Nicklas Helenius

[Morten]

Helenius is being quoted saying that while the clubs are negotiating, he will come to Birmingham at the weekend or early next week "to have a look".

[cdbearsfan]

His agent has said he's flying to Birmingham next week to discuss personal terms and undergo a medical.

[Concrete John]

Makes sense.  This only broke yesterday due to Danish stock exchange rules, so is probably in the early stages and there's a way to go.   

[PaulWinch again]

I suspect he'll join, it's not like the official site tend to announce things prior to being fairly certain.

This whole situation is the moderators fault.  In this case they seemed to have made an exception thus creating "bad juju" and changing the course of humanity.

I say burn them...burrrrrn them all and appoint new more ...more better...well slightly better and more strict ...yes really strict really really strict moderators NOW!

[danlanza]

Just been on SSN that he will be in Brum for a medical next week. His club have said that, looks promising that does.

Burn them by the way. All of them.

However heated the debate/argument, personal insults are uncalled for and not warranted.  Greg dug himself a hole he had difficulty getting out of and resulted to insult and defamation.

I've enjoyed reading Greg's slant on things even agreeing with some of his points at times.  It's unfortunate that he's gone and a polite request from me to the mods PWS in particular, if Greg offers an apology and PWS is willing to accept it, can his red card be reduced to a yellow and a couple of days suspension be issued?

I would second that dave , but knowing greg I'm not sure he would offer an apology - it would be nice if it could be patched up between them though.

Thirded. Come on Nash, say sorry ya daft sod. That's not an insult is it ?

Greg did apologise a few pages back. I'm struggling to see what all the fuss was about.

Agreed.  Seems a bit of a feeding frenzy. Epic quotathons and threats of banning for having an opposing point of view or not backing down all seems a bit Villa Talk.  I actually disagreed with Greg's original point, but he was one of the more positive posters from what I recall last season (and under McPish). So petty point scoring over his more negative contributions last year seems a bit off. Most of us could have been accused of that at various stages last season.

I probably didn't help so sorry.

I was up with toothache and following.
I appreciate that Greg apologised. However, he didn't apologise for the 'liar' bit. I've read it again since. PWS quoted Greg directly. I'm therefore still puzzled about the liar accusation, given that it was a direct quote. I've decided to ask if Niklas is really going to join us.

It would be a shame if we lost a long standing member and i hope things can still be patched up between pws and Greg , they are both good people and two of my favourite posters and its nothing that can't be sorted.

[WarszaVillan]

I understand that Niklas had agreed terms, but after reading this thread in his hotel he has decided to decline the offer. My sources also tell me that Bentake has now decided to ply his trade in non-league football

Greg's a wind up merchant, full stop.

Yes, he makes some good points, and I've agreed with plenty in the last couple of years, but when some of more questionable comments come under a bit of scrutiny he reverts to this passive/aggressive nonesense and starts trotting out these stereotype cliches which are offensive, but probably just on the right side of the site rules.

And that 'apology' to PWS was probably the most backhanded I've ever seen.

I could'nt agree more personally.

[damon loves JT]

I would love to see Greg back on here, but he would probably need to show a bit of humility for that to happen. As we all know, the very thing that makes him so entertaining is his total inability to admit that he is wrong.

So I'm not holding my breath.

I have a picture of you in my head agreeing in a "personal" way. Not a good start to the day
