Apparently we bid 6mil for Cahill

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Nothing to backtrack on - the £6m figure is FALSE, go listen to the Arsenal press conference...thats the team you support right?

Nothing is black and white in negotiations as i said above - my point was people were crying over a 6m offer.....believing the media.....and its false!

Wenger has said its false, il believe my own club before some fat northerner who knows his main asset is likely to leave on a free next year if he doesnt get a good price.
And here are some more things our honest club has said

'There will be significant transfer activity' (Gazidis)
'We are moving to the Emirates to compete with the elite' (Hill Wood)
'We don't want his sort' (Hill Wood again, on Kroenke - before selling to Kroenke!)
'We will remain English owned' (Ken Friar - before becoming Yank owned)
'I have significant funds' (Wenger - before the AKBs contradict what their leader says and claim he Has no money! Do you believe him or not then?)

Carry on though BDB, you might even beat Usain Bolt in a backwards race...

You don't know with categorical proof that it is false, do you?

You're right. The Arsenal Press Conference said it! IT MUST BE TRUE THEN
REAL FANS BELIEVE EVERY SINGLE MORCEL OF SHIT THEY ARE BLINDLY FED AND QUESTION NOTHING!

In other news, it was confirmed that everything said in last week's Chinese Communist Party press conference was 100% factual.

Im no Wenger lover - becoming more and more disallusioned


BUT the media have it in for us at the moment - and im intelligent enough to make my own mind up about what I think is right and wrong - the £6 offer is False, i thought it at the time, and the club have stated that now.

Im not saying we havnt bid below the asking price - its how all negotations start esp for a player who has a year on his contract and is inclined to move away from his current club, but it winds me up when people have a go at the club when they are being spoon fed rubbish and cant actually take a step back and think it might not be true!

As i say, im no Wenger apologist, if we dont sign anyone il want him gone...but im not going to have a pop at him over something that isnt true.

The idiot count on here is increasing massively!

Again, you do not have categorical proof that it is false.

Let's say it may be £7m, as the Guardian says. Then that is still derisory, but is not £6m.

I think we can all assume that anything below £10m we can call derisory and be pretty pissed off that Arsenal weuld bid that much, should it be the case.

I agree with this. Babatunde, you make some excellent points at times, mate. But you need to remember those that don't agree with you are still Gooners.

BDB- you still believe the shit that comes out of wenger's mouth? how long will it take you to wake up and smell the coffee? what has wenger done to earn your trust. the man lies daily- he is a compulsive liar. remember cesc's injury, vermaelen's too, saying he's going to sign someone etc.

Arsenal have said it wasnt £6m, Bolton have never said its £6m like some have said - the media seem to have made this up!

As i say, negotiations are a game - but ive seen lots of rumours it was between 9-11 which im thinking is most likely. Im sure we have bid low, its what we do but i doubt it was as low as that - Bolton want 18-20

Bolton will not be happy with any bids will they, they will want to entice other clubs to come in and start a bidding war so will go public - something Arsenal do not do, not a Wenger trait, historically we have never gone public - so for us to come out and say the £6m is false is good enough for me.

You are so far in wenger rose tinter land, you cant see what’s going on!!!!

Are you choosing to ignore the quote from wenger about not signing anybody if other clubs wont listen to bids?

What kind of excuse is that?


I welcome the day for someone to prove me wrong, tell me I am *word censored* and say “I told you soâ€

maybe its the timing of your defence. But right now NO SELF RESPECTED GOONER should be accepting whats going on at our club

yes the media are making it worse, but its all down to wenger and his stubbornness and that’s FACT

We have money, lots of it FACT

We are a big club FACT

If Bolton want 17 mil – PAY IT

Then go get a midfielder. This is joke and our desperation is all down to wenger in the first place.

I really don’t get how anyone can defend him in anyway. Has he earnt his wages this summer?
