Kolo Toure [Merged]

[the--dud]

If we finish 6th, it'll be our highest finish ever since the formation of the Premier League! So nobody can moan at that!
In the founding year of the EPL 1992-93 we finished 9th. An interesting point as well, the last year of the old Football League 1991-92 we finished 5th (the year Leeds won anyone remember??). I believe this is our highest finish since the amazing 60s/70s!

People need to get some perspective, it's almost 20 years since we finished anywhere NEAR 6th, and almost bloody 40 years since we finished top 4!!

Calm down, top 6 would be amazing anything else would be worthy of an infinite amount of power-wanking ;)

this was the guardian rumour mill's take on the Toure deal. Classic snipe at the Daily Mail!

One story that certainly isn't out of place in a column dealing largely in unfounded speculation is the Daily Mail "exclusive" stating that Manchester City have had a £15m bid for Kolo Touré accepted by Arsenal and subsequently agreed personal terms of £120,000 per week with the 28-year-old. That's £180,000 per week less than they were planning on paying John Terry, so we're a bit surprised the Mail missed a trick by choosing not to go off on one of their trademark rants complaining about immigrant workers coming over here, stealing our jobs and undercutting our workers.

Well funny!

Toure has about 5 men in suits with him.

SSN have video of him entering the hospital in Manchester for his medical. Sounds like it nearly done and dusted

Afternoon everyone, as you all know by now this morning we started the medical precedure for Kolo Toure, I can now confirm the medical has been passed and Kolo will sign a contract at Eastlands in the next couple of hours, he has not left us yet, but he should leave the hospital in the next hour or so.
