I see Boffin is out of contract in the summer - you'd have to assume he'll be looking for a new club at the end of the season

I believe not, which probably answers Pennywise's question.

Off topic, you're not that clown from IT are you?...... :?

I just presume that we never were able to spend those 10M bids we had out....I was hoping we'd actually smash our record bid for some reason...

We are saving our money for the summer for our Premiership campaign. Peter Crouch will be top of the list. 8-)

Did we actually have any 10m bids out, or was that just paper talk?

I'm just really hoping that Demba Ba had a clause in his West Ham contract which is written in microscopic text that he has to return to West Ham as soon as West Ham get promoted again. :|

Thankfully not, just a fan of this band.

I always used to skip over BG's ramblings, but I kinda miss the guy now. I seem to remember he was a fan of Maynard..?

Maynard and Morrison could be interesting - both have potential, both are looking to improve or showcase themselves. Can we keep hold of them if they do? I hope so.

Vaz Te? I have to say I have no idea about this guy - he seems to have passed me by. Is he any good? What does he bring to us (that we don't have already)?

Were there any outgoings? I was out of Europe for the last few weeks and missed a lot of the stories.

Maynard is more a 'now' player rather than potential.

Vaz Te brings Premier League experience under Allardyce at Bolton, pace, some skill and a directness at goal... he has scored 10 in the league this season from left wing but prefers right wing. My mate, who's a Barnsley fan, is gutted we signed him.

I didn't realise Hugh Jargon was banned. What happened there? (I did find the whole "pardon?" thing exceedingly annoying, tbf).

I happen to think that a winger like Snodgrass would be more important than a striker considering our current formation. But Snodgrass deal a done deal according to my source and he's never been wrong. DONT SHOOT THE MESSENGER.
Have you had a word with your source yet Dev?

Did you ever PM UTJ your source?

I bet the blowjob from Delyth was made up too :lol:
