What do you all think, Villa, Norwich & W'ham to win in a 4 x £2.50 trixie? If all come in that'll be £190 and it'll pays for our trip for the QPR game.
In GFH & McD I trust.
MOT.

Not sure about villa

Not sure about any of them but good luck pal.

Danny LS8

Iam on that

Breakdown on Bills; Villa are now 10/3, both norwich & w'ham 21/10. A £2.50 trixie returns £196 if all come in. See you all at the QPR game (hopefully!)
Villa at home, have had a good start and beat l'pool at Anfield last season.
BTW LU to win over 2.5 goals is 4/1. 1 of my 10 betting commandments is thou shall not bet on your own team but that seems a knocking bet.
MOT.

As I found out against sheff wed. Thou shall not back either an early kick off or my own team. I broke that and suffered on my acca

I personally would prefer us to sell McCormack and get Sharp on loan with Vaz Te and Gary McKay Stevens on the wings. If we sell a key player but then bring in 3 better class players then its a win win.

They are all good (ish) players in their own right but none of 'em are better class than Ross

rather keep mccormack than bring in sharp has never got more than 15 in the championship where as mccormack was second to lambert two seasons a go we just need him on form and happy unlike last season with warnock playing him out wide

Can anyone tell me what happened to motherwell's Humphrey? I saw a while back we were looking at him for a pacey wideman.

I think grayson sighned him for preston nxx ends mate . Mot

He went to blackpool mate

He signed for preston

Ah fair enough! Somehow missed that - was he out of contract? What a missed opportunity.

Do you reckon there's anything in the Gradel rumours? Where there's smoke.

I know it's is nothing to do with transfers but rumours on twitter that elland road might be getting them electronic advertising boards round the pitch and getting leather seats in the dugouts I think elland road would look far better with them and would probably save money in the long term

Can have more sponsors too. don't see it happening unless we're in the Prem though!

Mcd on a winger now
Forget mills. Relax pelts!
Forget sharp. Relax rossi boy!
Getting a bit nervous about the size of wage bill, would really like to get 3-4 out.
What winger I wonder. Saw you g winger from liverpool mentioned recently. Whoever it is, I reckon he will be young.

I think McCormack is playing a very clever game, he will go that's for certain but will leave with the reason I wanted to sign New contract but we couldn't reach an aggreement.everybody think back to when Chelsea were interested in Rooney, all of a sudden he was asking for the world holding the to ransom because he knew he could get it elsewhere, I think Ross knows he could get a better deal at Boro so therefore he's using that as a bartering tool to get a better deal with leeds.people ask yourself would he be asking for a new deal if nobody was interested in him, of course he wouldn't, so is he holding the club to ransom?, yes because he now knows he can get better somewhere else.he says he is settled and happy but he will give all that up for an extra few thousand pound a week because the wife will demand he does, and let's not forget about his agent in all this, nice chance to make himself s few quid lsgood luck Ross on your way your not bigger than the club, and hello billy sharp auaranteed 20+ goals a season man

Hes not going he's signing a new deal. Where is this sharp rumour coming from because gfh or bm have never mentioned him. vinny.

I was nodding my head to your comments to begin with. Yes he is using this for his own gain. But he will stay. We don't have to sell him don't forget we have him for 3 years. Where you lost me was you stupid comments about his wife demanding more money. How the hell do you know that, that type of comment is what will pi** him off. Secondly know one is a GUARANTEE to score you goals so let's not put all our eggs in one basket yeah

Dont give him a better deal. Keep him and run the contract down. If we get promoted, he will sign on our terms then. In 2 years time i'm hoping $2mill won't mean that much to us

Bit of a flawed arguement:
1) would he be wanting more cash if people didn't want him?
A) No. But the fact is he is playing well and has earned a new deal.
2) he's not married
3) he'll definitely stay. He said so himself!
4) show me where & when Billy Sharp regularly scored 20+ in championship

Just reading on newsnow and McDermott want one maybe two wingers that sounds good to me, not sure on the pelts mills swap because I don't think mills is a quality centre back but I could be wrong and with pelts I've seen good games and bad games but I think Colin is talking b******* when he said he's a roll Royce.
