Well done to Daws, might not be a view shared by Levy.

King Bassong Nelsen and Corluka have gone - we've got in JV, NAUGHTON and Caulker back from loan

I've probably missed something, but it seems about a neutral balance in wages and fees, given Bassong and Corluka were on loan

As long as players like JV and Gallas are happy to be versatile, we wouldn't need Fryers, though at a cheap price would still like him in.

I said better in the quote of mine you're referring to. QPR and Stoke are both bottom half teams, I think Dawson and Huddlestone are good enough to play for sides in the top half. Whether my team stuggled at the start of one season is irrelevant because I was talking about QPR. You went for the petty dig which had nothing to do with anything so don't pretend you had a point, you were just scorned at your club being considered not good enough for a player of Dawson's quality.

You're contradicting yourself now mate, try to keep up. You can't call us a bottom half club based on last season, then tell me I can't bring up the fact a couple of seasons ago you were a bottom half club!! Try thinking before you reply next time...........
 
Glad to see Dawson is staying, especially with Kaboul out. Good luck to him. I hope he wins over AVB and Levy, because from a fan's POV, he's been a good player, a good man and a loyal one. Having just lost our captain, losing our other best captain material seems like a bad idea.

It really is inexplicable why we can't get our players to leave and Arsenal can't get theirs to stay. <whistle>

A couple of seasons ago we finished 5th, three seasons ago (2010) we finished 4th. So whichever season you are referring to, we were nowhere near bottom half of the table. Indeed both seasons we qualified for Europe via the Lge, as we did last season.

If I was to rank clubs in size I would go Utd, Pool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Spurs, City

But after this season I think I'll be ranking City higher than us, and if people said they were already bigger than us I wouldn't put up much of an argument.

The enormous achievements and huge fanbase of Pool over the past 50 years for me means it'll take a while for Chelsea or City to overtake them. I'd say they're closing in fairly rapidly on Arsenal though.

For me (ATM) it would be:

United, Chelsea, City, Arsenal, Liverpool, Newcastle, Spurs at the moment. I think if City can add another PL and a CL to their name they'll definitely be bigger than us.

I think at current one of the only ways you can measure a club is who a player would rather sign for as well as home and away attendances + recent trophies won. Club mentality plays a part as well as global fanbase

The season you were talking about was 4 seasons ago and we weren't bottom half, we finished 8th.

Since you're clearly struggling for bottom half "facts", 5 seasons ago we finished 11th. Unfortunately it's still not a contradiction because I never said we hadn't finished in the bottom half before, largely because there was no reason to as it had nothing to do with anything.

So lets clear things up. In my opinion Dawson could play for a top half side, which you're not, hence my surprise that he'd move to you. Looks like he might turn you down though so maybe he feels the sameway.
