To balance that out Advocaat had a much larger cheque book relative to modern transfer prices. It was a time where £5M bought you almost guaranteed quality. Nowadays that kind of spend actually gets you journeymen. Can you imagine us signing the Dutch national team left-back at present? 

Probably not mate.....Timbre went to Arsenal for around £40 million.....that's it a nutshell 

[Of all the new players]

You have to add in Cantwell & Raskin to the mix so effectively that is 5 out 11.....it does seem strange mind you that we chased Danilo for weeks and paid 6million euros for him to continue on the bench

Advocaat would have hooked him after 20-30 mins btw. He was *that* bad.

TBF I doubt he would have been signed in the Advocaat era....yes I know we did sign some duds but the profile was of much higher standard than where Cifuentes is currently at

He never really done well at anytime or impressed when he started, loved a goal v Motherwell 

The one game that stands out was a europa game away in Poland, he led the line brilliantly that night and scored a good goal in a 2-0 win....other than that he never really done well when he started

Stuart Lovell better watch himself....using terminology like "lost the plot" & "bombscare" could see some highly sensitive people taking offence to this

Not at all. I used to use language all the time that I have taken out of my vocabulary as it's wrong.

That's kinda my point on here.

Language about disability, sexual orientation etc. You can learn and unlearn terms that are suitable and not.

Years ago I did use the term 'poof' as an insult, and have not for years since because I know it's homophobic.

It's pretty easy to follow.

Well the second last paragraph is a pure lie as you used the word poof to insult a poster in the politics thread as shown in the other thread

You really should quit while you are losing this argument....you have spouted a lot of nonesense and proved yourself to be very hypocritical on the subject while insulting an elderly family member of another poster....you will have better days in the forum that's for sure

Best for all parties, hopefully he does well and gives us the option to bring a better player back into the fold or more clubs willing to pay money for him

I'm hearing on good authority from inside Rugby park that the tinkers put an official letter of complaint to Kilmarnock about the ball boys being too slow in returning the ball

Even for them that is a new low

The thing is we knew early on Kent was not going to sign a new contract he should have been dropped and Matondo played.

In truth Kent should have been dropped on form alone

Great defensive header, but really not offering much output in an attacking sense. I’d have been raging at Matondo if I was him. 

He was.....along the lines of "give me the fookin ball"

Big fan of the big man. Decision making and composure could be worked on but he causes the opposition havoc. 

Good option to have. 

Early diagnosis of his ability may have been a bit premature, totally agree about his decision making...when that improves he will be an asset to us big time, Matondo had to play him in for what would have been a tap in

And how did they get on again last season? Or the season before that? 

The season before they won two cups, beat in the champions league final and lost the league on the last day....hardly a disaster....very much like our 2008 campaign 

[Matondo]

Still early days to be hailing Rabbis redemption as complete but there are definite signs he could turn this round, I know that was his first goal the other night but he has been a tad unfortunate not to have scored last season with some decent efforts....his finish the other night was absolute class....not wanting to compare but that was a cool composed finish that was evidently missing from wee fashions game

Was that Gordon Parks?

He talks shite in the papers so no change there

Tonight is his first start since May. He was out with an ankle injury so bound to be a bit rusty tonight. He isn't pish but definitely not good enough for us either. 

Maybe so, last week he came off the bench and he was just the same, I just don't see it with him mate

I'm shocked at that mate...thought he was a certainty with his 80k a week salary 

[*****Conference League 23/24 Thread*****]

Barrie Mckay is an enigma, I remember some posters shouting about us re-signing him...I genuinely think he offers very little, constantly runs into players and very rarely completes what ever pass he attempts....in a nutshell he is pish

[*****Conference League 23/24 Thread*****]

A lot of people thought Villa were a tinpot club when Gerrard went to them.....now people are bigging them up big time cos they scudded the junkies 

Villa have always been a big club with a decent sized fan base but even they are dwarfed by the crazy monies on offer to the current crop of supposed big clubs

I haven’t twisted anything. You’ve repeatedly claimed I’ve said things which I haven’t - the last being that ‘I want Astro at Ibrox’. If you’re too fucking stupid to understand a simple sentence, that’s not my problem. 

Wrong again.....I have admitted that I worded my initial quote Wrong....if you are now denying that you said it wouldn't bother you if we replaced grass with astro then I'm at a loss at how much of a fanny you want to be.....for the last time pack it in, you know you are trolling, I've asked you to annoy some other cunt but you insist in replying and trying to insult me, you are behaving like a fucking 8yr old
