Hahahaha, coming from one of the most derided posters on the site who also made public, personal messages out of context to try and make me look stupid.
You fucking sad desperado.
Stick to posting babble about football. The above is like shooting fish in a barrel.
You said you would prefer us to be relegated rather than sign a player. So you hate Owen more than you support us. That's astoundingly stupid, actually it's not really for you is it.
You did look stupid mr non-violence.
Loved the way you didn't publish your reply....like I said out of context. Carry on, you doing a great job of continuing to be one of the most derided posters ever. And at the risk of using the same term, the competition is even fiercer.
Joining here during the transfer window is not reflective of the place s a whole!
Actually it was Kung fu. No implied threat of violence there, much like mine.
Did he used to be at Bolton? Why doesn't he have a team?
BIIIIIIINNNNNNNNYYYYYYY!!!!
You can get a list for each league here. Not sure how accurate/updated it is though. Just use the "Change Competition" drop down to switch to other leagues:

As I remember him, Sinama-Pongolle would work quite nicely in our current system.
what's he like now?
Michael Owen, Jordy Brouwer and Emile Heskey are on the list too...
Still shit. He had one good season a few years back playing for a second string Spanish team. He paid off his own contract in the expectation of getting a new team but that seems to have backfired.
I still remember Pongolle fondly. Istanbul wouldn't have happened without him and Mellor sparking us in the second half against Olympiacos. He had a couple of decent seasons after leaving us (with Recreativo) but the last 3 seasons he's been like a journeyman moving from club to club (some on loan).
I did the double take there and went to Google the president's name. It really is Helmuth Duckadam!
16 goals - that's what Carroll (4),Maxi (4), Bellamy (6) & Kuyt (2) combined delivered in the league last season.
That's what Borini, Assaidi & sterling have to achieve between them.
Stewie Downing can hardly contribute any less than he did last year.
We're looking for Gerrard & Suarez to contribute at least the same, which leaves Allen & Şahin to contribute more than Henderson, Spearing & Adam.
I'm with JJ - I don't get why it has to be black or white on here all the time.
Yes it's disappointing we didn't bring in a 29 year old reasonable player to give us depth, but by the same token I'd rather we brought in the right player.
I don't quite get all the anger directed at the Americans - it was pretty clear we had £20m + sales to spend - and that's what we spent. If we'd got rid of Carroll & Spearing for the £20m we wanted for them, then we could have signed Sturridge and Dempsey.
I think the question "should we be paying £6m for this player 29 yr old" is a valid on. You'll note that Spurs were able to pay it and fund all their other transfers by selling arguably their best 2 players last season. They pretty much spent what they brought in - we didn't - we spent more than we brought in.
We could have solved the problem by selling Agger.
I guess the benefit of Carroll's move is that he will get the time on the pitch that he needs in a team that will play to his strengths - if it works we can probably get a good fee for him next season and add that to a transfer kitty.
In the meantime or helps get the club in to a better state financially if we have him off the wage bill - and remember - 4 goals was his contribution last season.
Anybody who believes that what happened in last years pre-season transfer window isn't having a direct impact on this one is delusional.
I also don't think that getting the clubs finances in to good shape is a bad thing at all. Ross has been banging on about this for ages, and rightly so. It'll take time to sort out and make the team competitive - and I mean compete for titles & Champions League - without the sort of ridiculous cash injections that Man City & Chelsea have seen and FSG were never going to do that.
In the meantime it's disappointing we have to make do with the resources we have at our disposal - but maybe it will tease us in to overachieving for a change.
