Harryseaess Posted January 14, 2016 Author Share Posted January 14, 2016 kingrobbo with some absolutely awful posts in here. The results yesterday have been good in one sense as we're still within touching distance of Spurs but poor in another as we should have been 2 points closer. As Redshift alluded to, with Ferguson in charge of this team we'd have walked the league this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sebsy Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 robbo, we get you were just trying to have a bit of fun, but regardless of that you have spectacularly failed to actually use anagrams in the first 2/3 efforts where you present us with anagrams.

Roy Race 9 Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 yes so perhaps a win win for us we keep David and not pay over the odds for players who don't really want to come to us but will for the money.....ie ADM hoping we scout as you say the next generation of ''wonderkids'' out there, get them young keen and mold them in Utd way(hang on LVG ) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timmy Howard Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 By pay over the odds for players who don't want to come.. do you really mean "pay nothing for players who don't join despite chasing stupidly for the whole transfer window, leaving us without the positional reinforcements we need"?

RSB Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 Shouldn't be allowed to appeal those sorts of bans, it's a mockery.

ddidiodion Posted January 14, 2016 Share Posted January 14, 2016 It's a very simple solution, allow them to register players, if their appeal is unsuccessful any players they did register during the period reverts to the club that previously held it. That was if Madrid are innocent and want to appeal they can sign players without any impediment, if they aren't they don't get an unfair advantage from the appeal.

That was if Madrid are innocent and want to appeal they can sign players without any impediment, if they aren't they don't get an unfair advantage from the appeal. If you're talking about the transfer it's a possible minefield for the players involved. Wenger's whinged enough on players who transfer in January potentially playing one team three times in a season; imagine the kick off if a player signed, played against a team, then moved back and played against them again. Or if the player plays against the other club involved during the appeal period. Selling teams are punished by extension because they can't safely sign a replacement within the appeal period. Alternatively, if it's just the registration, is the change in registration completed again once the ban lapses, or do they need to renegotiate? Either way it's hard on the player who will likely have been assured (not knowing the finer details) that the appeal will succeed and they'll be free to play. At least Turan and Vidal knew what they were getting into, I'd rather do it similar to the 'frivolous appeal' punishment for FA suspensions; give CAS/FIFA on CAS guidance the right to extend the ban by a further window if the evidence is overwhelming and/or the case is severe enough. but there has to be punishments to clubs clearly breaking the rules(and there are many doing it) There is... a registration ban. Which is still a significant punishment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heartwork Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 Some United fans on Twitter reckon that if United do lose DDG they could look at Schmeichel as a replacement. In terms of sentimentality due to Peter's time at the club it would make a good story and shift GK shirts but is he definitely that good? He's definitely upper-Prem tier but CL level?

Guest Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 The obvious answer is he is thriving in an environment that suits him, no big club will pick him up especially a team whose main problem isn't shifting replica shirts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heartwork Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 TBH I've rated Schmeichel fairly highly since his days at Man City and never really understood why he stepped down to League Two and then the Championship. Was always Prem tier for me and has proved it a lot and is a good shout for more Denmark caps. I'm not sure if he'll ever be good enough for the "top" sides although Leicester's European run next season might show what he can do on the European stage.
