In this short life I like to go fishing as much as possible,it’s very peaceful you know, sometimes I take a good book. Anyone know of any new ones?
fluffchucking.
No, but there’s a shite one called ARSED you can buy, get a copy quick before they get pulped ;)
They say there’s a good book in everybody, Griff is still looking for his, in the meantime you could read my book, it’s fiction, about some bloke from years ago that got killed and came back to life, he was a magician too, a bit like Paul Daniels. Buy it now, it’s called BIBLE
On average, over 8 seasons, I’d say we’ve spent about 4 million a season on strikers, hardly messi money.
To find the truth, sometimes you need to go right back to the beginning, remember at the start of all this, when uncle Dave said that jewell would have a 40 million warchest? Everyone has heard the legend, and Whelan gets slated for it to this day, but the truth is, that even if he put in a 40 million pound bid in for falcao, he wouldn’t come, if he said he’d pay 20 million and a hundred grand a week for even a Defoe, he wouldn’t come, and even a 10 million bid for someone like bent or Torres would be either rebuffed or a massive gamble anyway.
We are in the wrong league, end of, the gap between the rich and the poor is too wide, it is not a competition. And all the FFP rules in the world won’t change it.
We aren’t the only club in this situation, even arsenal and Liverpool are being cast adrift.
It’s just a big bunch of nothingness, a massive pile of shite, and we’re the ones expected to enjoy it, because it’s the best league in the world, well that’s only because sky say so, I trust my own judgement thank you very much, and I say this league is wank.

As for being expected to watch it….. please take the door to the left and dont come back….[/quote]
There’s a big difference between being expected to watch it, and being expected to enjoy it, a bit like a funeral, you feel like you have to attend, knowing full well it will be depressing
You will get over the apocalypse not arriving and be able to buy yourself a pint and drown your sorrows wondering why the sun did not go supernova and annihilate the Milky Way.
Not that I want to deprive anyone of an excuse for drowning their sorrows worrying about these things but the Sun will not go supernova – it’s not massive enough – and even if it did it wouldn’t annihilate the Milky Way.
RIP Sir Patrick Alfred Caldwell-Moore
Or maybe I’m wrong and we’ll all get to meet Patrick in five days time![/quote]
You expect me to bet money on the word of someone called S P A C Moore?
All bets is off, unless you want to pm mayan explain it all[/quote]
Taking Sir Patrick’s word on matters such as this would be a pretty safe bet.[/quote]Coincidence that he dies just before the apocalypse? I think not, he knows what’s coming and it’s not going to be nice, better than another tedious relegation battle, but not nice nonetheless.
That link mentions nothing of wine and steak or helicopters and holidays, and so shouldn’t be used as a reliable source, I bet whelans got more in coins down the back of his sofa than he’s spent on quality goalscorers in the last few years.
Don’t talk rubbish.
Whelan is a man of the people. He’s building that club near Wigan Tech for youngsters.
All the Premier League money was spent on ping pong tables, drinks cartons and smoking shelters.[/quote]
Are you talking about the N’Zogbia club for spoiled children?
Admittedly it’s an admirable thing to take all the little shits off the streets, but enough about all the signings from scotland, that youth club will shut within 18 months and Whelan will end up with another town centre development he can sell on at a profit.

Jr has done nothing since leaving, we don’t have the money to get a proven goalscorer, if we did they probably wouldn’t come, since benson went we don’t have the nouse to scout a prospect. That’s the top and bottom of it.
The joys of being a latics fan, oh for a decent cup run, oh never mind.
J.D. my point is we have had the money. The money we have spent on this lot in 6 years???( has anyone the figures?) We could have bought Lionel Messi. On the other hand you’ve got to ask yourself “Are they all Useless” or is it the way we play????[/quote]
In a previous spat I cant be arsed looking back for we had spent £89 million since enterimg the Prem and recouped £91 million hardly enough to recruit Messi[/quote]
If those figures are correct. Where has all the Sky and TV money gone??? seeing as on an earlier post, someone said that the wage bill was £27 million.[/quote]
Are you seriously asking this? This has been done to death almost every year since 2004.
In 2010 the wage-bill was £39 million and the club’s turnover – including Sky TV money was £43 million. Therefore, 90% of money coming into the club went on players’ salaries.
Have a read of this. It explains it in layman’s terms.

I’m sure JPC01 could give you a more thorough explanation, but the gist of it is: we have no money.[/quote]

Fillet steaks and fine wine, helicopters and holidays, where do you think?
