Very happy.<BR/><BR/>I did chuckle at the fact that Levy reported us to the FA for impropriety when the manner in which he heisted Ramos from his Spanish perch was equally disreputable.Lingering Bursitishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08920559369649445481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-66336279957971811742008-07-30T09:58:00.000-04:002008-07-30T09:58:00.000-04:00SvenI disagree with that.

That is pretty good as realistically with our wage structure and capacity etc we want to be "The best of the rest" We are still not in a position to compete with the Top 4 on a consisten basisBentPavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08225748128499405759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-58447471874898423382008-07-30T09:32:00.000-04:002008-07-30T09:32:00.000-04:00"We argue about the selling of Carrick, Keane, ber..."<I>We argue about the selling of Carrick, Keane, berbatov etc as either necessary or a sign of no ambition."</I><BR/><BR/>Or, it could be your squad simply continues to underachieve and isn't as good as you think it is.(even before selling -- last season, for instance)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-71388512564246565602008-07-30T09:06:00.000-04:002008-07-30T09:06:00.000-04:00Lingering,You should be chuffed at the Keane acqui...Lingering,<BR/><BR/>You should be chuffed at the Keane acquisition. Being smug about your "Big" club supremacy does not endear you to the rest of us. We are in sound financial position and once Berbatov is gone you are talking about 48 million pounds on a combined 17.5 million pound investment btwn he and Keano. We are all gutted about the loss of Keane but we cannot mortgage our future on buying and buying to catch up. Its not that easy. Look at Leeds. We argue about the selling of Carrick, Keane, berbatov etc as either necessary or a sign of no ambition. Its not as cut and dry as that. We only have a capacity of 34k so even with our big fanbase you can only sell so many kits etc. Sometimes you need to sell 2 stars so you can bring in 3-4 quality players.BentPavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08225748128499405759noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4234337357347181796.post-31510852147621442142008-07-30T08:42:00.000-04:002008-07-30T08:42:00.000-04:00Likely: you and "Dimitar Bent" are cute.

With Hutton and Bale bombing down the wings while The King of White Hart Lane and Woody watch the back things arent that bad. D Bent will get his chance. Judging by last night he will take them. Pray we pip Liverpool for 4th on the last day of the season.
