    I think you’re referring to my favourite quote of all time.
    When pulled over by police and asked why he had £5000 in the glove box, he said “Because I’m rich”. Brilliant!!

    I was just about to say they’d signed him before or they owned the club when he was there so wouldn’t be so unbelievable if we did manage to strike a deal with him

    Must have a load of pies the club need shifting, he wouldn't last 5 minutes in a high press hard work team

    Mario is bonkers and would have been a great signing. He would have had the chance to earn a big move elsewhere and his experience would have been invaluable to our young squad and we need a striker. It's a shame it doesn't look like happening now.

    Yeah we need a striker but we are doing okay and it's nearly January. Balotelli is an idiot and personally I wouldn't want him anywhere near our young players

    Paddy Power: Would you like to lose more money than you can afford with Paddy Power, the banter-rich and not-at-all-sinister betting company, but have us restrict you to 11p bets if you start winning?

    Baka: No.

    Paddy Power: Fair enough.

    Probably wanted at least 5 figures a week and we were out.

    If reports are to be believed he was on 25k a week basic last season at Brescia.

    Like me asking out Holly Willoughby, it doesn't hurt to ask.

    But the response might hurt. :).
    Thinking out aloud. I had those responses more often than I care to remember as a teen. :oops::mad::)

    If a deal could have been sorted that did not hurt us financially, then I would have welcomed it , being that I assume he would be putting himself in the shop window & at Championship level you would think he would be very productive . I also believe it would be a good PR move from our owners, showing that they are willing to go away from the original transfer parameters & that they are willing to be flexible in their approach , bring it on Mr Conway .

    He'd want more a week that the rest of the squad combined, think it will have been one of the shortest phone conversations Dane has ever had!!!

    1.5m for the year. When you compare to transfer fee + wages it’s really not bad.

    No resell value though.

    Cannot understand some of the clamour surrounding this guy. He seems like a complete idiot, disrespectful and a destabilizing influence wherever he goes. Why some on here think that is potentially great is beyond me.
