Wigan launch £3 miilion bid for Ali Al Habsi

[Worthy4England]

To be fair, if my club was involved in a bitter negotiation and I had a pocket journo to hand, I'd be feeding him stories too.
If there is any truth in that though. I'd happily take less from Villa.

This.

All seems a bit too convenient to me. Surely Mcleish will go for Foster?

How many times do you recant stuff from Nixon on here as gospel????!!!!!

Now you're telling us he might spread the odd porky?

Oh dear. Don't know what to believe now.

[Lofthouse Lower]

They must have split up

It is quite simple though.

Coyle and Nixon are friends, which is why Nixon's articles re our transfers are so accurate.

But lets say Coyle can see advantage with spreading an exaggeration or half truth. Who would he use for that?

Put it this way I don't believe we've done one transfer under Coyle that wasn't first written about in the Mirror by Nixon!

And BWFC_I is the jam in their jelly roll!

errr.... you're obviously forgetting that fact that we have actually already signed Sturridge - Nixon hasn't written about that yet...

True or Nugent. God there is hope yet!

Indeed, as it's 25% more than Wigan are offering, I'd be happier to take £4m then than £3m now.

It's 33.33 recuring % higher actually Sory to be pedantic but I'm bored as hell with no football, no transfer news, no f*ck all

Depends which way you read it, unless £1m is 33.3% of £4m

£4m is 25% more than £3m, no?

Not that we're bored

Nope, Bruno has it right. £4M is a third higher than £3M - £1M being a third of £3M, equalling 33.3%

£3M is 25% lower than £4M though...

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

OK

As Wigan are offering 25% less, I'd be happier to take £4m then rather than £3m now

Aye but without knowing what the implications of that are its easy to say we should hang out for 4m!

If it meant we got David Nugent instead of a proper top level striker I'd take the £3M now and take our chances.....

[Lofthouse Lower]

Nugent surely is a top-level striker.

FFS he's got a goal-per-game international strike ratio, better than Messi, Eto'o, Rooney AND Elmander!

[Dave Sutton's barnet]

Apparently it's just as easy to say we should sell for less than our asking price.

I rather doubt the Al-Habsi fee will make the difference between Nugent and Messi.

Dear True White,
You are now among a very select few who have ever uttered those words (and been correct when doing so)

I suspect it doesn't happen very often

Looks like they may have cracked first.

[jimbo_bwfc]

Aye, but then that article is also written by James Nursey, who has made it his life mission to create, solely from his computer, Bolton interest in Cameron Jerome. I admire his persistance, if nothing else.

[TKIZ!]

James Nursey is a no-nowt divot. Cameron Jerome my aris

[m_taylor]

Wigan have signed Ali for 4mil, Good business?

I, for one, am glad you're not the chief BWFC negotiater!

So am I!

But still I'm not seeing any top level strikers knocking around the training ground!
