The Randy way or Citeh's Trillions ?

[Rip Van We Go Again]

Is anybody (well, those who have previously argued that O'Neill deserves more time) thinking that maybe a clean break all round would be best for all concerned?

I'm not one of his worshippers, but I think his number was up at the arse end of last season as he ran the same players into the ground.

He's had 4 seasons and pissed a massive amount of money up the wall.

The Heskey transfer with mega wages alone should get him strung up.

Time to go.

[Toronto Villa]

If Ivanhoe's our top earner forget selling him. He's here till he retires as there's not a club on earth who will take him on those wages, unless Capello takes over at Citeh. :o}

Here's the good news - Heskey's only got two years left on his contract.
I said at the time we signed him, the contract length was pure madness. I wonder what length of contact is on the table for 30 year old Robbie Keane. 4 years?

I don't think he'll make the end of that contract. Randy will want him gone before that with some cash coming back in. If he doesn't move this season, this will be his last - thank goodness.

Not his last season, he's got two left

Not that simple with shifting him, either.

Manager: I want to sell you, West Brom are interested
Emile: I'll talk to them.

*later*

Emile: They're offering me 2 years at 20k a week. I've got 2 years left here at 60k a week. I'll stay here.

I am starting to think that way, especially after finding out about Heskey. I'd still give him a little bit more time though, he has this transfer window to prove us all wrong.

When we signed Heskey I was actually quite happy with the transfer as I thought he'd been signed as a squad player. Clearly the wages offered seem to indicate something quite different.

I'm presuming MON isn't actually in charge of negotiating wages so it is slightly simplistic to hold him solely responsible for the state of our wage bill even if he is responsible for signing these players.

[PaulWinch again]

I have to be honest I'm pretty disillusioned right now, not by Randy but by the management of the club. If M'ON is going to stay, he needs to make amends for his massive wastes of money and get rid of a lot of deadwood and bring in some good value players.

[Toronto Villa]

The Randy way. Otherwise my dwindling faith in modern football will be all but extinguished.

[Risso]

That news that Heskey is our highest earner (and must therefore make him the club's best paid player ever) turns him from a slight embarassment of a player who hasn't quite worked out, to the biggest transfer disaster ever.

No wonder Liverpool plumped for Hodgson instead of going for O'Neill.

It's all relative though Risso. Had he ended up at Liverpool as it had been rumoured then he wouldn't have been close to being the highest earner. It is sad that he is ours mind you, but he's not the biggest transfer disaster ever. That's a bit of a stretch.

Heskey's not been a good signing at all but when you factor in transfer fees then Balaban and Collymore could easily be bigger disasters.

My position remains the same as it was from about March this year.

Would prefer him to see out the five years at least -if for no other reason than to say we've done all we can from a continuity/ backing perspective. But wouldn't be at all distraught if he himself decides to depart.

He's a funny fcuker though.

The start of last season continued like the back end of 2008/09, and yet by Christmas we were 3rd and beating Manure away at Old Trafford. He responds best when his back is to the wall and people doubt him.

I disagree Kev.  Odd games like Man U aside, every time we've needed a really big effot (like in the cup final and the chases for 4th place) he's failed miserably.

I think it would be more accurate to say that he responds best when he is angry at people.

Or we make up the difference.
