I can't wait till Marek plays in the first team again. He might not be perfect but he lifts the crowd by just one or two of his passes. I think he could make a difference. Him and Davies supporting the striker would be good.

[Hoop Blah]

I don't think that my criticisms are unfounded at all. That's just where we differ. That's all. We'll all have to wait and see whether Rodgers is the new Messiah or just a naughty boy weren't we.

So you don't think suggesting buying a player who isn't quite match fit as desperate is unfounded?

You don't think suggest it's 'almost like' he won't pick Coppell signings when half the team he's playing are Coppell signings is unfounded?

I'd love to hear your reasoning behind those two...

Just out of interest....any response RL?

Hi Hoop Blah - did I say it WAS desperation or smacks of desperation? Anyhoo, paying £2 million to Doncaster for a player who isn't fit/match fit/whatever you want to call it - is probably 90% of Rodgers' budget for this season I stand by my comments that I actually expect him to be something a bit special - all I've heard so far is that he's not ready/he's a bit rubbish.

[Terminal Boardom]

Well Marek must be doing something right if he's an international. I just LOL at the way Ian Royal also states stuff as if it's fact, when mainly it's just his opinion.

Actually, I find myself agreeing more with IR than most of the tards on here!

[Terminal Boardom]

Is it just remotely possible that the all action 100 mph nature of English football is not suited to Marek? Square pegs and round holes and all that...

Is there really any difference between saying it WAS or smacks of?

And you still haven't backed up why that either is or smacks of. I still can't see how you can say there is any founding in your comments.

As for Mills, I'm not sure £2m buys you something a bit special these days. I'd hope that he becomes a mainstay of the side and is good enough to mean that he is part of a very solid defence. Don't forget we just sold a defender who couldn't really get in our side for the last 3 years for £2.8m, that's £800k more than we've paid for Mills, and we reportedly got even more for Sonko didn't we?

No response on the Coppell signings comment either? I appreciate it might've been a bit of a throw away comment, I just think you could've admitted what you said was totally off the mark instead of going off on one a bit...

[CMRoyal]

He's being sold...sorry the official statement is he's injured.

BR now not expecting to lose anybody else this month, according to the Chronicle (you'll have to source the link yourselves). All who were likely to go have gone, and he expected The Legendary Harper to go too but the main man turned Wolves down. Twice.

Did you miss the bit where Mills has come from DONCASTER?

I haven't gone off on one - I've had my opinions. I certainly didn't make derisory comments to people who weren't agreeing with me. Unlike the usual suspects on here.

You said we sold Bikey for 0.8 mill more than we bought Mills for etc, but Mills has come from Doncaster and hasn't played in the Premiership - in my eyes £2 million for a player from a team such as Donny is a lot. Especially when he's not played much so far.

Actually, I think he did have a handful of appearances for Man City in the Prem, didn't he (I stand to be corrected)? In fact, that strengthens your argument because arguably he didn't make the grade. I guess we have to trust the manager's judgment on this one.

[Harpers So Solid Crew]

But £2m is his value to doncaster, so we paid it, he is still young, and had rave reviews, sounds a good deal to me.

[Harpers So Solid Crew]

Next good deal would be Beckford from Leeds for £3m, IMHO.

[Royal Lady]

and £2.8 mill was our value for Bikey.

So you agree he's probably not likely to be as good at the moment as Bikey was then?

By the way, Bikey has played 45 league games. Mills has played 99. Or did you mean not played much so far meaning the last 6 weeks!!
