I see this kind of argument a lot - 10m for 120m - I think it overlooks the other costs that might be involved!

Indeed, sadly there is no guarantee of promotion. If there was I daresay we (well Uncle Tone) would have gone REALLY large when Gustavo or Oscar was in charge,

He's no loss, as he wouldn't pass your old man's test of a striker anyway!

His fee is 73,997,535.01 Danish Krone, which is where I think the confusion lies.

But where does Milan Baros come into all this?

Plus it overlooks the fact that the gamble might not work.
Never mind, it's Tony's money, plenty more where that came from

Which was the point we were making - you were trying to correct someone because you thought they were correct. They said (according to you) it was £7m. You said that it wasn't, it was £7m.
Do you not think we were keeping our powder dry to see what happened with FFP, and now that we've seen that it's all a big load of bollocks that we're starting to really spend?

Things have improved on that front since Murphy has taken over. Not that it couldn't get better.

That definitely shows, by the commas as 700m I was pointing out that the last two zeros showed no pence but should have been precced by a full stop to show it s obviously it wasnt 700m. I think it is best let the matter drop now £7m or not I think it is a smokescreen for somebodyu else who we are going to buy.

Stephens can actually put an absolute worldy of a free kick in there (like Ips away), the issue is he's so inconsistent! At least he tends to put the ball in at pace with some bend (admittedly often straight to the first man), whereas we used to do those horrid 'floaty' free kicks and corners which are hard to attack / get power on to...

The best set piece kicker we have fails in other areas Holla.

So when I asked if you seriously thought something thought it worked out as £700m, why did you say you read it as £7m? Hole and digging spring to mind.

I have already answered that as £7m with 2 zeros for the pence as in £1.00p

Yup. Agree with all this. The problem is that Stephens seems to have become more 'inconsistent', by which I mean they crop up once in a blue moon, whereas corners that hit the first man are ten-a-penny.
I also agree with [MENTION=3975]ben[/MENTION]'sGrandad that Holla's the best set-piece specialist at the club -- remember those goals Dunk scored in the first half of last season? most were taken by Holla -- but that's not a rationale for his inclusion in the squad, let alone the team. It may be a rationale for really focusing on how good any 'second striker' (as in competition for Baldock) is at set-pieces when drawing up, and ordering, a shortlist.

By any chance can we move on from the 700m, £7m, £7000,000,00, €10,000,000.00 talk/rubbish?
