So that's four moderators that have posted since the 'massive c*** post and not one request to withdraw it.

I thought I made it quite clear that it's not on, but apologise if it should have been made clearer.

However may I point out that "massive" in teenage speak is extra extra good.

Blues are up shit creek financially. No way will he be anywhere near 12m especially when you consider that Johnson reportedly left for 5m in the summer.

Why don't you try reading all the posts Chris.

Nooooooooooooo. If Chris does that than he will disagree with all of them and  we will never catch up with his capacity to argue :o

If and it is money is limited then we should go out and take that winger off Small Heath ~ Redmond or Mutch the one who played in Europe the other week.  Looks like a young well Ashley Young.
12 million no chance.

Nathan Redmond will go for £3/£4m up front with adds on for games/goals/england caps,etc if Blues have any sense (which I doubt)
Well, the club should be interested in a deal like that (if it is on the table) since the kid has high sell-on potential.

Okonkwo on trials at Aston Villa

from the Nigerian Tribune:

NIGERIA international defender Chibuzor Okonkwo is currently undergoing trials at English Premier League club Aston Villa, officials have disclosed.

According to an official statement by the media officer of the Super Eagles, Ben Alaiya, the Heartland right full back has been released by coach Stephen Keshi to attend the Aston Villa trials.

The 23-year-old defender has established himself as top choice right back for the Super Eagles this outgoing year.

The former Bayelsa United star is solid defensively, loves to join the attack and packs a good shot.

He only recently boasted that he is Nigeria’s best right back.

He has fully recovered from a thigh injury which stopped him from featuring for Heartland in the final of this year’s Federation cup in September.

He has already undergone trials in France, Turkey and Ukraine.

 
According to Wikipedia he is a 23 year old defender with 4 international caps. Good to have him on trial and potentially agree a deal before the African Nations Cup, when he would get more exposure.

Having seen Bents reaction to his goal I don't believe he is going anywhere in January.
I don't want to see Ireland leave either as we may just start seeing the best of him if he can stay injury free and gets a run in the team.
I wouldn't mind if Heskey & Beye go but dont want to see Carlos leave either. The team we have seen at Chelsea should be given a chance now.

Apparently Kevin Davies was, along with Cahill, giving the Bolton fans the "goodbye routine" today.

I would not be remotely surprised to see him wash up at MON's Project Barcelona soon.

Alex McLeish is getting increasingly irritated at being asked about @DarrenBent future. It is safe to say Bent WON'T BE SOLD IN JANUARY

Yes, and even better would be if MON threw a lot of money at it, again.
