Bull****

[Nic83]

Agger?

"And secondly it demonstrates in very large measure the ongoing commitment of the owners who once again have come good when funds have been needed."

Is this some kind of joke from Parry We have loaned the money against the club to pay for Masch so they have not come good once again because they have never come good in the first place.

I haven't been reading much about the loans etc of late.
But is that 100% true?

[Guest]

This is absolutely fantastic news.

[dww]

Seriously though AFII surely the measure of whether the debt is good or bad comes in the problems with repayment? Even you have to admit Masher, Babel, Lucas, Skrtel and Torres in one year is considerably more spending than we have done in the past and that this is intrinsically a good thing.

Under Moores we wouldn't have done the same whether that be because of conservativeness of nature or lack of resources/contacts who knows but I'm sure we would agree it is true.

The owners have in that sense come through with the cash. We do however need to guard against it biting us in the ass in the future.

Yes. Every pound they have spent so far is paid by the loan they took against the club.

I'm no Parry lover but he couldn't say much else to be fair and I bet that's been spoon fed to him by Hicks.

He could hardly say the greedy fat cunt has borrowed the money and the sooner he's out the better.

Great news!

Moores could have done the same. Nothing really that G&H need to get applauded for.

It's more spending in one season than ever before but we also got a lot of money from the CL and the new TV deal so you really couldn't expect anything else.

We don't know either if the money to sign Masch is from the summer transfer budget or not.

I know that he really couldn't say anything else but it's still disgusting to read comments like that.

or do we read more into it in that parry, like rafa is being nice to hicks as he's defo going to be hanging around...

[Red Chilli]

I'd prefer a 23 year old girl myself, but each to their own.

Hmmmm I think he'd have to be nice to him anyway as he's his current employer but who knows what the ****'s going on. I'm sick to the back teeth of it all mate. I can't wait to get back to just waiting for the matches to come around again.
