He sold him for 80 million.

I asked if we had got deals in place for the 3 players as rumored and their straight answer eye to eye was that just isn't true. I know when people are lying and Steve wasn't.

But in your original post, mate, you stated you had asked him had we signed three players, yet this one asks if we merely had them in place.

Which is it?

He may not have been lying to you, may not be in on everything, either.

The day any club executive feels the need to verify football singings, is the day we can all pack up.

I asked the question a couple of times to try and see if he would give anything more away so both. And the answer to both is no. We have a player at an advanced stage and 2 others on discussion. that is it at the moment with the signings.

I appreciate he wouldn't tell me stuff that I hadn't asked and when I asked direct questions he couldn't answer he was honest enough to tell me he couldn't answer. These questions he answered and imo honestly.

This is, for the most part, true... but there's always the odd indiscretion/fuck-up/act of revenge :)

They travelled 160 miles to do a Q&&A session, I'm not sure they were there to appease me and the others.

Milton Keynes?

Haha that fcuk up would of been caused due to a crafty fecking journo asking the same fecking question 16 times in 16 different ways :)

Not have a going, mate. Just you seem more to confirm the three sets of negotiations posted by me and others elsewhere, rather than outline direct corrections as the title thread suggests.

The only conflicting info, is we are at advanced stages in this trio of areas.

Cheers

I notice a totally different response when it's info people don't want to hear. An almost instant brush off as oh it can't be true. Yet I was speaking with one of the highest people within the club directly, yet people are happy to believe somebody who tells them we are signing this player and that player but I can't tell you how I know.

Hahaha really does show the power of the human mind doesn't it, when it wants to believe something it does and when it doesn't want to believe it don't lol<br /><br />-- Fri May 21, 2010 11:59 am --<br /><br />

I think it is not necessarily a case of anybody lying on the ITK side, I think it's more a case of where the info has come from. The person I spoken to is definately 100% ITK of everything wheras where the other info has come from is probably where the club want to be but is not quite there yet.

That is my explaination.

However I got the feeling we were not after star name forwards by the way he answered a couple of questions to the floor.

So he gave you the impression if someone said are we in for Gerrard/Torres he would of said yes or no to which ever was applicable?

Once bitten twice shy methinks.

We've been humped in the market before so I doubt we'd be running around telling everyone what we are doing and what superstars we are going/trying to sign.

I'm still of the view that we will nail some great players. Khaldoon's cheeky wink says it all for me.

 

[Pearce_out]

He wouldn't have answered if I asked him if we were in for gerrard, they were happy to answer most questuions but any question that would directly indicate what player or position we were after they were quite clear that they couldn't answer it. They were being very honest with us.
