    A source would be welcome for that, Pboro. But you probably are the source.

    It's a story in the express - http://www.express.co.uk/sport/footb...r-Rafa-Benitez

    It also doesn't say that Townsend is his first signing, it says that deal could be resurrected.

    The Mag has pointed out the writer in question (Neil Fissler) specialises in writing about rugby and is a Millwall fan so may not really be the best place source to trust

    Aye, but why should that get in the way of having a go at Rafa

    IF A SALE HAPPENS... IF!

    I'd have Townsend back.

    We're not gonna go from buying Joselu to buying Neymar, and Townsend is a player that has shown he will respond well to Rafa, and works hard in the team for Rafa.

    If we were to get 500M how many players do you think we have that would keep a place in a team trying to break into the top 6?

    We couldn't buy a top 4 squad with 500M these days.

    of course it could be the right figure for total outlay - price of nufc purchase plus transfer kitty
