BBC Get Involved - one that got away

[f.t.r.s]

Moutinho

Was never happening.

His agent just used them for leverage.

Our ex manager the late Walter Smith paved the way Man United's no 2 & as soon as the deal was done - he disappeared form Man U - Newcastle offered us more cash too.. then we ended up with United's rejects - Tim Howard early on being the best buy....

 

[Double Negative]

Tim Cahill - Man of principle Simon Jordan refused to pay Cahill’s agent any money as part of the deal (all agreed with Millwall, and agreed personal terms with Cahill). “Take it from you client” said the bombastic tangoed idiot.
Deal off and he ended up going to…..oh I can’t remember now.

Brilliant

 

[Alan Whittle]

Brilliant

I’m doing him a right favour there as well, believe me.

Shrek himself said the other club he got closest to was Chelsea as Kenwright did it behind his back (Chelsea were going to loan him to Middlesbrough straight away).

No mention of the horse punchers getting close

In his 2006 book Rooney said he would've gone to Newcastle had Man Utd not come in for him he was that desperate to get away from the City of Liverpool and David Moyes. What Rooney got wrong was he had 2 years left on his contract not 3 as he states in this.View attachment 317058

Wasn't that the book which was all BS? had to pay damages to Moyes who he gave to charity.

I like Rooney and he was a wonderful footballer but for a lad who kissed the united badge twice , libelled our then manager , airbrushed the likes of Colin Harvey out of his career and basically scarpered at the first glance of united fluttering their eye lashes then the lad doesn’t half get an easy ride here .

Posted with knowledge that apparently Kenwright kidnapped him and dragged him up the m62

He essentially kept the lights on at Goodison with his transfer fee
As did the Arteta sale

Blame Mr Kenwright for all of this and the current state of the club

Oh I do blame Kenwright for this and much much more , I just don’t buy poor Wayne and his agent Paul stretford were pushed around by Everton .

Thats The same Paul stretford who was accused of lying consistently about when he signed Rooney including in the crown court causing a trial to collapse . Coincidently he sighed with Rooney just in time to facilitate the lucrative Rooney deal .

 

[KaiserEFC]

Absolutely visionary stuff by Kenwright to get teams into a bidding war and still be unable to get a record fee for what the entire world knew was a generational talent.

What a chairman.

He had to ‘airbrush’ out the great Colin Harvey as he kept getting him and Coleen mixed up.

 

[irishtony1878]

The one that got away wasn't a player.
Bobby Robson had agreed to become our new manager and the story goes that he asked for it to be kept out of the press until he had told the Ipswich board face to face that he was leaving, of course someone blabbed and the rest is history.
He was made for Everton.

 

[Bazlar]

All of us knew he was going to Utd 12 months before it actually happened
