Unsettling, he's a downright hypocritical twat, that's what he is. It's made worse as he fucked the Rags off over the last couple seasons for their derisory offers and he's also well aware of the elapsed Fellaini buy-out clause.

It's good that Kenwright's come out with this though, it'll get a few of the Rag players wondering where they now stand, he's now turned the table back on the Rags. Can still see him selling though once they up the bid.

So, did the Rags/Gollum surpass our expectations?

Definitely exceeded all mine. From title winners to insignificant in 12 months. One hell of an achievement.

It'll be good to see what the closed-season holds for the Rags and how they are portrayed again in the media.

Will the PR bus be out in full swing or will they curtail their antics and just concentrate on their business rather than telling everybody what they are planning?

I don't know mate, the amount of drivel they spouted last season took the PR crap to disproportional levels. I think the Rag Tops have a love for both whereas the Ref's Association just had a serious squeeze on Taggart.

Seen that this morning and really thought 'WTF, it's started already'.

On a positive note, The Swamp has now been replaced with the Etihad Stadium on Sunday Supplement with Pellers picture pride of place on the set wall.

Nice.

Not wanting to tempt fate but....

(A) he comes to us, aged 31 to a team that will challenge on all 4 fronts again next season with a realistic winning at least one pot. Be with former colleagues ala Nasri, Clichy if he stays..

(B) goes to a club that have to rebuild under a yet to be appointed manager, a club that will take at least a couple more years to get back to winning ways, whilst the clock runs down on Sagna's playing career...

Well, we may have been fucked by FFP (which we can afford) but Gollum has cost them in excess of £40m

No chumps league is costing them late £30m plus £5m pay out on Gollum, that's going to put a dent in their "war chest"

I'm smiling

it's not really Gollum that cost them though is it ? he was just the daft sod that took over after BF.

A.N Other would have failed with that squad

Massively. Thought they would struggle as always thought Gollum out of his depth

Never would have had them to finish as low as 7th. Or to go out of cups in the manner they did. Or to panic buy Fellatio and Mata the way they did. Or for Bacon to basically admit he fucked up in appointing Gollum in first place.

All in all a great season of inepritude which surely wont be repeated next time round
