[Football] Raphael Dwamena RIP

[saafend_seagull]

Puts us top of the league of the clubs who have not yet spent crazy money. Together with extended contracts for key players already in the squad this should represent a solid attempt to stay in the Premier League, provided the new purchases deliver what was expected of them.

This net ballshit is so annoying.

We could have paid £500m two years ago for Messi and sold him this summer for £500m and have a net summer gain of £450m.

Something doesn't add up there, I just can't put my finger on it.

Steak at the Salt Room? Who are these monsters? It's one of the best fish restaurants in town

Agreed but it looks like Steak with the red wine and that.

 

[Marshy]

Is that what constitutes a portion of chips ?...... grim

 

[BensGrandad]

The steak looks ok but the rest of the plates look nearly empty, perhaps the rest of them had eaten theirs.

Well he's sorted out a visa, made his way to Brighton and was out last night near the beach in a restaurant eating chips with his team of agents and hangers on so I guess so.

I thought it was the rule that the priciest restaurants give the smallest portions......

 

[Stumpy Tim]

I'm not disagreeing with you. Outrageous choices from them. I've gone off this deal

Benfica winger Andre Carrillo is in UK ahead of his medical at Watford today.

The Hornets are hoping to complete a season-long deal with option to buy for the Peru international, with a work permit having already been granted.

They had deal agreed two days ago so permit for this fella was wrapped up instantly ?! Why can we never do things this simple ?

Perhaps we are learning the rules and regulations about signing foreign players and how to circumvent these rules.

 

[Marshy]

you cannot circumvent rules...

Every case is different with regard to signing players and work permits.

It's a professional footballer sized portion. They aren't supposed to eat many.

This deal was prolonged. I thought the hold up was the work permit?
