    I was saying ( if you’d taken time to read it) I’d be fed up as a Sheffield United fan losing players to fooking Bournemouth . If there’s anything that tells you there’s something wrong then it’s big clubs losing players to tiny clubs just for the pennies .

    Where do you get that from? They've made themselves a solid Premier League side with only 4 or 5 signings over £10 million each. On the other hand last year we bought Thiam, McGeehan, Potts, Mallan and others for good money (by our standard) and got relegated.

    Some people on here seem to think we're Real Madrid.

    No. The reason I say that is cos nothing has changed.

    Wonder what Brian the blunt has to say for himself. He was taking the piss January before last. Apparently they don't sell all their best players.

    Yes I knew what you were saying - but my point is that Bournemouth are a Premiership side and the Blunts are an average championship side.
    Yes If I was a blunt I would be unhappy - though maybe not if there is 12 million fee for the club, but the idea of a player moving from a lower league to a higher one isnt strange. If I was a blunt I would be just as unhappy if he was going to Man U or Liverpool as to Bournemouth
    or do you think "Big clubs" like the Blunts or for example Sunderland should always be above smaller clubs and good players can only move one way?
