You're breaking my heart. I have a bad hang over and I'm not quite sure what you are saying? The owners wants to sell? They are as bad as G/H? Why? Because they didn't want Rodgers to buy Dempsey?
I know I'm a bit late to the discussion, but that's not the full story on the Red Sox trade.
The Red Sox removed $250m worth of salary (to 2018) from their books with that trade, removed 3 under-performing/over-payed players (one of which - Carl Crawford - makes Michael Owen's career look injury-free) and got some very highly-touted prospects in return.The only people complaining are the people who still think those players are able to produce (a small and vocal minority). It would be the equivalent of us getting Downing, Carroll and Cole off our books in exchange for some top prospects who are ready to play in the first team.
I think Henry realizes that a sustainable model for the future in both leagues doesn't include these over-priced/over-payed players, but instead building from within. I'm just not sure if he recently embraced this strategy from watching other teams in the the Premiership or Major League Baseball.

Ha. Fall guy ?
Silly boy. Grow up, lad.

You can at least try though. Show willing, what?
Perhaps they could reward him with promotion back to the commercial department to avoid another sacking.
Sunny, I don't find it a completely reasonable argument to line up Rodgers quotes and say, look, connect the dots, either he's an idiot or the owners are Machiavellian, because he wouldn't allow this to happen.
I accept the premise that it was a basic, and ludicrous fuck up.
There are many explanations that could result in this happening, with various apportionment of blame. I don't think the most likely one is the one where Rodgers is promised money (the Carroll money that didn't exist) and then was told to fuck off so that we made the club that little bit leaner. It's not enough money to make a difference, which is why it is so frustrating.
Rodgers certainly isn't blameless. He assisted in putting the club in a last minute high pressure situation. That situation exposed that we weren't particularly agile, but we shouldn't have been playing musical chairs with a critical replacement in the first place.

I know all tensions are running high chaps for obvious reasons..
But can we try and keep the abuse being hurled at one another to a bare minimum
Thanks..

When was Jono appointed a mod?
Apparently they want all new mods to have done time as a sub forum mod first
Do we have a DoM (Director of Modding)?
Or an Ulsterman.
The Ayre been given the boot rumors are gathering momentum..
