Not the point at all.So Kenny had nothing to do with it? Kenny didn't want Downing?
The fact that we even wanted Downing was wrong.

Well that's where my gripe with Kenny lies. Ryan can speak for himself.Not the point at all.
Wenger wants Suarez. He might get him, or he might not get him..... It is down to the directors to sort out the paperwork and potential valuation. If the Downing fee was not defendable by the directors, it was down to Comolli to put the foot down. What else was his job/involvement?So Kenny had nothing to do with it? Kenny didn't want Downing?

@SkySportsPeteO: West Ham closing in on signing of Liverpool winger Stewart Downing. #lfc #whufc
Lulz
We need a replacement though
Heh, can you imagine if Downing and Carroll suddenly clicked and starting assisting / scoring for fun.
This is all great n'all, but I wish we'd fucking buy someone else, we're looking a bit lightweight as it is.
Losing Downing will not make any difference, at...........all.It's like we were looking that great with Downing in the sife either...

But it will leave an opening in the squad for the likes of Alberto, Ibe and Sterling.
Edited my post...
Aquillani was. He was crocked, cowardly and, when finally fit, didn't fit in.
West Ham are close to signing Stewart Downing from Liverpool after reigniting negotiations for the winger.
Please, for the love of everything holy… Let this be true!....
Best news all window. Suddenly he only really cost us 12m

Well, Macca is really up shit creek without a paddle trying to defend Kenny. He basically embarrassed himself - the signings, the press conferences, the Suarez defence, those fucking t-shirts ! he made us a laughing stock.
Joe Allen is just an average footballer. It's not totally stupid to defend him
And you've gone from justifying the fee for Downing to claiming nobody is trying to justify it. So maybe read your own post again. (insert obligatory angry phrase here)
So why isn't your Ma on the transfer committee?Wait, 28m. Jesus wept. Even me mother knew it was a shite signing.
The transfer fee, which could rise to £6m based his on appearances for the Londoners
Talks between West Ham and Downing are at an advanced stage over terms, with one of the stumbling blocks being the player's wages of around £80,000 a week.
But Liverpool are prepared to pay up some of his remaining contract to facilitate the deal, and it could be finalised as early as next week.
