    That''s no age.  He was a very good player no doubt.  Sympathies to his family.

    [quote user="PurpleCanary"]It''s a sad sign on just how far we have fallen as a club that those of us who were privileged to watch the likes of Bryan Conlon and John "Mighty Quinn" Manning in their pomp are now having to make do with players who score goals in competitive international tournaments.[/quote]Happy days Purple.[:D]

    6 miles south of you CANARYKING.  Bit of thunder and lightning last night   Steady rain for a bit 10pm but nowhere near enough.  Had a shower this morning, and a bit more thunder.  Just waiting for the bloody electric to go off which is the norm for here.

    [quote user="king canary"]The man has descended to self parody at this point- claims he''s not a ''wheeler dealer'' then spends £££, complains he hasn''t got enough players and fucks off leaving the club in a mess.[/quote]He''ll blame the dog, he usually does.

    [quote user="Crabbycanary3"]I can''t wait to see what the Juve version of the Pink Un is saying about spending that sort of money on a 33 year old.[/quote]One word Crabby.................deadwood![;)]

    [quote user="PurpleCanary"][quote user="BobLoz3"]Where are they getting the figure £55 million from in relation to how much we''ve spent this season?Isn''t that what McCarthy tried to tell them had happened?? Absolute cretins! Hilarious thread made even more entertaining with WB''s presence[/quote]Not only is that figure way out, we have had a minus net spend this season. We spent £8.8m in the summer (with a potential £2.5m of add-ons) and received £16.9m (with a potential extra £2.7m). In January we bought McLean, Hernandez and Srbeny, but sold Pritchard and Jerome, undoubtedly for more than we paid for those three incomers.Some Ipswich Town fans are also falling for the "wasted millions" mantra - the idea you get so much money in the Premier League that staying there is a doddle unless a club is run criminally badly.The reality is that unless a club of Norwich City''s size does a Burnley and actively budgets for relegation the money has to be spent trying to keep afloat, and all it takes to get relegated is one not-perfect managerial choice, or one bad transfer window.The bottom four in the PL this season have all been held up over recent years as examples of how clubs should be sensibly run, to stay up. Southampton have had 6 consecutve seasons in the PL, Swansea 7, WBA 8 and Stoke 10. Yet three of them will probably be going down.I suppose that for Ipswich Town fans now this kind of problem is entirely academic. But if their club ever gets back to the top flight they will have to start to try to understand it.[/quote]From Wakefieldblue: "And unfortunately got banned before I could call out the claim that we''d spent £55m on players this year."

    [quote user="lappinitup"]"Why don''t you take your club and your inferior county and join the South East, you all talk like retarded mockneys and wear outlet store superdry already... so you''ll fit in well.

Keep up the good work.

    [quote user="hogesar"][quote user="king canary"]@Hogesar "Yep. I find Lincolns ''jury still out'' comment a little poor, he''s done well this season. But I guess Lee Tomlin''s late equaliser for Forest has really p*ssed him off." I get you and Lincoln don''t get along but he''s entitled to a different opinion on a player to you. [/quote]Of course he is but it''s hard to take seriously, or with much credit when he''s been proven as a Reading fan. It''s also hard to take seriously considering he spends 99% of his time on this forum criticising the club, the board, the management, the staff and the players. Most balanced people would consider that for the fee and what we''ve paid that Zimmerman has been an excellent signing.[/quote]^This

    [quote user="TIL 1010"][quote user="OldRobert"].  If you have a complaint about a remark made ''elsewhere'', make it ''elsewhere''.[/quote]There is a long history of you making jibes about the Pink Un in general and posters '' elsewhere '' so before handing out lectures i suggest if you have a grievance about some of the stuff on here you practice what you are now preaching. [/quote]Perhaps you''d be good enough to put forward the evidence of this ''long history'' of jibes against this publication and more importantly posters ''elsewhere''.  I think you are getting a little confused, my complaint on here was when you made a remark referring to me when I had not posted, or made any reference to anything on this thread.  You used me as part of some stupid feud you have with Fenway Frank, to which I objected, so don''t lecture me.  Keep your asinine feuds to yourself, and don''t involve others who are not involved, hadn''t said a word, and who don''t give a damn.  End of.
