has stopped !!!!!
Just another pointer to our lack of ambition !!!!!!
Did you ever believe that crap???
has stopped !!!!!Just another pointer to our lack of ambition !!!!!!
How do you mean suddenly….. I cant remember much talk of europe in about 6 years.
That dream left us when Heskey, Palacios and Taylor were sold closely followed with Valencia and Cattermole.
donny’s page – it wasn’t just europe that died upon selling those players, it was the clubs ambition for premier league status.
That dream left us when Heskey, Palacios and Taylor were sold closely followed with Valencia and Cattermole.Second season under Bruce in january that all happened and i agree we have gone backwards ever since.
Think you are right here
pride, passion and fight seem to have departed from this point onwards
and not just with the playing staff – crowd gave up imo when they first set eyes on the G man and realised in which direction we were heading
That dream left us when Heskey, Palacios and Taylor were sold closely followed with Valencia and Cattermole.You say that as if the club couldn’t wait to sell on these players.
Heskey went to Aston Villa for £3.5m and would have gone for free anyway at the end of the season.
Palacios went to Spurs for £12m. Latics had already turned down a substantial offer for him from Spurs until Man City put in a bid which forced Spurs to up their offer, which was eventually accepted.
Taylor went to Newcastle and was put in part exchange for N’Zogbia. I know who got the better of that deal.
It had already been agreed prior to the January transfer window that Valencia was going to Man United at the end of the season for a fee of £16m.
Cattermole wanted away and join Bruce at Sunderland. We paid £3.5m for him and got £6m from Sunderland.
To recap, those players left to join Villa, Spurs, Newcastle, United and Sunderland.
With the possible exception of Palacios are you suggesting that we should and more importantly could have kept any of those players at Wigan?
