When does the Piatek toy gun go on sale in the club shop?

I was getting all my info from SC so I will probably not be of use on the particulars. But I felt it was scandalous not to take a punt back then for 5M. I think we got Janssen that summer instead. And now we're going to spend at least 40M for his services now. That is if this is to be believed. Wonder if DL calculates the opportunity costs of these fuckups when he's haggling for 1 more million off random player X and wasting a whole preseason.

We didn't want to loan him back for the rest of the season, IIRC. There's always something.

Him and Ali Z both completely full of shit. In fact almost all of it is.

A few years back there were some reliable people (mostly on COYS), but after Willian there seemed to be a massive crackdown.

Ultimately why does anyone even care? Until a signing is official it’s up in the air (as with Willian). People just get their hopes up about a bunch of rumours.

Then A&C comes along as The Goat and adds some nonsense about cabbages.

Sorry if I come off like a grouch, but can we not keep all the SC-bashing to the SC thread built especially for that purpose? ...It's pretty tedious for those of us that don't actually frequent the site nor know who any of these mugs are.

Not to mention that there's the irony of both giving them traffic and boosting their public profile(s) by talking about them.

That’s a fair point.

Again, Todd would like to express his sincere regrets for the misattribution. He would like you to understand that there was no malice intended. But I'm starting to doubt his word on matters pertaining to you.

But he does occasionally reminisce of the genre of football's golden vintage time of parsimonious tactical perfection that was circa 1985 Serie A, a time unfettered by gauche things like goals and crass displays of self indulgent individuality and whatnot.

Now you're talking. Where do we sign up for some of this? Does Rai even still exist? I might still have a pair of aluminum (that's right I said it!!!!) foil rabbit ears for the old black and white. Let me just give my granddad a call.

Then something has to give.

Either they prove you and many others wrong or they step aside for new owners.

We look like a haunted and empty version of 2 years ago.

Somehow I don't think scott scott having a little whinge on the interweb's gonna nudge ENIC towards selling up any time soon. I'm quite content that they wouldn't be too kneejerk to listen beyond the din.... It's not like a lot of the whingers weren't whinging their ass off when we were in better shape a few years ago.
 
Didn't catch who, but one of the main tabloids being interviewed on TS just said the the Piatek deal is as good as done. £28m.
 
I know the Sun is bullshit, but they are printing the news on their (sports) ‘front’ page (at the bottom), so maybe there is more to it after all
