The 8 O’Clocker: Modric Unhappy, Samba Wants Out, Remy Deal Off…

Good evening.

This window is so quiet if you close your eyes you can just see Ted Moult pondering over which feather to use. But will Arry fit the best into this the Best Performing Side Since ’61™?

“I’m staying,” Loic Remy told Canal+. “I will 100 per cent stay at Marseille until the end of the season and even the end of my contract.

“I have spoken with the president and the staff. And it would not be right for me to leave this club.

“We’ll see next summer but that’s not even in my head for now.”

Closer to home a young man by the name of Christopher Samba has handed in his notice at Blackburn Rovers. This is hardly a seismic announcement. He was quoted saying, “things have not gone as I was told , it is time for a change”.

He is probably telling the truth. I’m not familiar with every single detail of the ins and outs of the Venky Operation but as I say, ‘you don’t need to fall off a chair to know it probably hurts.’

If I was Blackburn fan I would have had more respect for them if they had simply renamed the club The Peri Peri Pirates.

But what Blackburn got were two three halfwit rumours/threats/lies about Emporer Franz Beckenbauer and Geoff Hurst or similar joining them. It would have been more credible if they’d have said that Nick Griffin was signing.

Steve Kean was recruited for his ability to say,’ yes’ and the only money they put in was to service existing debt. Oh and of course the cash they had to give the Trustees. Anyway, that’s their business. 

Modric is ‘unhappy’ says Garth Crooks in his Tean Of The Week column. I wouldn’t go for Garth’s throat though. I see in the little Croat’s body language he’s got issues. I don’t trust him and therefore I’m just hoping we get as much out of him on the pitch before next summer and then as much off the pitch for him in pounds, shillings and pence.

    Harry Hotspur is a pile of old w…k who’s got it in for Modders since the Rusky waved the cash. If the Rusky had offered you a fraction of that you would have yodelled ‘blue is the colour’ for the rest of your natural, so give it up. Get behind the boy and give him your support instead of turning stupid comments from fat old tart players into ‘the truth’.

    What rubbish about modric being tired. He barely played in europa, and we got knocked out early in the league cup.did not play the fa cup game either.

  • Doc says:

    Complaining about playing 38 games of football! What crap, what is he expecting to do, sit on the bench at Chelsea.

    Money, pure and simple, money £120K of it.

      Exactly.

      To meet a post, attempting to bring proper balance to the original headline, daily fail,
      metro- style of cut-out sensationalism, somebody just pointing out that the sentence completion – (be it BS at that) is to the # games, does constitute some too hasty vitriol from HH. Indeed the natural response to that would be the assumption of some type of sexual deprive, which i believe is perfectly within what is acceptable to put forward in this forum, and i do not think that our HH would take offence of such.
      Harsh, uncalled for, and besides some points, but thats what you get and what you want here (oh go on, you know you want it) (cue another derogatory remark from HH about spelling or ancestry or some other out of context put-down)
