascherano was garbage and never played him
I can't be the only one in here old enough to remember Frank Stapleton to Man Utd ?
When he played at Highbury the following season there was sheer hatred amongst the fans, serious hatred, I swear 55,000 all sung 'You're just a greedy **** Stapleton, Stapleton' in unison....

A lot of the bad feeling because the transfer fee was set by a tribunal.It's funny but we never had the same problem with Brady who left the season before.
I'm old enough to remember Charlie George to Derby & Ray Kennedy to Liverpool.
A couple of other sales I remember to Man Utd were Ian Ure & George Graham
Cym - I think when Chippy left he went to Italy which was regarded as the best league in the world and everyone aqccepted he was going onto better things.
When Stapleton left Utd were an average side, no better than us and the move was purely for money

I wouldn't disagree with you there.It was such a shame they both left because we had the making of a decent team at the time.It certainly ****ed us up for a few years.
Arsenal were '****ed up' and AW wasn't our manager? Surely, you are lying sir?
Yacontcha!
It was Wenger's fault because at the time he'd already agreed to become our manager after he was told he'd be offered the job in another 16 years
Pat Jennings was the biggest from ourside (apart from Judas). One of the worst decisions Spurs ever made telling Jennings he was over the hill. Was the best keeper in the world at the time imo.
