I just made the mistake of looking on the Brum Mail site, never again. What an awful excuse for a newspaper.

I can’t stand Pontus Janson. Remember last season when one of our players tackled him around the midriff and the cheating bastard rolled around holding his face.

Horrible cheating git wasn't he? He wasn't the only Leeds player that day to feign injury.

No it was more like £7-8m

I thought it was a swap deal for Traore.  Straight swap, no cash.

Yes, but they were both valued at £7m, so that's the value in the accounts and what FFP would be calculated on.

It wasn't a straight swap, they just sort of cancelled each other out. I think there was a week or two between the deals.

Albert to Leeds rumours surfacing again

Wouldn’t be against this, as long as he’s replaced. 30 and in his last year, went off the boil. Could command reasonable money

Think just silly rumours to link that he played with Bamford .

Turned on sky sports news at 10am . Mourinho categories say "the information I have is no " in press conference plain to see and then they go to some reporter outside man utd training ground and the said reporter who was even  there listening to the press conference gets asked what business do you expect man utd to do.

I turned it off. Because even when people say he's not moving or we aren't signing they make up fake news ideas

Lots of made up nonsense by rolling news and reguratation of information.

They announce deals which have already been done or know about.

It's laugh able that most of these media outlets know bum all about anything and act all ITK.

Anyways!

I rarely watch Sky but have been keeping a close eye on SSN over the last 24 hours for obvious reasons, what a carnival of nothingness, actual news or facts almost totally absent, during the transfer window the channel ultimately fulfils it's role as naked promotion for the product.

It treats the viewer with contempt, boiling everything down to brain-numbing assumptions of wonder at the glory that is the PL, hammered home with all the subtlety of a horny rhinoceros. It's going to be wonderful, exiting, fantastic.

If Sky Sports News were banned from using the word 'understands' they'd not be able to cope

And now Sky (in the shape of Denis Wise and Sue Smith almost goading Jack into insisting on his move, how well he would do under Pochettino, how much he needs to play in the prem. Oh my God - give it a rest.

He isn't a cock. He is a funny haired, malevolent goblin who knows his official title to the world. A ******.
