latest on loovens

what would you do?

loovens can walk next year for nowt. he doesn't want to stay.

Grimsdale FFS pay the 800,000 for boyd.

We'll still have a shed of money for a centre half.

 

[bendeus]

Pathetic. At this rate we'll end up with no fucking striker and a wantaway defensive lynchpin halfheartedly playing out his contract, and with no recompense at the end.

I wonder whether the Ramsay money will be mysteriously 'absorbed' over the same period as well?

City Guimareas goals from last night.

McCormack took the goals well. Especially the second.

He's gonna be the star man this year mate,fifteen goals plus I reckon, and his Scottish cousin Thommo will be an able supporter netting atleast ten this term.

Anyway get down the pub sometime ya antisocial bastard!!

My season ticket arrived yesterday. I love it when that happens. Seeing that envelope full of a season that could be wonderfull. At this stage when none of those games have been played the sky is the limit.

Having kids and being antisocial go together like a clarks pie and chips mate,

One on the way, 1927?

Due next friday, have told Mrs27 to push it out early or to suck him in for a few days cos I ain't missing Ajax and The Men They Couldnt Hang!!

 

[1927]

1-0 to City. Great goal by Joe. We are looking pretty sharp imho. Comminges is going to be a fans fave, and Thommo is looking good, I really hope we give him a decent run this season as i think he will be a great partner for McCormack, and it is obvious from the cup final build up that he is the man they look to in the dressing room. If it stays like this we win the tournament!!

 

[Biffo]

'Twas a fine goal by Ledley.

 

[badlands]

we were pretty much untroubled. looked really solid in defence. heaton had fuck all to do. comminges looks like he's going to be infuriating, tho he does have real pace and crosses well. ledley looks super confident. mccormack does look good, intelligent passing, good runs, on the neg side he does look a little lightweight. thommo looked like he enjoyed himself.
gavin rae looked the weak link. if we had a fully fit scimeca and ramsey in midfield we'd be talking automatic.

 

[Gromit]

Rae has been the weak link for a long time. Either playing Ledley in midfield or splashing out on a quality midfielder is required but I Aint holding my breath for jones to realize this. He a blind to the fact.

 

[badlands]

I'll be surprised if Loovens is still with us this time tomorrow.

And well shocked if Ledley is still with us come the end of the transfer window.

I'll be surprised that we'll be blowing the chance of cashing in on Loovens. Its bad finacial business but good football business.

In theory we only lose £250k. What we paid for him.
But we're missing out on a million profit for the sake of his services for a year. Thats an expensive year but he just might be worth it to keep a solid defence for a year.

I won't be at all shocked if we don't lose Ledley. The club has been hyping him for years. They are desperate to get more money for him than he is in fact worth, trying to cash in on the hype he had briefly. Don't get me wrong, he is a good championship player who is imo being played out of position. But Premiership? I don't think he's good enough.

Congrats mate. Bendeusito the 1st is due in about 6 weeks. My only issue is whether to put the £100 at Ladbrokes on him becoming the Bluebirds' top goalscorer or on him captaining Wales to rugby world cup victory.

Split between two codes

Go for the Bluebirds mate, cos as I see it, being the same age as Oscar Joe he aint gonna get the Welsh captaincy!

 

[badlands]

Fuck me! We've had a bid for the Yank Striker, Kenny Cooper accepted!

Linky

This is a bit out of left field. He's flying in this week but it's likely that he'll also hold talks with Rosenburg too. Unfortunatley they've qualified for the champions league so he'll probably opt for them. Still, he's an excellent prospect with a ratio of a goal every other game in the MLS.

Kenny Cooper - used to play for Man Utd resreves. Seems like one of the top young US strikers after Jose Altidore who's just gone to Villareal. Still was kept out of the USA ream by Eddie Johnson who was shit for Fulham in the last half of last season.

Aye, that's him. I'm almost touching myself that we're being linked with this kind of player. It all seems so unCardiff-like. Why aren't we paying through the nose for someone like Barry Hayles or Clinton Morrison instead?

I demand an explanation for this forward thinking and bold venture into the international market. I'm pretty sure we won't get him as he's got the class and ability to walk into a lot of higher reputation clubs; however, even having the balls to go for him deserves a pat on the back imho.

TBH, I'd rather not know about potential signings like this until we've got the ink dry on the contract.

I dunno , he's a good buy for a Chmapionship club, defintely, not convincec he's muchg more than that. Which Premiership clubs have actually had more than a vague interest in him, even though he's got a UK passport and no work permit issues.

The poor sod has just recovered from a broken leg.

Besides, I don't want anyone coming along and bringing me back down to earth with things like facts and verified statistical data.

Cooperman, ftw!

 

[spacemonkey]

I like the weird spinny arm celebration thing he's got going on. Sign him up!

 

[1927]

Half time against LA Galxy and he's scored twice with one assist!!!. Its weird on Justin TV all the comments in chat are from Cardiff fans, they're must be a few of us staying up to watch the guy!!
