Uncalled for that, apologies. From what I remember your fanny is infact very clean. Anyways, I don't take kindly to being singled out just because my opinion differs to the masses, even if that opinion has been hammered all day by me, which i know it had. I out fans into a few categories where we're concerned at the minute, and the majority of this thread seemed to fall into the 'we can do what we want' category, and as a seasoned fan, I don't like that cocky attitude, an attitude which only seems to have cropped up since our riches came. For me we loaned our future keeper to Brum on the following basis: That he stays there all season and so he gains PL experience. That deal benefited 3 parties, Brum us and Hart himself. Job done. Now though, now we have been inept enough to allow ourselves to let this situation occur, we want to change that deal slightly just so it benefits ONE party, us. We woudn't like it one bit if we were Brum and a club who not so long ago were on a par with us recalled someone we loaned off them, just because it suited them. It just seems some of our fans have this attitude where they want to see us do whatever it takes, even if it means making a twat of ourselves in the process. The loan was a gamble, a gamble which had 99% of a positive outcome for ALL 3 parties concerned, but which also had a very unlikely 1% which meant it could bite our balls, hard. Just because that 1% has come about though, it doesn't mean we can have it all our way and have 100% it all in our benefit. The gamble has paid in the long term, Hart has had an outstanding season and will be our number one for years to come, but its also now had an adverse effect, but for me that is our problem to deal with and we should not have expected people to have bent over backwards just to suit us, and it now seems everyone is having a paranoid pop at the FA because they haven't bent over backwards. If we wanted 2 first class keepers in the club incase this situation ever occurred, we should have risked Harts wrath and made him stay. We didn't though, we let him go on the proviso it was for a season long and so he got PL experience for our future benefit. We have to adhere to that, no matter what fuck up it puts us in. Again though, apologies for calling your hygiene and unkept appearance of your fanny. :-)
