Transfer Deadline Day

and Juve don't?

when were they in the premiership? and when was the last time they paid £30M out for a player.
They have spent very little this season compared to others, but been more inclined to have players come up through the ranks.

Certainly makes Robinho the most overrated player in the world

I dunno, Matty Fryatt is currently giving him a run for his money.

Pfft, Fryatt has more ability in his left flat-foot than Robinho does in his whole body

They may be the case in very recent history, not so long ago they paid 50M euro for Buffon

Berbatov is now a man utd player boooo

I'd say they deserve each other with their behaviour... but it will probably work out well for both of them. Bastards. Whatever happened to karma?

Has it actually gone through yet? not seen it confirmed anywhere... Campbell is apparently going the other way as part of the deal though

No they didn't, it was 52M euros, and worth every penny.


But the point I am making, the big clubs co own a lot of the players with the smaller clubs and when these stars go off to make their fortunes the smaller clubs benefit. We should have that system here. De Ceglie is a fine example and is back at Juve after playing last season with Siena

 

[Tamworth Fox]

Real Madrid president Ramon Calderon has confirmed that the club have sold Robinho to Manchester City and that they may try to make a big signing in January...

 

[SJN-Fox]

Right. That's it. That's your lot! Window's shut.

 

[Matt_B]

Without wanting to tempt fate then, it looks like we might be OK until Jan, when we can up the fee for any players wanting to leave.

 

[Durham Fox]

Well we won't know if Mattocks gone until tomorrow anyway

 

[Matt_B]

Well we won't know if Mattocks gone until tomorrow anyway

Thought it might be on SSN if a Prem team got him

 

[alex]

Window is, announcements aren't though....

Anyhow, no one out, no one in. Good enough for I.

We are gash at this sort of thing

true, though surely if they are selling this "be right up to date" text msg service it needs to be so, they can't sell it then not let people know until 9am tomorrow?

They aren't gonna text people at midnight

 

[alex]

Don't reckon he's gone.....

 

[Graz]

Wahey, Mattock is still here... hopefully.

And Robinho to Man City confirmed! £32.5m!

 

[Durham Fox]

Don't reckon he's gone.....

I dont either but I suspect we wouldnt know about it if we had. WHU must have at least been looking to replace McCartney
