The assertion was that we just paid whatever was asked...or more, ffs

Its a valid example of what a load of bollocks that claim was

People have picked worse players when given a shit load of money to spend...

David Rozenhal - £2.9mil
Joey Barton - £5.8mil
Abdolaye Faye - £2mil
Jose Enrique - £6.5mil
Habib Beye - £2mil
Alan Smith - £6mil

25.2mil
Exactly, this proved he had no vision, still went for the same mould of player, (down on his career) and a shoulder to cry on (using that as motivating tool). Watch him leave Blackburn in the shit like he did with us in around 4 years time.
Sir Nut, we haven't met yet, but I've been reading your posts from afar for a few weeks now, and I'd just like you to know that I think you're full of shit.
Another moron who states your full of shit then nothing else, im reading the full of shit part then am expecting a load of reasons (constructive to why im full of shit), but there's nothing but a full stop and loads and loads and loads and loads of white space!

Not enough white space for most.

In the excellent book Why England Lose, they recount a story from Sven about his efforts to sign Vieri for Lazio, after being quoted 50 billion lire:
(Lazio chairman Sergio) Cragnotti: "That's a lot of money."
Eriksson: "I know."

Atletico said they might accept some Lazio players in part-payment for Vieri.

Cragnotti: "Can we do that?"
Eriksson: "No, we can't give away these players."
Cragnotti: "What shall we do then?"
Eriksson: "Buy him."
Cragnotti: "OK."

Eriksson recalled in Zurich: "He didn't even try to pay 49. He just paid 50."
This is pretty much how I imagine the Danny Shittu/Zat Knight/Johan Elmander/Fabrice Muamba discussions went. I mean if you recall the Allardyce negotiations would go on for absolute AGES before we finally got our man, if we did at all. Then all of a sudden we were getting £5 million+ players on short notice. Don't know what changed.


Elmander was valued at 15M in the January window so you could say even with him we got him half price
Are you being serious here? I truly hope not.
Iv been reading your posts now for about 2 minutes and you ARE full of poo! Players arnt valued at that price for nothing, he is a world class player and playing with a goalscorer you will see his true attributes come through. Now he is having to run around like an idiot trying to get appreciation from the fans, if theres nobody to feed and link up with how can you do your job.

I haven't come from anywhere, dear boy - I'm just aware of your reputation and indeed your true identity. I'm amazed you haven't been banned already.

Your aware of my reputation from forum wums, people who search the site everyday because they have nothing else better to do with their time, if you notice i mainly only come on the site after a Footballing event, mainly a Bolton one. 99% of my posts are football and Bolton related, yes i might repeat some points but i like to get my point across, now..... you my friend have just come and slated me just of reputation, nothing to do with football. When you start coming out with words like WUMage, it only means your either a spotty little teenager or a forum geek who has been around the block :wink:
