I just scrolled through Nixon's tweets and he reckons Benrahma is in the £30m range HAHAHA. Give me a ******* break already. What else is there to talk about? so far, this window is dryer than a nun’s chuff 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntrimBlack Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Here we go again. Going to be another 150 pages for a journalist reporting speculation. To be fair, the Reluctant Rashica thread was quite entertaining, but I am not sure it is a good idea to have a thread for every player we are linked to without any believable quotes. Use to be when you saw a thread for a player it was because he had signed or was about to. You cannot say that about any of these threads. I miss that excitement. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, the restrictions on what basis you can create a speculation thread seem to have loosened this season. Thought these things used to get locked down within minutes of being opened 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That code doesn't work if you want a name/number on your shirt. To get 10% off your entire order automatically you put a made up name and email where it says "sign up & save 10%". Also, when I bought the home I got 5% on top of that back via TopCashBack, away was only 1.7%, but still better than sweet fa. You put your real email and name info when you go through to the order page. Edited August 23, 2020 by Spray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aston_Villan4 Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Edouard is the main guy I want Villa to sign this window. He should be excited about joining Villa. At the very least he can use the move as a stepping stone and we can profit enormously off of it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

troon_villan Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 I understand to an extent why the Rashica thread was opened but at the same time it should have been locked long before now. This thread seems to have slightly stronger foundations given it's come from Alan Nixon who at least has a history of getting Villa stories correct (see previous comments). FWIW, I think Villa would be a hard sell to Edouard. If we're the only club in for him then fair enough but I think that's pretty unlikely. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone at celtic knows every player they got always, absolutely always, will be lost if the PL comes knocking. Whoever the club may be. Now close this and wait for proper links.

Mazrim Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Celtic can get ****. I hate them. All that sectarian bollocks, disrespecting the poppy, dishonouring British armed forces that thousands of Scottish soldiers served and died in. They can eat a bag of dicks. And I say this as a Catholic from an Irish family. I'd pay 30m to take their pride and joy off them and upset them. Bargain. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sne Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 I'd love for us to be able to add one (or more) of our fringe players into any potential deal but I imagine the wages would be a stumbling block. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AvonVillain Posted August 23, 2020 Share Posted August 23, 2020 Best thing for me about seeing Edouard trending on Twitter is that the thread is littered with the great works of one of my favourite artists; Édouard Manet. The very worst, is the endless stupidity, sarcasm, laugh-cry emoji's and absolute cold certainty of people over the mindset of a 22 year old professional football player.
