The board have done ok so far, even if we go down it will have been our most successful period in the clubs history. Not bad when they are all stupid. None of us will ever know if the transfer targets stalled due to lack of funds or for another reason. We also wont know if a player is rubbish for us or not until they have played for us, hopefully in their correct position. This man talks sense!

If you come to a fork in the road, take it. |

Probably is if you go into a season like we did last season. But it was okay at the time apparently. We'd bought Benteke. Nothing was going to go wrong. It solved everything.

Mr Nasty, I deleted my comments. I'm hungover and not thinking in my right mind. Your probably 100% correct.

So we could purchase Sakho for 30 million and get Lucas Perez from Arsenal on a season long loan. Or we could spend 24 million on Mangala a proven flop and 10 million on Niasse who looked okay in a poor Hull side. Now I might not be a football expert but even I can see the Sakho and Perez option is far superior and cheaper than the Mangala/Niasse option. So why can't Parish and the board. If Pulis ends up getting Sakho it will be a disaster. Obviously you've taken a shoeing on this thread, but I'd also like to say Mangala is a very good player who struggled at a very high pressure club that decided defending wasn't for them. Who knows how well he can do in a defensive set up? If Liverpool had signed VvD he would find out the same I believe as they also hang their defenders out to dry in the pursuit of attacking excellence.

If we dont get Sakho every signing we make will be a panic one and not a real target. Awful way to do business

I reckon a 3rd place finish and FA Cup final appearance in four seasons just about trumps a 10th place finish and another final appearance in five.

When we do go down we'll look back fondly at our Premiership era but never consider what might have been had a stupid bunch of barstewards not been running the club. Next time FDB masterminds another $hite performance on the pitch we'll never give it a second thought because I suppose we'll get used to it?

I've got a Man sh!tty supporting mate who insists Mangala is a very good blocker - just not. Beckenbauer-eske ball playing defender. Those several million pounds could be the difference of us having an extra player. It's really not monopoly
