First topic message reminder :

Please can anyone who is in the realistic league and can see this please post below!!

Have put the tactics together for each fixture, typically my boss had to stand behind me while talking to someone else so it took longer than planned

Norwich are gonna beat Utd. I BELIEVE AND THEY BELIEVE!

That's all well and good, but really you need the voters to BELIEVE.

And if you get one win vote, it's probably Gregers

I had great plans to do mine last night, then booted up my laptop and the fecker froze solid, I'd left my ipad at work so was stuck with the phone and an hour. Ended up pretty much a cut n paste job when I was going to go 4-5-1 and play for the draw.
As it is though it's hardly going to lose by 4 or 5 or that Arsenal aren't going to win by a similar margin so should be okay.

I INSTALLED THE GREAT WAR SPIRIT INTO THEM! WITH 3,000 OF THE TRAVELLING YELLOW ARMY WE SHALL NEVER BE DEFEATED!

Any progress with organising the FA Cup final? I can do the live texts together, kill two birds with one stone, maybe do it tomorrow night?

How many predos you got in Trebs? Now gonna do mine

Got some, six I think which isn't too bad.

If the FA Cup wants to be done through a live text, I'll do it all tomorrow, if not, then I'll do league final tonight.

Up to GSC then!

I say do the league final day tonight, then GSC and I will do the Cup Final in a day or two. Rely on people voting again.

Okay, that's fine, it's up to you and GSC really

Predos sent to you Trebs

Admin section = viewable. Cheers Hero

So who can view this?

brah

Great stuff, I've asked Hero for it to be us three and Enigma in admin.

Can anyone else do sticky / announcement threads? Hero can't get my permissions to work and I'll have to ask someone else to have a look if not.

Nah, I can edit posts etc but nothing else

Given its 5 in a week this week, should we not limit to 2 a day so the first 2-3 dont take everyone?

No, first-come, first-served is the rule. And I'm going to be so busy at work that I won't be responding quickly anyway

I'm in the library all day so I'll stick up responses when they're up

Bulls link says 9m fee agreed with Lisbon.

Olly's says 12m and I'm not sure VW was using Norwich as anything more than a decoy. Open to persuasion though.

Yes to Nando

Here are my thoughts:

Bendtner to Stoke, £6m
Fine with the move, but £6m is a bit low for an in-league move. I'd expect Arsenal to demand more like £7.5m-£8m.

Ricky Van Wolfswinkel to Norwich, £10m
Same as you, I think £12m, and that he was just using them. But it nearly happened too, so I think if Olly can cough up the extra £2m, he can have him.

Davide Astori to Southampton, £12m
FINE

Yeah agreed more money and fine on the last

I think it would be worth making a few of the pages should be changed to sticky if/when a mod can do it, pages like the homepage, releases, foreign's etc... just makes the layout easier and more clean.

Agreed - but I've asked Hero 55 times and for some reason, he can't get the permissions to save so that I can do that.

Is there a nominated mod on 606v2 that we can PM for help?

Can't we just make a player offers page then ask Hero to sticky them himself?

Fanni: I'm not entirely sure about. The player wants a move but hes played basically every minute for Marseille and has a contract for 2.5 years. SO I'd lean towards 4m given his TM value is 3.1m and in the absence of a fee from a credible scource.

Lescott: Think he was only ever off on loan. Available but again, think City might want to recoup more of the 24m or so they paid Everton. Stretch to 10m given theyd also dump his wages.

Wanyama: Think hes aiming for CL football + would probs be north of 10m.

No on Defoe, hes Spurs' main striker

Altintop: No, happy earning a fair whack in Turkey i suspect

Beckham: No almost as much for Bulls sake as anything

Bull's two:

Altintop, £2m = NO - worth a LOT more, Gala have become a powerhouse this month, and he's only this season moved there.
Beckham, £800k = NO - just moved teams to a CL team no less.

Yes to Lescott

Just to confirm, we ARE allowing loans for players, providing it's realistic. So Lescott is a yes, and someone like Benayoun or Malouda would also be a yes for a smaller fee.

Ok then.

Benayoun - £2m - YES
Guidetti - £1m loan fee - I'd stretch this to a £1.5m loan fee myself, he scores goals for fun.

Benayoun: Yes, Chelsea would happily offload.

Guidetti: No I think, Mancini likes 4 Strikers and rejected some loan offers for him.

Though from the point of view I allowed Lescott I guess I'd have to say yes to Guidetti on reflection

Jenkinson-No, Wenger doesn't want to release him on loan with Sagna being meh

Barton - NO. The fee is fine, but he's on loan at Marseille and doing well there. You can't renege on loan deals just to sell someone.

Jenkinson - NO. Arsenal wouldn't let their reserve RB go out on loan at such a crucial stage of the season.

Forest would, but yeah no to Barton

Can't say I'm sold on Biglia. Hes available like every window and never goes anywhere.

Lucas Biglia, £2m loan fee to Norwich - NO - linked to Arsenal and Liverpool in the window, destined for a much bigger club than Norwich.

Nando's:
Zarate, £5m - NEEDS £8m - he is available, was linked to a lot of clubs, but wouldn't be cheap.

Trebs's:
Huddlestone, £5m - YES
Stekelenburg, £5m - NEEDS £7m

Nick's:
Bertrand, £2m loan - NO - Chelsea wouldn't let their reserve LB go out on loan at this stage of the season

Olly's:
Kayal, £2m loan - YES

Marky:
Wanyama, £10m - NEEDS £12.5m - quote for Sunderland said £10m+, rumours of him leaving start at £12.5m
Mellberg, £2m - YES

Agreed

I have my bid for William Gallas on the page too GSC. Are you making any bids?

I'm not in the league. Ye to Gallas Spurs want rid

Hang on, how can you not be in the league

Enigma's:
Simon Kjær 1.5 Million - Season Long Loan - NO

Kjaer's played 16 games for Wolfsburg this season, I don't understand where that stuff has come from.

He was out of favour eariler this season. Never trusting wikipedia ever again for appearences

Haha, but even on Wikipedia it says he's played 14 times this season...

We'll wait for GSC to have his word, we're a team you know
