HH Sheikh Mansour, just in case you ever bump into him drop the "R"

Cheers mate, my mistake.

 

[oakiecokie]

Maybe Brian Marwood's inability to close the Van Persie deal is due to our owners not being prepared to meet whatever ridiculous package him and Arsenal expect.

how do you know that? link? quote?

I'll tell you what I do know mate, and that is that it is Khaldoun and HRH Sheikh Mansour who hold the purse strings at City, so if we're not making progress in a signing, it is logical to assume that this is because either the player doesn't want to come to City, or City don't want to pay what is being asked. In either case, I don't see how Marwood can be held responsible. He may well be City's mouthpiece when they negotiate deals, but he isn't the man in control.

So whose responsible for clearing out the deadwood?

John Williams was brought in from Blackburn to do that, wasn't he?

Is he still at the club?

 

[LoveCity]

Williams was brought in on a short-term contract and didn't do a particularly good job of clearing out the "deadwood".

So he's no longer employed by the club then?

Still there, and probably will be until he dies. Apparently he is a very wily, clock-watching survivor of football boardroom politics

Surely the time to evaluate this is at the end of the window.

I believe not, it was a short-term contract I think.

We'd have had more joy if we brought in Richard Kuklinski to get rid of one or two of the deadwood.

He was brought in last summer, we failed to sell any deadwood and had to make do with loans where we paid the majority of the wages again. Williams isn't here now.

 

[BlueAnorak]

I am now convinced that City will not go higher than £14m for RVP. United, likewise. Buying RVP breaks the rules that both City and United have employed for the last 4 years - i.e. serious money is only spent on players aged 26 or under (for City) and 25 or under (for United). As such, unless Juventus up there offer, RVP will be an Arsenal player all next season.

Sorry LC, I was under the impression he was still here, mate.
