The only thing I can think of is that Barry has been told exactly who their targets are this summer and he's convinced (or been convinced) that they will have a competitive team by the start of next season. If that's not the case then I agree, he's a money-grabbing b*stard who's pretty much thrown away any hope of a half-decent England career or ever winning any silverware domestically in order to line his pockets.

As for Tony Adams, I don't think he would have made unfounded claims he had been contacted about the Celtic job if he hadn't been in talks with them. Why would anybody do that?!?

It's blatantly media spin to cause a stir and he either never made the claims in the first place or Celtic have been talking to him and the media is trying say they are denying it. I vote for the former and I hate how vindictive the media is when it comes to defamation of character.

Place your bets on where Kaka will end up though. The last I heard Real offered £63m and Chelsea have come in with £73.5m.

Personally, I'd like to see United oust Ronaldo to Real and step in to the mix to sign Kaka - but then I would rather see Kaka at Old Trafford than the likes of Real or Chelski to be honest! :D

I agree with you about Barry.

Liverpool tried to put a bid in at the last minute but he had already passed his medical AND signed. I'm happy we didn't get him because I want Alonso to stay and I think he will now seens as Barry has gone.

Kaka won't leave I don't think. It's his dad/agent who wants him to go so he can get a bit of money.

Rumours have it that Liverpool want Distin for 2m as back up now that Sami Hyypia has left. Meh, not really bothered tbh. How can we keep Skrtel, Agger, Carra & Distin happy?

Someone is not telling the truth! ;)

Lots of transfer news going on. Adebayor could be going to AC, Distin to Liverpool, West Ham want to buy Fanni hahahaha.

Everton were linked with Fanni but i believe he prefers a move to Liverpool. He'll be right at home with all the other pussies haha. Ok that was shit.......:rolleyes:

I was reading before about the debt Liverpool have. Any of you reds worried?

I bet they don't have their new stadium by 2012 that's for sure!

Awful joke. :p

Yeah, I'm worried, but Man U are in 700m debt or something, so not that worried.

As toy our post RS8MBOR8, didn't ever think the staidum would be built by 2012 anyway.

To be honest mate, i think Utd are the exception to the rule. I know they are in debt and have to repay a fortune each year, but their revenue is greater than yours, plus they are continuously successful in terms of trophies. Reading The Echo tonight, it sounds like Liverpool need to be very careful.

Yeah, I know, but they're double in debt that we are. I hate are owners, really really do.

I think Jeeper knows that United are in double the amount of debt than what Liverpool are mate. But the point he is trying to make is that it's still not as critical or worrying for them than what it is for us. And it certainly won't affect or hamper their spending budget during the summer like it will ours. Obviously unless something is done or new investment is brought in. Regarding the new stadium getting built well you're right and building work on it had been delayed until 2012. But from what I've heard that isn't even gonna happen now unless the American clowns are completely bought out and for me the sooner the better.
