    Our aggressive is like David Haye in the lead up to his fight with Wladmir Klitschko or a curry without the required heat. No follow through.

    its gourcouff who's been offered to arsenal not gouffran, and he does only have 6 months left on his contract were not going to start too high. but i would off thought that the offer would be slightly higher.

    Find it unbelieveable that we offer 3/4million Euro for a player the club say can go for 1million Euro.. Why isn't someone there now () if we are serious ) with the money and a contract. Is this another one who we miss out on.

    This is the key point.... we clearly aren't serious.

    Derek - how much do you want?
    French- 1,000,000 Euro.
    Derek- take a fiver?

    Don't eat massively hot curries so I don't know. Possibly.

    I like them to have heat but good balanced curries should never make you cry. I'd imagine if I ever had a phal from one of the bigg market curry houses I'd be quite smeary after a fart. Maybe I overestimate how they effect you.

    The David Haye reference stands though <grr>

    This is the issue I'm afraid. Carr would say, "Goufrann is easily worth £5M, but with 6 months left on his deal, we could possibly get him for £1M". Del boys eyes light up and says "So, we low ball them with an offer of £500k-£750k"

    Whatever the fee being quoted, we will always under cut it. Which has it's advantages. But some times you've just got to stump up what the player is worth.
    Of course the other advantage for the two idiots up top, is they can say they tried they just couldn't get the right value.

    Nope. Nothing yet. We had the 41 week check up with the midwife today, and arranged for the induction to happen this Saturday morning. Hopefully it doesn't come to that. Apparently babies often come once the induction has been arranged - like the little guy is just taking the piss and wants you to think its going down to the wire.

    Here's hoping we don't have to wait til Saturday!

    Sorry, it's terrible when you get your Gourcouffs and Gouffrans in a twist. Right royally confused now lol.
    But seeing as we will sign neither, l guess it's all irrelevant really.
