[Confirmed] Naughton Bid Accepted

Another?

Who was the other top class defender?

He's one of your better players and missed the Final through injury

He's called Phil, played for England. Surely you know him

Oh him, i can get confused when people say 1 of our better players referring to him. I am not his greatest fan to be honest and he got found out when playing for England. Not a patch on JL & JY but i know you guys loved him

Fairly surprised at that to be honest, I've spoken to plenty of Everton fans who all absolutely love him.

Yeh some are confused. They are confused by commitment and skill, some cant tell the difference, i am sure you have it at your club as well

Well if Jags isn't enough to impress you, then you'll be far from happy with Naughton. He isn't exactly a finished article.

Jags would be good for say a Blackburn or a club of that nature (Mid table), nowhere near good enough for a club with Top 4 aspirations or England level. As for Naughton, i havent seen much of him, bar a few games but i think he is very overpriced for a kid of that experience

Jags can't be that good, after all he only won the player of the year for them!

It s a free market....if someone want to pay that lot of money, well, let them pay.

Well if you don't want him, we'll gladly welcome him back with open arms!

Would love to say Yes to that but i am in the minority unfortunately and Moyesy likes him.
Can i interest you in a 32yr old vintage from Bury? Only 2 owners and lots of shiny medals (Not for us though!):thumbup:

If Everton have got the face on because we'd like more money for Naughton and Spurs or anyone else are willing to offer it, then tough shit. If nothing has been signed then there is nowt they can do.
Unless Everton would rather we didn't get the best price we can for our player, repeat, OUR PLAYER.

And yes, Jags is rubbish, bears don't poo in the woods, Cristiano Ronaldo isn't a diving cheat, and Hillsborough isn't a crumbling shithole.

The price was good enough for you on fri, why isnt it now?

It's not that it isn't good for us, it's cos Spurs have offered us more!

Good to see Spurs dont think they can compete with us, so have gone higher with a bid to try and cut us out.

 

[happyhippy]

Because there may be a better deal for Sheffield United and Kyle Naughton. Ultimately it's his hand which holds the pen which signs the contract, so if Spurs offered him £1m and a golden unicorn a day, but he wanted to go to Goodison, then he'd go to Goodison.

One should never count one's chickens.

Let's put it another way.

You have your car for sale. One bloke offers you what you consider to be a good price. The next bloke sees it the day after and offers you nearly twice as much. The first bloke seems a nice fella, the second is a shady cockney twat but has more money than sense and wants to give it to you in exchange for your little Ford Ka.

Do you :

A. Take the first bloke's money. He seems a nice man.

B. Take the second bloke's money. He is indeed a twat of the highest order, but he's a twat with a massive wad just burning a hole in his pearly trousers, and despite calling the cash a "monkey" or a "pony" or some other animal-related bollocks, he wants that Ka and he'll give you more than the first bloke.

Hmmmmm, a tricky one, I don't think.

Ah but i have morals, Fat 'Arry doesnt. Will sell it to the 1st one as i had already reached an agreement i was happy with

Because it suited you, and for no other reason. You must remember that United had agreed terms, and Kyle hadn't (yet). Nothing was signed. If you've been gazumped, then sorry mate, but that's hard cheese.

We don't want to see him go at all, never mind fans of other clubs stamping their feet about something which isn't in their club's control.

 

[SwissBlade]

Ha ha nice one Halewood Toffee! I have your dummy here that you just spat out.

Jags is your best defender and possibly your best player, he was good enough to make the England fold some he must have done something right.

As for Naughton, you're jumping on the bandwagon of your local rag, nothing official has come out about the Naughton Transfer to say that we've gone back on our word.

Its already been said here, that Naughton hasn't agreed anything with anyone.

So by rights SUFC could even accept a lower bid from another club and let Naughton talk to them.

Basically you have no hold on him so keep your teddies in your pram until its sorted.

Jags our best player? :lol::lol::lol::lol:

He is our best player from Sale, i will grant you that

I have a good friend who supports Everton and he says he's first on the teamsheet.

All about opinions though.

If he's crap can we have him on loan?

Arteta
Cahill

Are at least 2 players who would be on the teamsheet before him

Only going on what one of your fans say.

I can tell you one fact that will annoy...

Mr Naughton, was quite firmly in Sheffield this morning, inside the city boundaries, inside the council tax boundaries...
In Sheffield United team wear

 

[Linz]

I'm locking this thread as it's a bit huge and meandered wildly off-topic last night.

By all means start another one, but do try and remember what exactly you're talking about.

As riveting as the debate as to the North West's council tax boundaries was, I'm not sure this board can take much more excitement along the same lines.
