    Does anyone remember?

    Did we get the full £35m from Liverpool for Carroll in one go or was it in stages? From what I remember it was the full lump. Ashley even got involved saying it was all or he wasn’t leaving. If it was the full amount what has changed to accept small amounts?

    It'll be to do with the fat, greedy bastard keeping as much money as possible out of Rafa's budget and as much for himself as he can.

    If he's keeping as much as he can for himself how's the debt to him not reducing? No doubt someone will be along to put us right.

    Player sold, money hidden or instalments taken, revolving door managers who when they come in dont know WTF is going on with the bean counters or know enough about what deals were made and busines done 5 years ago, he is told a pack of lies he cant refute and so it goes on.

    They sold Torres during that window for 50mil and brought Carroll and Suarez in on deadline day if my memory serves me right. I think we - well, Ashley - got the money there and then. The rest of the season we were reliant on Leon Best and Løvenkrands
