I had a similar thing happen to me the other week.

I purchased four cakes from Greggs... one for each of the family. When I got home I noticed that she had charged me for four but only three were in the box. Robbing bitch.

Ok, not exactly the same, but still...

I bet Carew must be traumatised at having to wait 2 weeks to recoup that money back.

Look at the times Villa has paid millions of pounds for a good player and it's never arrived.

Might I suggest a blast of Alexei Sayle's "Ullo John! Gotta New Motor?" over the PA when the players are next warming up on the pitch.
Better still a verse from the Holte should he ever come on again as sub.

I agree, they are awfully ugly.

But then, so are Q7's.

I'm a Range Rover man !

As for Big John, £100k is pocket money.

You forgot to count the fries.  They might have short-changed you that.

Haven't you heard there's a recession on?!  Even poor footballers have to make cutbacks.

Greggs do some rather tasty jam doughnuts, 6 pre packed in a bag with cellophane on one side, so you can see you are getting the six they are contacted to supply.  Live and learn .

It is £100k that is missing as looks like there was no car on the first place..
Bit like buying players from video performance. Who was that Croatian that never played a game?

I was overcharged 35p in my local corner store the other day. Bet that had more of an affect on me financially at the moment than losing £100k did on JC...

Carew (can he be bothered) or any other player, the money we pay these lads and how they generally blow it is absolutely disgusting. I mean Habib and his Red Stallion etc etc.

If I lost a 100k I would probably be a little peed off because it would take me some months ;) to save it. Not these young lads.

The clubs pay 80% of turnover, that's turnover, gross,  in salaries to compete and you guys who pay for your tickets (like wot I used to) pay for it.

There is something very wrong with this business. I suppose TV is the real criminal here.

I dunno, when Charlie Aitken bust his guts for the shirt I could support him for his effort. He earned sort of what I did. Now?

Monopoly money for these players, and the old adage that 'they have a small window to earn" no longer applies when with proper investment they are set up for life.

No sympathy from me. Sorry. What was said? TIT. Perfect. Had it with this lot. Really have.

Nah, that's Scar. Mufasa dies about halfway through. Your Disney knowledge is a disgrace. Hang your head in shame.
