I would have one major problem passing for Emile but, as the PC brigade will probably jump on me, I won't mention what it is
Aye, best not.

Maybe Bob should claim the FA cup sponsor as a new signing.

We've apparently turned down Hull's bid to get Chungy on loan?

I should think so too. Could anyone even explain how loaning him out could advantage us?

He could have just turned it down - no need to be arson about like that.

I guess if he'd said he was moving anyhow and we needed his salary for a replacement we had lined up. But other than that, no advantage.

indeed - he has a broken leg - it looks like we will lose him for nowt - his wages for the next 6months or whatever might have been the little leeway we needed to bring in another target...

Hmm a loan target perhaps? Can't see his wages alone freeing up a move for a permanent transfer, like Commons. I'd rather just keep Chungy than free up wages for another loan player who will no doubt be of poorer quality.

dunno really... kinda depends if this new leg break (yes - i know it is supposed to be minor) will have the same stultifying psychological effect on chungy as the last one did! it might have blown all his new-found confidence... (see - I like to look on the bright side!!)

Assuming that Chungy is the biggest earner on the books, I'd not be upset at loaning him out if we could bring 2 forward type players in

I've read somewhere that Bolton also wanted £500k as part of the loan fee.

Young Zach and Glenville looked like a very adept unit today. Get Chungy feeding them in. That's what I want to see.
