Yeah, the dodgy deal is done, with no one still the wiser as to who owns the registration of the player, or on what basis West Ham can claim to have owned the rights and only been paid £2.5m for him.
Here's hoping he's as big a success at The Swamp as their last attacking Argentinian, a Mr JS Veron.
Meanwhile, on the proper side of Manchester, City today signed their 8th new player of the Sven Goran Eriksson era, so I'm taking a pair of binoculars and my Observer Book of European Footballers to tomorrow's friendly against Valencia.
"The players come from all over the world, the money from deep underneath the Persian Gulf, but, as another, older City poster campaign put it, this is their city. They may now exist in the global spotlight, but they intend to keep it that way."

Top ten this season, matey.
Maybe we could lend you some of our youth players, get you promoted

I'm crying, I really am
Still, with my old employers as the administrators, anything is likely to happen. The last club that they administered got so far up s*** creek that they had to declare themselves bankrupt and drop out of the Scottish League (they being Airdrieonians) and takeover another bust club (Clydebank) to reconstitute themselves.
One of my friends worked in their Glasgow office at the time, and said that being picketed by irate football supporters did little to improve her day.

mess with them all you want! I'm a big boy. Wednesday will be midtable with their inept chairman and Bayern will win the UEFA Cup. That's just how it is!Boltman wrote:Damn you!fsquid wrote:City will still be shite.

Manchester proper is the squad, screw elsewhere!
You don't see me messing with your fave team!

Well done on beating the mighty Eintracht Braunschweig on pens in the Pokal, aren't they in one of the RegionalLiga's ?

Oh, and our progressive European comrades once again display the class and sophistication which is the hallmark of the old world. Ugly Americans continue to have much to learn
