    Marseille still haven't matched our offer for him. Mendy will only be going there if the price is right.

    Bang on the money for me.

    And blackcatsteve- thats how I remember the Nugent affair. He turned us down rather us doing turning him down, as soon a Pompey came sniffing.

    I understand all the reasons that he'd want to choose them over us. Think the point is that he's putting us on hold to take another call when he's doesn't have a call waiting. Either turn us down or join us, don't treat us like a puppet on a string while you wait for something else to come up. Blackcatstave has a point. Withdraw the bid and move on. He's showing no manners or respect.

    It's correct about us withdrawing our bid for Nugent too.

    PORTSMOUTH boss Harry Redknapp yesterday swooped for David Nugent following Sunderland’s decision to withdraw their £7million bid.
    Preston striker Nugent, 22, travelled to the South Coast after Pompey offered him £10,000-a-week more in wages than the Black Cats.
    Redknapp said: “He’s one of the few strikers in the lower division who'll perform in the Premier League.”
    Nugent had been holding out for a move to boyhood club Everton.
    But the Goodison side refused to match Redknapp’s bid for the England man.

    Is that not completely the players prerogative though Bri?

    Of Course it is mate. It's not respectful but well within his rights. We're the problem here not him. We need to withdraw and move on. It's about our self respect.
