      I’ve already told you Phil, 12mil, and if its to utd I’d expect a couple of loanees coming the other way, he really is that good, he was tidy in a Wigan side with limited quality around him, put him in a better team and he’ll only improve, if he can get anywhere near keanes level he’ll be a star and I think he could.

        That’s an excellent way of sacking the prick pardew without having to compensate him for any of his ridiculous 8 year contract, brilliant Ashley, they really are a special kind of retarded club aren’t they? When was the last time they won anything?

          If Chris eagles was any good he’d be playing in the premier league and utd wouldn’t have let him go in the first place, we should sign Ronaldo and bale with ibrahimovic down the middle, that will balance out having Caldwell at the back and will ensure DW spends every last penny on the latics before he pops his clogs.

            Powell on loan from utd is a good shout, depends who they sign. We won’t get 20m for McCarthy, but its a good starting point for negotiation by dw, maybe he can wangle a cash plus players deal from whoever signs him?
            Were not in a bad position, the players leaving would have left anyway and the likes of di santo wouldn’t have the mettle for the championship anyway, at least the money coming in from sales will allow the squad to be bulked up allowing for rotation and injuries etc, that really cost us last season.

              £1 million is more than enough as an incentive, more clubs should be run that way, reward success instead of rewarding mediocrity, players and managers getting obscene amounts of money every week regardless of performance is what will ultimately kill off football as we know it.
              And the 1 year rolling contract is just good business sense, whyeave yourself open to a ridiculous pay off if things don’t work out? Look at what Blackburn had to pay berg after 57 days in the job, ,2.7 million pounds, is that what some of our supporters actually recommend for Whelan to do?
              this appointment will either work out or not, DW has covered both eventualities with this contract, and no matter who was in charge it would be tough to get back up, lets just enjoy what the new season has to bring, it’ll be a new experience for most of our fans, if they stay for championship football that is.

                I’m half Sicilian, I’ll be half ok, don’t know about the rest of you though!

                If you’re only half OK, I don’t know about the rest of YOU![/quote]

                Not even full blooded Sicilians are safe Griff, Have you seen the godfather?! I’d certainly mingle well with the locals and be ok until I opened my trap, but I dread to think what reaction a couple of hundred wiganers on the lash in Palermo would get, arse stabbing a plenty, and not the George Michael kind![/quote]

                Amazingly, I have never seen the Godfather, but I have seen the Sopranos start to finish twice, so I know exactly where you’re coming from.

                But that wasn’t the point of my post, which I thought was quite clever :([/quote]

                Great minds and all that…..I’m a total sopranos addict, I can’t remember how many times I’ve seen them, though I do remember watching it from start to finish within about 10 days, and feeling a terrible sense of loss at the end, I was genuinely in mourning and quite depressed, superb television, probably the best series I’ll ever see.

                And I did get your post, it just wasn’t that clever…..whattayagonnado……..fogedabowdit

                        My dream (though wholly possible) group would be:

                        Ajax
                        Palermo
                        Wigan Athletic
                        Limassol

                          He’ll end up with shitloads to spend if fellaini goes, how he’ll adjust to that I just don’t know. Sometimes I’ll be a bit skint for a few weeks until I get paid off a job, I’ll have to be very careful with my money or I’d end up in the shit cashflow wise. Then I’ll get a nice big wedge and buy shit that I don’t really need, like the same trainers in 2 different colours, I wonder if bob will be like that?

                            If he’s on 25 a week at wigan, he’ll get 50 if he moves, more to the point it will give DW his yearly big sale and subsequent transfer kitty, all the clues are there, it happens every single summer, and relegation only makes it more likely than before.

                            And don’t be thinking that the main players will be playing Europa, not happening, there’ll be more important things to think about.

                              He aint worth 12M that’s for sure !

                              No players are worth the millions paid for them, but he’ll go for very good money, I’d bet my house on it.

                                Kone- Everton 6.5m (and I wouldn’t blame him)

                                McCarthy – Utd 12m (and I wouldn’t blame him)

                                McCarthur – stays, he’s at his level

                                Mcmanaman, stays for another season.

                                Maloney, stays at least another year, will prob retire here.
