Can I just say how shocked I am to see endless posts about semantics. Didn't see that coming.

RIP thread

I was reading the posts on page 4 and got so fed up, I jumped to page 8 and it was still going

Thanks to TOOR and his alter ego Winston.

"It’s only an opinion in that moment. Did I change my opinion? Yes. That’s true. It’s better to change an opinion than to never have one."

Well, he has.

With respect, I think you may have the wrong end of the stick with what he meant, which is why you can't understand what he's changed his opinion about.

For me, it's pretty clear.

Not that it is a criticism - he's perfectly entitled to change his mind on that.

egg butties at a buffet in a common social club - yay or nay ?

It's not TOOR's fault what happened, nor is it mine - but the thread is still salvageable and some of the discussions are fine.

Yes, if only we could all contribute with the sort of input that you and GT have offered here - the thread would be fine then.


----------------------------------------------------------------------

You went off topic in your replies and I got Winston'd .


----------------------------------------------------------------------

You dragged it off topic, not me.

Just like every single time this happens.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Ok.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

No it isn't.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm ok though. So....
----------------------------------------------------------------------

That made no sense in terms of what I said.

There's no reason for you to keep posting this crap. Don't complain about the thread being ruined when you're doing this every time.

No chance for me but Toor and Manfrom wash their chicken in the sink so they'll probably eat them off the floor.

"It’s only an opinion in that moment. Did I change my opinion? Yes. That’s true. It’s better to change an opinion than to never have one."

Well, he has.

With respect, I think you may have the wrong end of the stick with what he meant, which is why you can't understand what he's changed his opinion about.

For me, it's pretty clear.

Not that it is a criticism - he's perfectly entitled to change his mind on that.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
So go on then, what did he mean?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
There's also the possibility that he didn't change his opinion but in public said what he thought would be best to say, as all professionals are taught to do.

Since he said that, he hasn't been asked about it. I changed my opinion, bang, no more questions and accusations of being a hypocrite.

I think it's better to assess what he said and what he has actually do, to find the hypocritical view. I don't see where he has went against what he said. He hasn't spent £100m, he hasn't went out and bought a load of top players and some can do that more than us. Nothing that has actually happened since goes against this feeling.

Jeez - if your only argument is that he lied to shut the media up then this isn't going to be much of a debate.

So go on then, what did he mean?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I think he meant that he wouldn't buy individual players for big sums - relatively speaking.

The part where he walks about if they get injured then you're stuff, means to me that he is saying he doesn't want to bring in expensive individuals that the team relies upon.

I think he then realised how important a couple of positions were for him and decided that spending big in those areas was necessary to move to the next level.

Obviously we can all interpret his words differently but the fact he's come out, laughed at himself and then admitted he changed his mind is fairly conclusive I'd say.
