Ok, Blackburn have moved the goalposts, but aren't the new terms still a good deal for apparently a very talented and highly rated young defender? 5 mill up front plus 4.5 in add-ons? :saha:

You like a car. You really do. Sticker price is £50K. You walk into the dealership, test drive it, and take it your wallet to pay £50K. Just as you're about to the salesman tells you "well, it's actually going to be £95K." Do you happily pay it because, hey, after all you really like the car? Or do you take the cocksuckers to court for not honoring the sticker price?

Now imagine you happily paid the 95K and you were a known and regular car buyer amongst the dealerships. Every other dealership would see that and overcharge the stupid fuck who paid 95K for a 50K sticker price.

That’s not what happened. If anyone flip flopped and reneged on their price, it’s that disgusting, exploitative cunt, Levy

Mate it was grim. Paint by numbers AVB football was actually even more turgid in ways than Conte and Mou. Plus Bale carried that 12-13 season in ways that I don’t think a winger has ever carried any football club… he was Herculean.

There was at least some hope in that we sold Elvis but bought the Beatles… it was a young squad with a lot of potential coming through… the League was a lot worse back then, there wasn’t as much money, wasn’t as much separation as well.

Now it feels like we’re going to be financially inferior and just totally dominated in the transfer market by 6-7 sides. That aspect wasn’t there as much.

but man, it was grim. It was very depressing before Poch got hired.

If anyone still has faith in Levy, they need to be booked in to a mental institution. Ange, just like Jose and Conté, for all the I don't take Bullshit talk, is also settling. Spurs is a Manager Killer.

I read last night that Joe is possibly in Hot Water for 'Insider Trading'. I pray they take the club from him and we get bought over.

We have reached a New Low. Even Usual suspect Levy Apologists, are starting to question his motives. No new CBs, with Lenglett still being mentioned in the press. I know the..... "Where'd you read it? Can you trust it? ..." argument. If it is a lie, Levy and Co should come out and say so.

Now we hear Ange say that Davies is a Good CB and can stand in at LB. Makes me question how much of a puppet he is.

We are a joke. Woolwich spending on a title chase. Villa and Newcastle spending to keep their rebuild momentum. Spurs playing football in the East when it's Monsoon season against some Sailors team that people in Singapore probably never heard of.

The fact that it’s so reasonable and they won’t do it is what is so infuriating.

When Liverpool needed a top CB they spent €84m on Virgil Van Dijk. That was in fucking 2018!!!

They overpaid but they scouted him well, identified him and did what it took to get him!

Why is that such difficult concept for this club to grasp?

And it took them two transfer windows to get it done.

My heart goes out to Mr Lewis and his family this morning at this sad time . Let us all pray that he smites his enemies with the jaw bone of an ass like Samson. I imagine he can expect no help from Daniel in his fight for justice, as Delilah has allegedly already cut Levy’s hair leaving him impotent on the sidelines.

JUSTICE FOR JOE

A valid point.
Although I don’t think it has cost us anything since the 2012/ 13 season when we dropped home points to WBA and Norwich, after starting Sandro and Livermore in the pivot, and finished 5th.

Not a valid point. On the one hand we're saying this year is going to be up and down and we'll need to be patient, because we're rebuilding and bedding in a totally new system, and on the other we're talking about missing out on CL. Which one is it?

Stupid analogy

As I said, Blackburn are most likely being twats but if we really want the player then let's just do the deal and move on.

Or do you take the cocksuckers to court

He will have at least 1 new CB by the time we play Brentford I'm sure but how close to that game that happens is anyone's guess. Frankly I can see why we wanted to move quickly on it but I'd rather we were wondering if the Maddison deal would get over the line in time at this stage rather than CB which was so glaringly the position that needed fixing the most, it feels like if you had £40m and probably damn near £200k a week to do that deal why the fuck didn't we get Tapsoba right then and there?

Because, for the 476th time, that's not how transfers work. I mean, how difficult is this to understand??
