Bascombe today...

[Morph]

Cheers Morphino........How long is it now since they tied up the LFC deal and took complete control? Just hope the funds are in place soon

well to be honest i'm not sure how exactly it'll work because they still haven't sorted the board out yet, the old one is still in place, i think its around 8 weeks since the shareholders sold up. Don't really understand these matters to be honest

For those who think Bascaome doesn't know his stuff only have to look at Carra's interview today for proof that he does. "Whenever I'm away I'm always phoning home to find out what players we're linked with in the Echo"

JC has to consult a local paper in order to find out whats goin' on at his place of work?

:despair:
We've signed 5 players Marky. Voronin might have been done pre summer/[re investment, but its still a signing.
We've signed what the brazilians are calling the new Falcao. Look him up mate
We've signed 2 of the brightest young talents around, who if reports are true, were wanted by a host of top clubs around the world.
And we've signed a young winger who's very highly regarded also

Now granted, none of them may yet be on Football Manager 2007, but I reckon they will be soon

The Mancs courted Hargreaves for years, they didn't get him in either of the previous two transfer windows. Granted they've secured two 'hot prospects' (ie, they're probably ace on Football Manager) but they've arguably paid over the top for them

Chelsea have signed Steve Sidwell! And got a free striker from Germany
Arsenal have signed a Polish keeper

Chill the hell out son, its the 4th of June

Well said mate, to much impatience on here, Rafa's not even back yet is he???

I have to admit I am lost as to what to think or believe. Now there's some genuine insight.....

How complicated for T&G is it to go to the bank and say: we cant move money now so can we please borrow 40m? Well pay you back in August.

That is what the $ and € is all about.

If they did that now then they could lose out on big money in just a few months time.

[El Jefecito]

Club isn't going to come out and say its minted. I would guess that some 30m would be made available to Rafa (IMO). The rest of money will come from selling players.

Carson 5m
Cisse 8m
Bellend 9m
Gonzalez 5m
Momo 10-12m

So we should make abt 37-39m from sales. We should be able to make some quality signings.

Momo is boss. He's going nowhere! Mark my words.
