Summer Transfer Rumour Thread.

[Beddy]

In fairness the beef didn't last long, it was mostly just us taking the opportunity to go off topic.

Mate, if that is what you want to do then go on to general chat that is exactly what that is for!!!

Apart from the Butland rumour, there seems to be nothing out there apart from the media linking us with all the usual suspects. Do you think that means we may be going after players from abroad? It's all gone very quiet.

We signing Kevin Spacey .... not bad. he can play many different roles for the team.

The people there intimidate me

Nah I just thought there was no harm in going off topic for a little while last night while everyone was in bed, definitely expected it to go back to just rumours in the morning... not that there are any!

After watching American Beauty I'm not sure I want him around our youth players

'The usual suspects' is a line from Casablanca, one of my favourite films. What a film for quotes that was!

..and also for "lines" that were not actually used in a film, but assumed to be!

 

[fran-MLs little camera]

The strange thing is that few connected with making the film regarded it as anything but another potboiler churned out at a time that stars were contracted for a certain number of films by studios.

When you get older you start to realise that things like arguing and moaning at each other are just not worth the effort.

I'm saying this calmly, not angrily.

I've had to put up with tough things in my life, more very recently, so in the end I just take a step back then try and ignore it.

Which is what I am going to do now by going to sleep.

It'd be better if RLGB wasn't spineless and actually replied to DTLW's posts with more than just "Likewise "

When you get older, you realise that making pathetic jibes at people on the internet, before being spineless and "going to bed" isn't a good look.

If you've got an issue, say it to me on the inbox. Clearly you aren't prepared to do that as since I have commented you have disappeared back into the hole from whence you came.

A few of us are always up late (regularly I see Joe posting at 3 in the morning), but xkcd references never go amiss.

Arguing on the internet at 3AM, seriously? Guys, go get girlfriends you'll be doing far more interesting things at 3AM...

Haha I wasn't arguing! Seriously though, who really cares if this thread goes off-topic? It's boring as **** when it's on topic.

RLGB and DTLW were arguing, I was trying to stir it up for entertainment, and everyone else was just watching

And it does get boring. Another day of "we might sign Butland lol!" or "we're linked with some foreign guy lol!" is tiresome.

Trust me, it's as boring as two ****s when it's off topic. Especially when there is five pages of it.

It was worth it to see Beddy use the word "beef" though...

Tiresome is a nice way of putting it.

Come on people, let's hear some more Daily Mail rumours that will never happen!

You're entitled to your opinion, but if you find this thread boring I invite you not to read it. I think I speak for most people here when I say that when I choose to read a thread about transfer rumours, I'm more interested in transfer rumours than pictures of scantily dressed girls and grunting. Lord knows there are plenty of other places on the internet where I can find those!

 

[Dan]

Good news guys - we're definitely, definitely signing Craig Gordon http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-2157672/Craig-Gordon-wont-rushed-move.html

Fair point. To be honest, I do rarely read this thread, but I came on last night and thought he conversation was amusing. And don't worry, you're not going to miss out on any transfer rumours on our account - there are plenty of people out there who seem to do nothing other than scan the web for the next half-story they can post. It'll probably get its own thread as well if it has any credence.

I have no reason to believe this won't happen now. Let's talk about how excited we are for 10 pages and look for other articles which just say the same thing in different words and don't add anything.
