Looking for the roundup ffs? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Yes (I think). Nick suggested that the last page be used for all previous round-ups... </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

We saw that it looked shocking in the Liverpool thread and thought better of it.

Not surprised west brom are being arses.

Robson is treating Koumas with utter contempt. They're causing massive problems with the potential deal to Cardiff. They accept Cardiff have met the valuation yet are being arsey over the way they want the payments made.

Add in how they treated Earnshaw while he was there and was one of their best players.

Such a pathetic club. Robson is a ledgend and all, but as a manager he's also a nasty little pr*ck. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Earnshaw should have played more but he was not treated badly. Not being picked doesn't mean he is being treated badly.

We want £2m for Koumas with at least £1.5m up front. Cardiff have offered a max of £1m up front and for us to get all the money they have to get promoted and then stay up. So that means we probably won't get £2m.

Koumas is the player going AWOL, how are we treating him badly. We wanted him to return to training and become part of the squad again, since Cardiff were not offering us what we wanted.

If a club wants one of our players and we try to keep them then we are being arses ffs? icon_biggrin.gif

Thoughts on Bardsley chaps...? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

See our responses when the other 2 Rangers fans asked on the last page icon_biggrin.gif </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I fell asleep when I seen Hargreaves' name mentioned... icon_wink.gif

I'm not sure if Bardsley will start on Saturday but he'll certainly provide much needed cover at right back. Our player there (Alan Hutton) is only 21 as well and showed some decent form when he broke into the side. However, since he returned last October he's not been as solid nor confident and as such the ever-fickle Rangers fans have got on his back.

Should provide each other with a good bit of competition for the place.

There is a premature bonfire arranged for after the game at the Bay Horse pub. Rumours of Maine Road fans being placed in the middle are to be confirmed.

Not strictly true tbf Taz. a look through any of the regular 'club vs country'-themed threads on here will show a fair few who'll put england before their club </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Taz you're wrong on this one.

There are many people who would prefer country success to club success.

slipping some Park hate in there icon_mad.gif </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Is that not a fair assessment, given that the majority of chances fell to him yesterday, and i don't think there was one that even troubled the keeper? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

Ronaldo had more, and better chances though, it happens. Park still played well for me. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

you could argue who had the better chances, but he certainly didn't have more. And i didn't comment on his game overall, purely how he did in front of goal.

can anybody explain to me why we're continuing to play Larsson?

He's been fracking woeful for us more often than not. Goes missing for large chunks of the game and looks off the pace whenever he is involved. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

that's ludicrously harsh. we've created nothing for him for a few games now and yet his movement and workrate have remained first-rate. far more pressing concerns than him atm.

I think people are being harsh on our backline.

It consisted of LM-LB-CB-RM for 70 minutes with a reserve goalie behind them (had his best game for us I felt) who hasn't had much chance to play with them so obviously we weren't going to be rock solid.

Just done a quick search and as far as I can see nothing since 1990. So no doubt its some match that only Mark and Razor Eddie have seen. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

It was during a campaign where we went on to lift the trophy, if that helps.

Only thing that worries me is that Fergie seems content with the defence. As the back end of the season showed, without Rio, Vids we looked pretty vulnerable and with Gaby leaving it's one less person who can comfortably play in the middle </div></BLOCKQUOTE>

I don't think we should worry about the defence. We were really unlucky to lose so many first choice defenders at the same time. Thats all.

If one of Vida and Rio is injured Brown does a good enough job coming in. Can't see both defenders being out at the same time again next season mind.

Is it me, or does it feel we’re mugs in the transfer market?

If rumours are true, both Madrid and Barca want Gabby. So, we’ve said to both ‘We’ll accept 5 million and he can decide’. Surely it’d be better to stick him on the football equivalent of ebay, see which of the two blinks 1st and run away with pots of cash.
