It's Quiet thread 14 - 'do one' edition

[WRicko]

Yes, I can.

What do Gunn, Harwood Bellis, Doyle, Foden have in common.

Tell me ? What’s your point ?

 

[EdersonsSmiley]

I think Vinny as a midfielder under Mark Hughes, would have struggled to manage that.

Not a fair comparison though is it ?

The others were all 2 levels above Rodri, when we signed them.

Just curious who do you think is on their level that we should have signed for that position?

You seem angry

First off you cannot

So who are the best Spanish 15 year old footballers ?

Size / quantity increases efficiency it’s more efficient to develop 10 players then 5 and better to make 100 k on 10 players than 100 k on 5

Have you not seen how much we have made from selling players like Gunn etc it’s in the papers it’s common knowledge

Why are we having this conversation about how rubbish we are at selling players if you do not know how much about how much we are making on players sales

I want that too but I want them to only be the best I don’t want them there because they where in the academy

We seem to have improved on this front very recently with Foden Doyle Hardwood Bellis and Garcia

NK missing the quality of Barton coming through and getting in the first team. Thank fuck we’ve gone up a fair few notches since then

Rather like bog roll in my house in March this year. It was my job to replace it. Went to the Supermarkets and the shelves were empty. Went to a local shop and they had one pack of Andrex priced at £10 and some cheapo 1 ply stuff that I didn't think was good enough. I said that Andrex is a bit on the pricy side. Owner smiled and said well make me an offer and we can talk....

Don't leave me on a cliffhanger, what did you offer? Did he accept? How was the wipe? So many questions

On the edge of your seat?

I'm ITK on this, after long negotiations they settled on a fee of £6.50 paid in installments plus a £2 performance related bonus.

No I normally wipe directly over the bowl

Long negotiations? How long we talking? What did he use in the mean time? I think you're KFA

So I said to the owner, I paid £5.50 for Andrex in January. That is the market rate in my opinion so that is my offer. The owner tipped his head back in laughter and eventually, fighting to get words out through guffaws he put his arm around my shoulders and explained that he knew I lived in the seven bedroom gated property. He knew I needed that bog roll desperately and said the price wasn’t £10 it’s now £15! I had my principles! I told him to shove it up his a***! He thought it was an instruction for use and laughed some more. I type this with brown stained, smelly fingers and intact principle.

We're talking a good 2 days, he had to wipe his arse on the MEN newspaper in the meantime. I'm clearly ITK his next purchase of toilet roll is "imminent", should be announced Thursday, Friday, Saturday Sunday Monday or Tuesday at the latest, if not this month then definitely some point this year.
