    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.

    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!

    '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!

    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.

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

    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 :p

    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!

    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.
