Senor_Coconut Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Took almost 13 hours to be announced after the deadline closed, but Vernon left Blackpool for Colchester in a £100k deal. Still, he's clearly not good enough for us according to some on here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diego_Sideburns Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 im surprised at him going to Colchester permanently, could we not pay 100k for Vernon and we still would have had money left over from the Trotters sale How do you know we didn't make him an offer but he chose to stay at a higher level club (possibly only temporarily)?

SAV Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 Someone at BP needs to read this about half way through. (However you have to etc.....) http://www.cu-fc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News...1231189,00.html After reading that it won't be long before Benjani is at the council house Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laticsrblue Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 (edited) Are we in for a cut of that £100K I wonder? Didn't he leave us on a free. And It was Liverpool who jumped the gun on the Austrian lad's deal. We only put it on our website after they had it on theirs. I think there would have been a few moaners about being the last to know if it had all gone through and Latics had only put it on their site several hours after Liverpool.

(However you have to etc.....) http://www.cu-fc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/News...1231189,00.html To be fair, if you're eluding to the Liverpool striker, it was they who went ahead in announcing it. The Latics merely followed their lead 20 or 30 mins later. Only for the player to renage. As for Ian Moore, he was only reported on after he'd turned us down. Don't think the Latics have done much wrong in the reporting, which is why I was utterly hacked off once the Liverpool reserve player turned us down. TBH, I just seriously can't understand that decision.....the lad's clearly going nowhere at Liverpool. Didn't do owt at Luton, was sent packing from Palace very publicly. WTF does he or his agent think he's going to do next? Suddenly find the ability to make it at Liverpool? Hope I never hear of the prat in football again! EDIT: Seems I won't....just read in the other thread about him that he's off to play with his Wacker in Austria! Gone and now forgotten..... PS On Vernon, can ya imagine if someone had said to you a few years back, one day Scott Vernon and Teddy Sheringham will lead the strikeforce for a team....they'd have been phoning for the men in the white coats! It's a funny owd game...good luck Scott.....keep them up please, I never want to go back to Layer Road at this level, ever again!

Still, he's clearly not good enough for us according to some on here. We'll be in the same division next year, I can't see how him signing for the "mighty" Colchester makes him good enough, or otherwise, to play for us.

Senor_Coconut Posted February 2, 2008 Author Share Posted February 2, 2008 Ye...i mean Col U are some kind of awesome team challenging for the championship aint they. Nah, just a team who's done a hell of alot better than we have in recent years and play in a division above. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kellys_discopants Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 Nah, just a team who's done a hell of alot better than we have in recent years and play in a division above. A league above yes ... but not for long, look at the table, there bottom pal. So basically next season, despite them "doing a hell of alot better than us in recent years" well be in the same division. Hmmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boundaryblue80 Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 (edited) Come on guys....stop trying to argue black is white....he's playing for a side in the Championship. Don't give a damn what club it is or their position...or even where they "might" be next season....he's playing there coz he's earned that right and is better than this level and the club hope he finds the goals to keep them at that level (possibly, shock, cozhe's got them at that level with another club.) Despite you agreeing or not on his abilities. Would've been a good signing for us, but alas, we're not at a level to challenge for his signature. And that's the way it is.

kellys_discopants Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 I never did actually state he wasnt good enough .. just saying Col U arent exactly greats .... thats all. Geesh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
