Ani Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Fellaini is costing ?3 Million a season, over his 5 year Contract = ?15 Million. Thats why we didnt get Moutinho, Porto wanted ?15 Million upfront. Im not comparing the 2, no point. are you saying the ?3m includes his wages ?

Bobcat Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Yatesy, I think youre right, perhaps this isnt the place for me. Apologies ladies and gents for any offence, perhaps I just gate crashed the wrong party. Might give 606 a try- now that is desperate! For those of you not interested- Current favourite player Super Kev Favourite Managers Bill Ridding, Bruce and Sam Favourite games Reading and Preston play offs. The relief at the end. All time favourite players Eddie Hopkinson, Sir Nat, Wyn Davies, Freddie Hill, Johnny B, Franny Lee Franky W, Gudni, Eidur, Per, JJ, Youri, Super John, Ivan Thank you for putting up with a sentimental old fool. Might see you at Chelsea. . Russell don't give up, there are a number of us that have been on here since it's conception, of late the lunatics seem to have taken over the asylum and the dozen or so that seem to openly support Megson despite some of his obvious failings are being allowed to run riot and berate anyone who doesn't share their viewpoint....if the mods are happy for a once great forum to be populated by this kind of poster then who am i to comment? Having said that one Mod is perhaps the biggest contributor to some of the biggest load of tosh seen on this site.. eh cas? That is why a majority of us have now resorted to viewing this forum and chuckling away to ourselves with the utter drivel spouted.... Believe me there are far more of us with a foot in your camp, than the megson is god and walks on water camp.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pablo Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 are you saying the ?3m includes his wages ? No. We, aparently Doubled his 15k a week wage = ?1.5 Million a year, lets say ?2 Million after bonus's. That's ?5 Million a year he costs, not exactly breaking the bank, and a good way I think, to be buying on "potential". If he doesn't work, then we sell him back to Liege for a fraction of the Final ?15 Million pound package. If he is a success's, then its a snip.

Traf Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 I didn't want him. I think he's doing a reasonable job. There's probably better out there ( I don't know who or where, though) But he's here, so I'll back him and reassess in May. If that makes me in the "Megson is God" camp, so be it.

Moderators Carlos Posted March 24, 2009 Moderators Share Posted March 24, 2009 Don't give up on the site Russell, there are a few on here who seem to delight in vetting new members, however, that will settle down, no need to rise to the bait, we need a wider range of poster opinions. You sound like a good and true white, that is good enough for me, welcome aboard. Sorry but this doesn't seem to be the case here. What a sad, miserable bunch of dickheads some of you are on here. That's not going to enamor you to anyone or do you any favours is it? No vetting required here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

juewanderer Posted March 24, 2009 Share Posted March 24, 2009 Yet another post about this site appearing on Rivals, this time Russell is mentioned on it. blink.gif I wonder.....if this lot were traffic wardens in a previous existence? http://www.wanderersways.com/forum/index.p...=53632&st=0 Starts with someone called 'Russell Sprout' putting forward a perfectly polite and reasoned argument about Megson's limitations. The usual suspects then accuse him of being an existing member using a different alias to wind them up (he's not) He's then accused of only going 'since 1995' (he actually started going in 1957) and finally he's told that his 'stay will be a short one' if he's only there to 'have a go at people'! So much for the idea that 'any view of the club is allowed on there providing you back it up with reasoned argument' eh? http://www.rivals.net/Forum/pgePosts.aspx?...03&clubId=9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Carlos Posted March 24, 2009 Moderators Share Posted March 24, 2009 There's enough out of context and inaccurate quotes in there to make the BN proud. A prime example of someone twisting things to their own end.

The problem I have with the anti-megson bunch is that they only have one point of view, which I can take as long as they back it up with a well rounded opinion but most dont, a great many of us can see what hes trying to do, alright it doesn't always work, yes he as had a pop at the fans which maybe was not the best thing to do, but again I can see why he did it. It it was a school report I would give Megson a c+ with a note saying plenty of room for improvment, and I think it will come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
