I have waited far too long, it would seem, to allow myself to be exposed to such eloquence. What must one do from such a point in time to get such thinkers together with the influence and persuasive power of people like Mr.Woodhall in order to charge the masses with just the right amount of energy to affect a positive change for our club?

Just a note - it sounds quite a lot like you're taking the piss.

Just so you know, we've noticed.

My goodness. I care neither for the welcome nor the language.

I assure you sir, that my offerings to this topic are far from "taking the Michael" (as I'd far prefer if you don't mind). I'm simply adding another claret and blue toned voice to a chorus that already appears to be a little beyond a diminuendo already.


Hello again Troy.

oooh, is it Troy Eccles. Been a while ain't it?

Having read his posts again it's not. I don't feel the urge to say 'a handbag?'.

No mean feat having spent the last 22 years in the colonies where the language is frequently mangled almost beyond recognition.
Having very strong and irrevocable links to our former colonies in the sub-continent  I feel deeply offended by your insinuation that Her Majesty's English is being destroyed out there. I would suggest  to the contrary and suggest that the problem is more prevalent  in this country.

Of me lambert is the same as moyes - ok at a club of a certain size but totally out of their depth at a bigger club .
Notwithstanding that I will offend the Honourable Mr Tiny Asretrumpet with bad words here I  would suggest that you are talking out of your bottom orifice  Eastters! Mouse went to Champions and one of the richest clubs in the world. Lambert came to us having finished higher than us with Norwich and  despite the fact that historically we are a bigger club than Norwich  at the moment we have a team and operating conditions that make us Norwich's equals. So he has been not challenged in managing us as a "big club".

Moving from a club of Norwich size to villa is a huge step - there is a big difference  in size history and expectation  at villa to Norwich and I believe lambert is out of his depth and the club is too big for him .
I believe Moyes is also out of his depth at man utd and the club are too big for him as well.

Many managers can do well at certain sized clubs but then make the step up to bigger clubs and struggle.
Well I will agree on the fans expectations. Yes we do expect better and more than Norwich however our owners and management have provided him with prevailing conditions that can hardly be described as better/bigger than Norwich.

Gabby on 55/60k,

I think I find that more depressing than the thought of Rooney on a squillion quid a week.

I think you'll find a lot Man U fans thinking quite the opposite this morning. Rooney was about as effective as Jordan Bowery last night.

Also, isn't the term "Mr.Mazrim kindly proffered" an example of a split infinitive? Jesus, don't these kids go to school?

I don't think it is. The infinitive form of the verb would be "to proffer" and an example of a split infinitive would be "to kindly proffer". The form of the verb used by Arsetrumpet was not an infinitive.

I doubt the players are earning peanuts though. It might be what you want to think, but it's not what I think.

Paying 15 - 20 grand a week nowadays in the premier league is just that - peanuts.



Where have you got those figures from or are you plucking them out the air to suit your own argument?

So what do you think is peanuts is for premier league player?

I've no idea, I'm not even going to even guess what our players are on, but one thing I will do, I can guess that Libor Kozak didn't leave Lazio to earn bloody £20k a week over here.

Regardless of the actual figures, it's hard not to imagine Westwood, Weimann, Lowton, Bacuna, Sylla etc are going to be low wages, relative to the rest of the PL.

The club keep telling us we need to cut the wage bill. That is a main reason we are buying players from the lower leagues.

I'm sure they are on low-ish wages, but in reality, we don't know how much, and besides, you've picked out three or four names there. What about the rest?

Kozak wouldn't have been on much at Lazio. He was their third choice striker and Lotito is notoriously tight.

He was also their top scorer in the Europa League. What do you reckon we are paying him then?
