Talksh*te reported last year that Higgy was in London doing a medical with us.........we all know how that ended up. Talksh*te scoops are like The Star and Caught offside complete bo**ocks
Unless you believe the story that Wonga changed his mind AFTER the medical and deal had been agreed initially.......he is infamous for changing his mind in deals, there have been a few stories about it over the years. :roll:

Because people put "he isn't coming" and some smiley flags waving a scarf it is considered funny. It may have been the first time but it's been going on for months.

It is part in jest and part serious cos, lets fact it, most transfer rumours around our club do turn out to be pure bullshit anyway. Seriously though lads, if comments like that piss you off then you need to learn to chill out - there is enough turmoil supporting AFC nowadays without getting bent out of shape over stuff like this, and for most of us it brings some fun to a stressful time for us 8)

Oh don't get me wrong, I agree that pretty much every name isn't coming ( the amount of pages on this thread prove that )
and it was funny at first. I'm just getting a bit bored with it every time I come on here whilst I should be working.

Reading the same thing every post is nearly making me do more work :banghead:

I expect us to sign no one of any proven pedigree whatsoever ,I believe that winning the Cup that given him his own self justification that his ludicrous policies have paid off and we will buy a gaggle of has beens and wannabees to shore up the leaking ship !

LOL Fellaini seems to be available for 12m :barscarf:

He was utter shit in Manu, but would you take him now for that price if that's possible?
