Will Chelsea get a % of the Bridcut sale
They released him - we didn't sign him from them.

Political agenda with sport? Not really, but I'd love to see the % of actual transfers to completely made up nonsense in the mail (before they delete the pages).
Interesting to see how many people are actually accepting of this potential deal as opposed to the same time last year, when losing Bridcutt would have seemed catastrophic & NSC would have been in meltdown at the mere prospect.
I, like seemingly many others, think we could live with it, for a reasonable fee. It's quite nice not to feel our entire season depends on one man.
Irritating how many say we can't sell as we need our best players for prem and that is worth squillions. The fact is that three clubs will get promoted this season. Yes we may be one of them and with Liam our chance will be better but.....it is important the club is run in a sensible way. So many club as chase the dream and if it fails they are in deep trouble. Look at pompy and leeds. Leeds worked on the basis of champs league every year, missed out once and are stuffed.
We nearly went bust many times in the last 20 years. Does anyone really think getting into the premier league this season is more important than the long term future of the club.
Look at other clubs like Bolton, boro etc. they are in real trouble. We don't want or need that.
Probably because a year ago our only other solid DM/CM was Hammond, a loanee. We now have about 63 of 'em.
Yep. And some decent ones amongst them. As for Buckley? He's a great player on his day, but he's been largely dire this season. Shame he got injured after what was, by all accounts, a decent performance at Blackpool, but that does seem to be the way with him. If we could sufficiently mug Sunderland off for him, then take the money and run.
I accept that all news journalists write articles, for their target readers, based on editorial guidelines, sensationalised and politicised or not. I just don't think this applies to sports journalists. There are no hidden agendas there, nor should there be.
I'm not saying I don't rate Buckley but I actually think he was quite lucky in our debut Amex season. EVERYTHING went for him. He's never been quite the same since that season.
