    Except that Vin's statement is regarding, and clearly states, "Not 606" rather than your argument. Thus your point doesn't really make sense in the context you're providing. I thought of all people you'd have been on point about that......

    It's replying to something FLT said to me, clearly the implication is that he agrees with FLT's point. Keep up.

    Yet you're quoting Vin. I'm perfectly up to speed. As the absolute prince of not letting people leave anything up to interpretation and only allowing absolutes to possibly be considered, I'm rather surprised that clearly that steadfast rule doesn't for some reason apply to you. Oh well.

    Enthusiasm for the new project, yeah. I reckon he's waiting to see if he'll have to sell his best players. And it obviously also depends what other offers are open to him. The love affair/marriage analogy only really works for supporters. I don't really expect loyalty if our ambition doesn't match his, and I don't think he'll stay for the love of a club in a (to him) foreign city with a funny name. Although Southampton is a very attractive town in one of the nicest spots in England, so who knows.

    I'm afraid I've completely lost track of what you're trying to say. Unless it's that I'm a contemptible hypocrite. That message is coming through pretty clearly.

    If you want to continue this then PM me with a clear message, I've no appetite for this back and forth stuff.

    Lighten up - it was a little joke about his comment and his comment alone.

    I know it's in your nature to assume that every comment that you disagree with is in some way aimed at you but, if you're interested, I hadn't even noticed what the post said to which he responded. I certainly hadn't noticed it was yours. Apologies if it upsets you that we don't all hang on your every word...

    Keep up.

    No, it's just becoming clear that nobody is allowed to possibly have any hint or inclination of 'grey area' when dealing with or debating with you, but that reading the above it's fine for you to do so. That's cool, as long as we know.

    I didn't assume it was aimed at me. I said it was a comment about something that was. I have no beef with you, only with LTL's bizarre tangent.

    Oh so it wasn't sarcasm?

    Set a new, ambitious project with a new DVD and then persuade the players to stay. It doesn't work the other way round!

    A new DVD, that's what we need. Although isn't that technology now obsolete?

    That doesn't say your comment was aimed at me.

    Let's recap: He said what I was saying was black and white and he was saying there can be a grey area. You said everything is black and white here. I said there are shades of grey (in what I was saying) if one is able to perceive them, implying that FLT is not.

    If we have crossed wires then I apologise for my part in that, but as far as I'm concerned the misunderstanding has been cleared up and that's the end of it.

    Blimey. Which part of this didn't you understand? I've highlighted the relevant bit for you.

    "Lighten up - it was a little joke about his comment and his comment alone.

    I know it's in your nature to assume that every comment that you disagree with is in some way aimed at you but, if you're interested, I hadn't even noticed what the post said to which he responded.

    Watch out next time you go into a phone box that you don't end up in a fight.

    Actually, here's what you want to hear. You're utterly, totally correct, PTF.

    I seem to have lost the plot again, what was it Ralph actually said and what does it mean?

    He said we want to keep our best players. He meant we might not.

    In reality, this is both true and also should not be shocking news to any one of us.
